U.S. map of highest paid public employees in each state

I caught this map on Doobybrain via Deadspin and was a little shocked to find that the highest paid public employee in the majority of our states is a Football Coach. I find it difficult to wrap my head around the fact that athletic coaches are probably making more in their salaries than public officials like your mayor, governor, or senator.

    Gee, I wonder why the U S no longer excels in math and science any more? So glad we dominate the world in a sport only we play. That matters so much.
