Bell Curve
Leave Quidditch to the Witches. Salary: $0
You sign up for your college Quidditch team thinking it was the same as rugby. It's not. You trip on your broomstick and it smacks you in the head. You don't end up playing any rugby but you get the concussion anyway. Womp womp.
Think of the Children. Salary: $10,000
You quit school and your job to play professional rugby. It turns out you don't want to leave America, so instead you sign on to coach for the Girls and Boys Club. You don’t actually get to play the sport, but at least you're taking home a salary for your time.
Hey, at Least You're Ripped. Salary: $24,000
You're living the life, playing for the Men's Seven's Team. Your team's actually in the World Rugby series, which is pretty great for a bunch of part-timers. You wish you made more than a hundred bucks a day, but at least it beats a real job. Hopefully your body will hold up long enough for them to make the sport pro in the U.S.
Le Rugby Star. Salary: $75,000
After being a "star" on the USA Rugby team, you decide to make the move to France where you can play for a hot pro team and actually be respected. Your coach and teammates like you, even if they treat you like you don't speak the language. You totally do, as long as they don't mind the only word you say is fromage.
Invictus Maximus. Salary: $200,000
You're recruited for an English rugby team, and everyone's impressed by your amazing skills. You become a star in your new country, where the fans cheer your name everywhere you go. You make lots of money and live in a small chateau that looks like a mini-castle. You're even starting to appreciate blood pudding and have learned all the words to "God Save the Queen."
