Just noticed this thread.

I would say that one thing helping ( at least in basketball and baseball) is the ridiculous 100+ game seasons. That's alot of tickets being sold. You also have the "best of" playoffs, which rake in big money.

I dislike both sports for that reason. You can drop 20 games in a row and still have a championship season. Madness.

In the NFL every game is important. You can't just shrug your shoulders and say, "We'll get next week." Also, in football players wear helmets which hide their faces and can make them less of a commodity. In the NBA every other player is a star.
