25 Top-Paid Athletes in the World
In the list compiled annually by ESPN The Magazine, Flacco came in tied at #9 with Matt Ryan.

The list is interesting (and outrageous, Matt Stafford at #6) in itself.
Now, please let me know if the following bit is just Baltimore complex. Here's all the ties in the list:
#9 Matt Ryan
#9 Joe Flacco
#12 Fernando Alonso
#12 Lewis Hamilton
#16 Ryan Howard
#16 Calvin Johnson
#16 Cliff Lee
#16 Peyton Manning
#20 Robinson Cano
#20 Prince Fielder
#20 Vladimir Klitschko
#25 Albert Pujols
#25 CC Sabathia
In ALL cases, of which there were plenty, ESPN used alphabetical order to list the names, EXCEPT in the case of Flacco and Ryan. Somehow, they HAD to put Ryan ahead of Flacco. Revealing.
