Thanks to Forbes for all the stats I used in putting this together.

Obviously, the NFL's success as a whole helped pull up the franchise value of certain teams that weren't necessarily making a lot, while some of the huge name soccer teams in somewhat struggling leagues had their franchise value pulled down a bit.

That error was taken care of well over an hour ago, ignore him.

NFL completely owns that list.

But Man United owns them all:

Manchester United value: $1,186 billion, revenue: $289 million. And yet they thought Wayne Rooney was too expensive...

Yeah...The Panthers at 14.

The only thing that pisses me off is that the Sucks are ahead of them.

It's a sad world when the Chargers are worth more the the Lakers. I know it's because of football's cap. But it's still pretty ironic

finally the NHL is doing well. I hope players will begin to understand that this league is not worth anything

Wow, I wouldn't think the Broncos would be so high on that list
