 PROFILE
The National Football League (NFL) hopes you're ready for some football. The NFL is the nation's most popular sports league. It has 31 franchised teams (with a 32nd team in Houston on the way) organized into the American and National Football Conferences. The teams are run as separate businesses but share much of the revenue from broadcast rights and gate receipts. The NFL acts as a trade association for the teams' owners to promote the game, license team names and logos, collect dues, and develop new programs. It also operates the NFL Europe league. A $2.2 billion-a-year television contract with four networks should foster the league's financial health through 2006.
