Good luck with a masters in sports management.
That being said, I enjoyed graduate school, received a monthly stipend, not much but it paid what few bills I had and allowed for beer and fishing money. I was also able to get all of my tuition waived by working, doing research and teaching, you should look into that, I wouldn't take out another loan to get the degree you want.
Classes are smaller, I took one or two a semester, professors become actual people and treat you like a person. Going to conferences and hooking up with girls from other colleges is also a nice perk. I also treated it like a job, I worked/studied from 9-5 every day, when I got home I was done, no studying after 5. You also have to stay on top of your work, if you get behind you are fricked. Undergrads think you are the greatest thing since sliced bread. That's pretty much my experience for my two graduate degrees.

Well good thing I didn't apply yet for Sports Management yet. Funny I literally just talked to a buddy who has that degree and he told me to run like hell.
