Quote:...hockey strikes me as better because they're paid less, and fewer people idolize them.
Bah, that's a shitty reason to like a sport. I assure you, one out of every three Canadians idolizes a hockey player in some shape or form. On our five dollar bill we have a hockey scene on a pond.
As for the pay, it's about the same with any other sport. Not that it matters anyways....the average player will get around three to four million a year. Players like Forseberg and Jagr get between 10-15 a year.
