The football that we see in the National Football League (NFL) is the same as the Canadian Football League (CFL), but with different teams and rules. In the NFL, a team has four chances to get a first down (getting the ball ten yards), but in the CFL they only get three chances. Not only is the amount of downs different, but so are the amount of players on the field. In the NFL, there are eleven players on the field, opposed to the CFL, where there are twelve!

The have smaller audiences, less media coverage, and less fanfare. Sponsors place lower values on them, and if given a straight shootout between the Super Bowl, and another final of a major American sport, advertisers would undoubtedly pick the former.

Even many soccer games from England’s Premier League achieve much larger audiences than the Super Bowl, and those games are regular league games, not finals.…

Both articles “If You’re a Market Bull Then Root for These Teams in the Super Bowl” published by Fortune and “Does the World Cup predict stock markets?” published by The Telegraph, discus the correlation between the winners of major sport championships and the following returns in the stock market. The article in Fortune deliberates how the stock markets will perform based on the “Super Bowl predictor”—a theory popularized by the stock analyst Robert H. Stovall, after sportswriter Leonard Koppett first discovered that the subdivisions in which the Super Bowl winners belonged to, correlated with the rise or fall of the “Dow Jones Industrial Average” the concurrent year (Fortune). Similarly, the article by The Telegraph assesses the phenomenon…

A business owner must know that every resources has an opportunity cost in order to calculate the firm’s economic costs properly. An implicit cost is an opportunity cost that doesn’t need to pay by the owner because a firm owner already own the resources for his firm. However, these resources has their own price.
