NFL-joukkueen arvo on siis keskimäärin noin 2,5 kertainen jalkapallojoukkeen arvoon.
AVERAGE TEAM VALUES
1. NFL (32 teams): $5.11B

Revenuessa on eroa, mutta se ei yksinään selitä arvojen eroa...The Cowboys generated $1.14 billion in revenue last season as well as operating income (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) of $500 million...
Realilla, Cityllä ja Manulla noin $800 M
TV-oikeudet The league now has five television deals that will kick in this season and, when combined with Amazon’s AMZN -4.4% Thursday Night Football deal that started in 2022, are guaranteed to yield $125.5 billion through 2033. The actual amount of television money the NFL receives by 2033 will likely be considerably more than that because the league has an option to extend its agreement with Disney into 2033, and the Sunday Ticket commercial rights (bars, restaurants) should generate a least another $1.4 billion by the end of 2029.
These TV deals, when combined with the NFL’s salary cap ($208.6 million per team last season), make football the most scalable business in sports. NFL:n tv-oikeudet vuosille 23-33 :

The Tennessee Titans, up 26%, to $4.4 billion, will receive $1.26 billion of public financing for a $2.1 billion stadium that is expected to open in 2027. The Titans will run the stadium, which, given Nashville’s vibrant economy, is expected to generate tens of millions of dollars in additional revenue for the team.
Lipputulot + tulot muista tapahtumista + sponsorisopimukset ovat ainakin joillakin seuroilla korkeat... The Las Vegas Raiders also have a relatively new stadium in the hottest market in sports. The team pulled in over $90 million in ticket revenue last season, tops in the NFL. And with a vast lineup of non-NFL events, including concerts and soccer games, the Raiders raked in another $70 million-plus, also a league high. All told, the Raiders are worth $6.2 billion, 22% more than a year ago.
The Miami Dolphins increased an impressive 24% in value, to $5.7 billion this year. The team has leveraged its ownership of Hard Rock Stadium to bring concerts, tennis, college football and Formula 1 to Magic City.
Cleveland, meanwhile, isn’t exactly enjoying a booming economy, but the Browns have been pushing ticket price increases and adding sponsors. By Forbes’ count, the team’s ticket revenue has doubled over the past five years, to over $78 million, and stadium advertising and sponsorship revenue has climbed nearly 70%, to some $50 million.
NFL tulee kasvattamaan sallitun velan määrää ja pienentämään "general partenerin" omistuksen minimimäärää, jolloin joukkueet tehdään houkuttelevammiksi uusille omistajille ja saadaan lisää liikettä rattaisiin 
To make it easier to buy a team going forward, the NFL will very likely have to relax some of its stringent rules for future owners. League rules currently stipulate that a general partner must own at least 30% of a team, much stricter than the NBA (15%), MLB (15%) and NHL (20%) rules. The NFL is going to increase its debt limit over the next several months. Currently, teams can have $600 million of debt, and a prospective buyer is permitted to have up to $1.1 billion of debt. Before the next team goes on the market, those figures are going to increase to $1 billion and $1.5 billion, respectively, according to team owners who spoke with Forbes, making it easier for a general partner to come up with that 30%.
NFL organisaationa ja sen joukkueet saavat edullista lainaa ja joukkueilla on vähän lainaa suhteessa arvoon. ... the league has an “A” credit rating on its $1.27 billion in new debt from Fitch in March. And by Forbes’ estimation, NFL team debt is an average of just 9% of team values.
Keittiökonsultin nopea yhteenveto eurooppalaisille suurseuroille:
1) Parempia = kalliimpia tv-sopimuksia (jonka seurauksena Viaplayn ja Cmoren hinta saadaan tuplattua)
2) Paikallinen sopiminen ei toimi, koska sen avulla pelaajat voivat sanella ehdot seuroille eli epäsymmetrisessä neuvotteluasetelmassa seurat ovat liian heikkoja jonka vuoksi tarvitaan minimisään palkkakatot. Huom. edelleen on siis mahdollista että kukaan ei tienaa Cityssä enempää kuin Kevin.
3) Stadionit kuntoon puoliksi julkisella rahalla ja sinne kaikki mahdollinen häppening.
4) Lippujen ja sponsorisopimusten hintaa nostettava
5) Sääntöjä, jotka mahdollistavat seuran omistuksen siirtymisen erittäin varakkaille toimijoille, tulee edistää.
6) Enemmän on enemmän. Tämä vähän abstrakti ohje jättää tilaa sen paikalliseen soveltamiseen.
