  Being the 6th man on a pro Basketball team is a generally a better move than being a starting Football player. Bonus is that you will probably have a longer lifespan.

    Being the 15th man on an NBA team can be better than being a starter on an NFL team. The median NFL player only makes about as much as a 1st-round non-lottery pick NBA rookie. Moreover, for the most part, NBA contracts are fully guaranteed, unlike NFL contracts, that have all manner of byzantine bonus and base salary constructs. http://www.basketball-reference.com/contracts/players.html http://www.basketball-reference.com/contracts/players.html http://blog.futureadvisor.com/nfl-players-must-go-long-on-retirement/ http://blog.futureadvisor.com/nfl-players-must-go-long-on-re...
