Paid so much? What if a wee tad of that coin "makes it back, after taxes" in small, untraceable bills?

Gosh... imagine that? Nahhh, couldn't be, could it? And, it could never happen with the players, could it? Nahhh.

The club owners would never launder money through their players and coaching staff would they? That would be deceitful... dishonest... illegal by way of tax evasion! Nahhhh... paying millions to athletes and coaching staff is just good business. Gives the fans the chance to see the very best players compete.
