This must be a factor, but it is interesting how much more it has impacted Italy
than Spain or even England. Spain has had severe economic problems of its own in the last 8 years or so, yet their league has held up much better than Italy's. England's economy has had severe challenges too, if less than Italy and Spain -- but in the case of the EPL, I think the massive petrodollars flowing in from Russian oligarchs and Middle Eastern sheiks have been the difference. We'll see what happens in the EPL now that oil prices are tanking.
