In india (except cricketers) sportsmen are paid like peanuts. Its the politicians and the people who can cheat that reap all the moolah. The people who dig roads n all, put in 100% perspiration and are paid so much that they will always remain below the powerty line. The Demand and Supply theory works here too but it results in a lot of injustice to all. BTW...all this brings the song "Where is the Love" by Black Eyed Peas to mind, dosen't it?
