how do professional sports teams earn money when they pay huge salaries to their players?

Answer 1

Ticket prices are higher than ever, & as an example , the park seats 50,000 & the average ticket price is at least $20, that's a million a night for gate. The average fan spends at least $10 on concessions, that's another half million per game. This example is based on baseball numbers. Football & basketball tickets have a higher average price.

Then there are the sky suite rentals & the catering for them.

The big three MLB, NFL, & NBA get paid millions for the right to broadcast their games on television & radio.

Finally add in their share of the leagues profit from selling team gear & stuff.

Making extra money on the web is pretty easy.

1- Build an online space (http://blogger.com, Yahoo!360, msn livespace). Choose topics you like. Gaming, nusiness, sports, fitness, internet, computers, cars,....

2- Link it with a site monetizer such as adSense (http://openadsense.com) or Yahoo! or MSN (offered with msn live spaces in options). My favorite is Google adSense and it's really easy to link with Blogger. Turn on all features to allow others to syndicate your posts.

3- Start posting on your site. Post a few times a day.

4- Post on any forums or site you can find that is related to your topics. Do not spam. Build yourself a clean identity on the web. Always add your site url.

5- On your site/Blog, offer yourself to answer questions.

That's the way I do and I earn near 20 US$ for one hour of work.

Good luck !
