2008 MLS salaries: all players
BETHESDA, Md. (AP) — A list of 2008 Major League Soccer players’ salaries, as released Friday by the MLS Players Union. Information is as of March 31, and figures are rounded to the nearest dollar.
The guarantee is the base salary plus a prorated share of signing bonuses and other guaranteed income under the player’s contract, and it includes marketing bonuses payable in the current year and a prorated shared of any agent’s fees during the term of the contract.
Figures include compensation from MLS contracts and do not include any compensation from any contracts with individual teams or their affiliates.
And I coded 'em up all nice and pretty-like:
