The Association or the League


The NBA.


Less chance of some debilitating injury during my career :deadmanny:
Lesser ailments in my body(note I didn't say there wouldn't be any ailments) after retirement. :old:
Plus I'd still be a pro athlete making pro athlete money. :win:

Easy choice.


And yes I like, no, love football far more than basketball.
Work smart, not hard. :ufdup:

NBA is waaaay harder but who wouldn't rather be a NBA star than a football star:childplease:?
i definitely don't agree with nba being harder... how do you figure that?

i mean maybe defense in the nfl.. where you have someone who is just designed to rush the passer or some shyt

but the qb position.. middle linebacker.. cornerbacks.. shyt... every damn position is harder in the nfl.. look at their playbooks.. look how hard they have to train for 1 game.. look how much practice goes into 1 game.. the wear and tear on your body.. the avg 4 year playing career.. the 22 people on the field and the rest warming the bench or playing a few plays a game

you can throw any nikka a ball and say go shoot up.. there's not much to LEARN.. you just gotta be GREAT at it

but throw a nikka a football and tell him to run a 5 step drop corner route throw after reading the defense.. and if they are in a zone read, then audible to the shotgun and give me a slant to the open man

Just seems to me like being great at NBA level basketball is harder than being great at NFL level football imo....and more importantly they play about 5 times the amount of games in the nba and its fewer roster spots....as physical as nfl is the nba is very physical too,injuries might be more severe in nfl but lets not act like NBA players aint in pain:heh:

Football players get fukked dirty despite it being by far the highest grossing league they are the worst paid and have the worst union
Highest grossing is not everything, Gross/capita is the interesting thing and NFL has a revenue of 9.5 billion with 1600-1700 players. While NBA has 5 billion with 350-450 players.
So in the way we compare countries, NBA is easily the richest league following by MLB them NFL and lastly NHL.
