Is This Fair?
When I was growing up, a friend and I posited a law of averages with respect to talent which would dictate that anyone who is more gifted than average in one area would have to be less gifted than average in another area to balance it out. So attractive people would be less intelligent, bright people would be athletically challenged, etc. If so, how is one to explain Milene Domingues, Ronaldo's wife, who just transferred from Italy to Spain to follow her husband for a record transfer fee for a woman of a little over $300,000?
"Ronaldinha", as she has been dubbed by the Spanish media, is rated as one of the best female footballers in Europe.
The ex-model also holds the record for ball juggling, keeping a football off the ground with 55,197 touches.
As a point of reference, the maximum salary for men in Major League Soccer is believed to be about half of her $300,000 transfer fee. How likely is it that their children will play football?
