The 'Pro Athlete Fee' is an interesting spin, and not something that gets any press. I assume it's one of the ways the state recovers the monies laid out to subsidize a stadium - the owners get tax breaks, concessions stands in a public building, profit from parking fees to keep the teams in the state- and it gets clawed back from the athletes who have much less say over where they go.
Is medicare is also a %age of gross? 20K*12 months = 240K, pretty crazy amount. I'm guessing significantly more than you'd pay for the best in private coverage...
