David Beckham ($29 million), who joins the Los Angeles Galaxy after his contract for Real Madrid ends in June, misses the top spot for the first time since Forbes rankings began in 2004. His five-year deal, which gives him a cut of all ticket sales and a 44 percent share of the take from sales of all Galaxy team jerseys (for sure his name is going to help selling a lot of them), could be worth $250 million.
