baseball

longer career with more money to be made than football, hockey, soccer, boxing etc (anything other than golf or poker)

plus, not being a household name in europe etc is a good thing. you can vacation in europe, asia, south america etc and not be constantly pestered by fans who think your celebrity entitles them to insert themselves into your private life.

Soccer. I adopted my daughter from China in 2009. I saw a ton of soccer jerseys. Besides the U.S. You could go to just about any place on the planet and they know soccer. But I get the point of populations.

I think people are somewhat overstating golf simply because of how polarizing Tiger is. He's so far the extreme that it's hard to compare him to anyone else, and I think it's more than just his success. It's his name, the fact that he's a minirity, he's jacked, etc.


Tiger makes a frick ton of money because ehe was so dominant for so long. Sure not being tedious helps, but the GOAT golfer is going to make bank

Tennis has the global reach of golf but it plays better with the young international chicks.


more money plays better with all chicks.

indescribably good shape and fit as a mother fvcker if I'm the GOAT tennis player.


Ask Nadal about his knees

Ask Tiger about his back.

Tennis is the most physically demanding sport on an athletes lower body. There's not another sport that comes close to 5 hours of start and stop, lateral movement like in tennis.

The moment he stops tennis his knees will be fine. Gimme knee problems over back problems anyday. And again, tennis players are up there with soccer players and even marathon runners when it comes to cardiovascular endurance. Golfers can have man-boobs.

Gimme tennis cause it guarantees I'm jacked, tan, and rich.
