The economic power of sports can't be ignored, if you're not convinced by American Football's Superbowl extravaganza's 30s tv advert slot costs then just glance at the viewing figures relating to the Olympics, the prices for tv rights must be astronomical

So is it all that odd that anyone would want to propose sports in microgravity considering the television rights sale bonanza that could be had? Maybe this ex-National Football League player should contact Robert Bigelow?
