Dan has my favorite take on the Browning story here.
$100k sounds like a lot of money to owe in child support.  But we're dealing with someone who should be worth multiple millions.  Of course, I have no idea what he's currently worth...but according to BRef, Browning made $16,713,333 in his 12-year big league career. 
So, his back child support amounts to 0.5% of his total earnings.  That's before the considerable money he should have made with via investments over the years.
For comparison, let's say I make a $40k salary and work for 12 years.  I'd make $480,000 total.  0.5% of that is $2,400. 
I hesitate to get too judgemental without hearing Browning's side... but still, pay up, Tom.
