Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion
Bery, bery interesting indeed which is why I did more digging as I had heard that the NFL had the most lucrative sports franchises in the world and how could that be if it wasn't in the top 10?! I had to find out for myself if this was the "American" world or the actual world. So, I copied some data from here - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_professional_sports_leagues_by_revenue, (it's supposed to contain the currently available data) copied data from all entries entitled "Association Football" and "American Football" (sorted by revenue), removed some extraneous data and then put them in a BBcode table... hopefully I didn't mess up the data too much. You'll have to take my word if you don't want to do the math but all of the other top earners that are Football but aren't "American" Football add up to 17815 (€ mil) and I find it utterly mind-blowing that the NFL outdoes that with 19299 (€ mil) thereby dominating the #1 spot.

Correct source, copied incorrectly (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_professional_sports_leagues_by_revenue):
NFL-yes, 19,929 mil euro
Then:
Premier League (England) 7100
La Liga (Spain) 5240
Bundesliga (Germany) 4452 (not your low number)
Seria A (Italy) 3618
Ligue 1 (France) 2378
MLS (USA) 2233
Braziliero seria A (Brazil) 1705
Japan 1506
India 1087
English Footbal league championship (second division) 1060
Russia 1050
smaller leagues-in the billions too.
Bottom line: 5 european majors-22788, which is > than 19929
If you add worldwide, more than 33 bil.
Than said, NFL revenue is impressive...not surprising with $100 for a salad and $60 for a beer in the stands
Thanks for checking me! I just repeated my method and for some reason when I import the data into LibreCalc, it messes up some entries in the "Sports" field which is what I sorted on. I can see when I repeat it that many entries are missing which I could have detected by simply taking a look. Man, that was terrible... my apologies to everyone!
