:dwillhuh: Is that really true?? If it is, that's ridiculous. On every level (High School, College, & Pros), Basketball is more popular & gets more media attention/exposure than Baseball.

basketball is a global sport not the nba




I see you skipped the part about the mlb giving the nba that work :pachaha:


No, the NBA is a global league, hence all these players coming from all over the world.


The NBA revenue is increasing, you're using outdated numbers when the cap is damn near doubling in the next year. The NFL is tapped out, the only place it can go is down, no other country fukks with it heavy like that, the NBA will just continue to keep growing larger and larger :yeshrug:

NFL players are fukked...unless you're a top tier QB you have zero leverage. New dudes emerge as elite players every season in the NFL. Practically everyone is expendable.

You think a dude gonna come off the bench in the NBA and suddenly turn into a unstoppable monster like Devonta Freeman did? shyt doesn't happen.

Mlb revenue destroys the nba :pachaha:

:dwillhuh: Is that really true?? If it is, that's ridiculous. On every level (High School, College, & Pros), Basketball is more popular & gets more media attention/exposure than Baseball.

It's true but it's misleading because of amount of games, 82 NBA and 162 for MLB and also stadium size = more $$

List of Major League Baseball stadiums - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

List of National Basketball Association arenas - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Yeah, that's makes sense. This is the only thing that could explain MLB making more revenue than the NBA.

Your right on this....But it is weird who is actually watching baseball? Never seem to see many talking about it, most can't name many of the players, the players don't really do many endorsements...Its weird....NBA Free agency is legit more popular than the Baseball world series.

Baseball is struggling to hook kids — and risks losing fans to other sports

Baseball, for decades now the national pastime only through the nostalgic lens of history, is a thriving business. Revenue is at an all-time high. Attendance in the 30 major league parks and in minor leagues around the country is strong. Baseball players on average make half again as much money as football players. But since he took office this year, Manfred has been sounding a startling warning bell: The sport must address its flagging connection to young people or risk losing a generation of fans.

On opening day of the 140th season since the National League was founded, baseball’s following is aging. Its TV audience skews older than that of any other major sport, and across the country, the number of kids playing baseball continues a two-decade-long decline.

Baseball has been defying predictions of its fall — because of overexpansion, or because of the decline of small-town America, or because Americans soured on nostalgia — since the 1920s. And the game remains the second-most popular sport for kids to play, after basketball. “Baseball is an extraordinarily healthy entertainment product,” Manfred says.

But the pervasive impact of new technologies on how children play and the acceleration of the pace of modern life have conspired against sports in general and baseball in particular.

According to Nielsen ratings, 50 percent of baseball viewers are 55 or older, up from 41 percent 10 years ago. ESPN, which airs baseball, football and basketball games, says its data show the average age of baseball viewers rising well above that of other sports: 53 for baseball, 47 for the NFL (also rising fast) and 37 for the NBA, which has kept its audience age flat.

Young people are not getting into baseball as fans as they once did: For the first time, the ESPN Sports Poll’s annual survey of young Americans’ 30 favorite sports figures finds no baseball players on the list. Adults 55 and older are 11 percent more likely than the overall population to say they have a strong interest in baseball, whereas those in the 18 to 34 age group are 14 percent less likely to report such interest, according to a study by Nielsen Scarborough. Kids ages 6-17 made up 7 percent of the TV audience for postseason games a decade ago; in the past couple of years, that figure is down to 4 percent.
