The average NFL team is now worth $960 Million (1 Viewer)

[longtime lurker]

Some interesting $$$ numbers on the state of the NFL:

...Over the past 12 years, the NFL's average
team value has gone from $160 million to around $960 million, eclipsing the
other major leagues and creating a new generation of multi-million dollar
sports dynasties.

While the industry in aggregate is doing quite well, the wealth is not
evenly distributed by sport (nor across the individual teams that make up a
league). Franchised football teams currently earn around 25 percent of the
franchise sports industry revenue with an average game attendance of 67,738
people, led by the Washington Redskins (87,631), New York Giants (76,613),
and Kansas City Chiefs (77,909). Annually, a staggering 150 million people
worldwide tune in to the Super Bowl on TV, 90 percent of NFL games are sell
outs, and U.S. networks pay more than $3 billion a year to broadcast games.
The combined revenue for the 32 NFL teams for the 2006 season was $6.54
billion.

i estimate that about 3.3 o the 6.5 billion is in ticket sales to actual games.

So if the ticket prices to all games were cut in half the league would still be making 5 billion a year.

I love the saints, but i'm turning against the NFL. Its not about the game anymore. Hasn't been for a long time.

Dont expect owners to part with 1.5 bil for the sake of the fans.
