2:20 do you think that a government would spend money on entertainment without making much more from it? Entertainment business is one of the most gainful businesses out there, and figures like MJ or Muhammad Ali or... Are considered a huge influencing power of a country. Plus, entertainment business and big sport events contribute massively in the economic flow, so the money spent in sports is pretty much being spent in economy.

[@greatmnn3868]

Then he will say.. Chess is not big... No one Sponsers chess tournament

[@abhishekmalhotra1831]

I am not sure what the situation is in other countries but in the U.S. there is fairly poor management at times as well as overspending funded with tax-payer money. There are unnecessary expenditures in sporting like ridiculously high pay out to rich team owners (while players make much less) and lavish stadiums as extensions or replacements for already good stadiums (which the team owners have come to expect will be paid for by cities even though the total expenditures are only rivaled by the potential benefits associated with large construction projects, while still coming with the risk of teams leaving if cities stop offering even more benefits on top of this such as entirely new stadiums for no reason). Aside from that, while there is merit in saying it provides economic activity and is a good way of promoting cash-flow (though again some team-owners will try to draw as much of that to themselves such as by negotiating extremely favorable contracts including cuts of commissions), it has actually been shown to be a detriment to the immediate local area to have a stadium as there will be much higher levels of congestive traffic around game days that keep away regulars for local businesses and generally just resulting in more pollution. The idea is that sports are a great investment but they are draining cities in America and falsely claim to provide long-term benefits to the local economy even as they are extremely wasteful (and fail to be dependable for the cities that don’t cave in). It would actually be better for cities to invest elsewhere while allowing team-owners to finance the sport aside from the cases where that is actually just not possible.

Tbh American Sports leagues like MLB, NHL and NBA have much higher investments meanwhile Soccer (Football for civilized people) doesn't need much investment that's why it's the most popular sport worldwide. The investment into football is pretty flexible and is done according to the league's revenue. Going by Hikaru's logic it'll be the American Sports leagues which have huge investments that could be used elsewhere!
