What are the top revenue generating football teams in the U.S., I wonder?

The Boston Red Sox, with more than $2 billion in revenue for the 2017 season.  And the New York Yankees, with over $3 billion.  After that, the next revenue top three in order are the Chicago Cubs, the Dallas Cowboys, and the New England Patriots.

While those numbers are 2017, a few years ago, those teams do seem to be the most popular in the news.

Yes, according to Google Trends and GoStats, the Boston Red Sox, the New York Yankees, and the New England Patriots, are some of the most popular search terms in the U.S.

You may be right. Sure seems to contribute to large stadiums, at my local colleges. A lot of people flock to the games.

I agree. Sports is fun and often provides a spectacle, which might add to the attraction of watching from the stadium. But I think the largest reason is the overall wealth of these sports teams.

I volunteer at homeless shelters on Superbowl Sunday. They have double the abusive survivors at the shelters that day, due to the sport. They contribute some kindness, and also, cultural violence at times.

You mean when people get abusive to each other at sporting events, like football or basketball or hockey games?

If I had to guess, there is a connection between large amounts of wealth and the abuse of that wealth.  That is, people who are rich abuse people, and people with too much wealth in general, and I believe it’s worse when they have a lot of power over other people.
