    I was reading that MLS isn't making money for its investors. I was just curious, how much does the average player make?

    An average player makes $1 million? How much does one of the best players in the league, say... ........McBride, makes?

    He's yanking your chain.

    The league 'maximum' is $250,000, per player and the team salary cap is about 1.7 million.

    So, figure it out from there.

    Low end is $25,000 a year, high is $270,000. There are other bonuses and sponser money.
