Editorial interest 84/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A satirical sports tracker ranks professional athletes by salary collected during games they did not play.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-14 issue.

Field notes

The site applies one stated calculation across NBA, MLB, and NHL records: base salary divided by games, multiplied by games missed. Its homepage separates 22 confirmed players from five Bust Watch entries and displays availability percentages alongside career inactive-salary totals. The page says it relies on public salary and game-log reporting, while excluding bonuses, endorsements, and forfeitures. Individual case files and an All players view are available through the public navigation.
