Lebron James, like all athletes, works for himself.
Nike owes him $90M (unless lebron is stupid and does a Jay Williams motorcycle bike ride)..and Lebron gets that as long as he doesn't commit an illegal act that nullifies the contract.
Lebron could be a humungous flop, and he'll still get his money
thus, Lebron works for Lebron

I don't believe they owe it to him, I believe he owes his services to Nike and then they owe him. Could be a difference there, JMO.

Ryan... maybe I read the article wrong, but I thought he got 1 Million for Upper Deck. I don't see how a card company could afford 75 Million.
