ответ:

sport has long been a business. indeed, professional sport is a very exciting spectacle. therefore, a lot of spectators often come to watch football, hockey, basketball, rugby and tennis, box and many other kinds of sport paying a lot of money for tickets. sports are regularly broadcast on my tv channels, attracting a huge audience of fans and therefore causing high advertising prices during these broadcasts. in other words, the owners of many sports teams, managers and financial agent of many sports talents around the world have quite high profits. that allows them to conclude huge and long-term contracts with the most talented athletes, stimulating the most talented young people to implement themselves in sports.

i agree that professional sport is definitely a big business. it was for this reason that it was organized, huge sums are spinning in this area, just look at what amounts are indicated in the contracts of professional sports stars. but i think that not all sports are big business. professional sports managers   invest in attractive projects that can generate income. therefore, for example, the nba or the nhl is a sports business with a long tradition. but the championship of a city among students cannot be called a business, of course. not the scope to make a profit.

thus, the professional sport in its structure has long been one of the most highly profitable sectors of show business.
