Does Wilson have some other job that we don't know about? Maybe he's a corporate lawyer during the off-season. Or did he win $55 M on the celebrity poker tour? Actually, hasn't he been on some stupid show like 'dancing wth the stars'?

This is why i was arguing that he would be wise to sign for below market value and have better talent around him. Success on the field opens up other revenue opportunities.

I think he's wise to not follow your advice . His revenue is fine.

His revenue is fine now, but winning one or more additional SB's could have a huge impact on his earning power later in life. It's about finding that optimal balance between cashing in now and building image (or name recognition) for future ventures.

So does anyone know what Wilson's additional $65 M in earnings/winnings came from?
