poind Posted February 2, 2004 Share Posted February 2, 2004 Well, in terms of healthy for you, swimming and rowing (even a rowing machine) tend to give the best overall aerobic workouts with relatively minimal risk of injury, and can continue to be pursued as one ages. In terms of sports revenue / stability, the NFL and NBA both do quite well. *However*, TV revenue has traditionally played a pretty big role, and as time has gone on, it's kind of being found that sports don't get quite the audiences they once did, and if anything can be a loss to networks that host them. Way too many competing sports, TV programs/channels and so on now. Some networks continue to like the historical "prestige" of hosting some sports, but it might be pretty interesting over time how much they're truly considered worth. Networks themselves aren't making back in ad revenue what they're paying to host some things, and that's only going to go on for so long.

(i.e. poll question: what sport is the most healthy in term of revenu ($)) At least I read it as "what sport will be healthy for sometime with its revenue earnings?"

lawtai Posted February 3, 2004 Share Posted February 3, 2004 I'd say soccer would require you to be the most fit since you run the most in soccer, and you can't be weak either otherwise you'dbe thrown all over the place. In terms of money generated, I'd have to say the NFL.

nims Posted February 4, 2004 Share Posted February 4, 2004 Like Catnip said....The NFL is the most financially healthy. NHL is near broke, in more ways than one. how much does like the best player in NFL get? because in football (soccer) players make wayy more money than all other sports and so do the teams Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/131543-what-sport-is-the-most-healthy/page/2/#findComment-1688985 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred Derf Veteran Posted February 4, 2004 Veteran Share Posted February 4, 2004 ? Golf...?the most healthiest in terms of you not busting urself for the most amount of money... I agree, the PGA Tour. They probably bag the most money. Was the NHL left off the list because nobody cared about hockey or because there is no way that they are in the running to be the healthiest league?

Wannes Posted February 10, 2004 Share Posted February 10, 2004 That is only if you win. Only one person out of the xxxx persons will go home with that money. I think the poll is here to see what sport is the cheapest to play. :) -Couch Potato?

CrimsonBlur Posted February 10, 2004 Share Posted February 10, 2004 I'd say, if we're talking worldwide, then soccer (football) has the highest revenue, largest audiences and is far more popular in more countries than NFL football or NBA basketball. If we're strictly talking USA, then the NFL definately makes the most money, and garners the most fans. I think it is silly to think that the NBA or NFL is more popular around the world than soccer. World Cup anyone? I know soccer isn't that popular in the US, but everywhere else on the earth except maybe Canada soccer is the #1 sport by a long shot.
