  1. Who is the most marketable sport star today?

    Tiger woods? not now

    David Beckham? possibly

    Michael Schumacher? to old
     
  2. Tim Tebow?
     
  3. TraDaToR

    TraDaToR

    Lionel Messi.
     
  4. 151

    151

    I doubt a traditional sports star would make the top 5.

    The real answer is probably a kid like Travis Pastrana. He already has two TV shows and countless DVDs. Sponsored by MTV, RedBull, Shoe companies, Clothing lines, etc.

    He likely will not make as much as a-rod until the networks primetime one of his events and figure out the market. but the trend for these guys is up no doubt.
     
  5. TraDaToR

    TraDaToR

    Or Shaun White in this case.
     
  6. Richard Simmons?
     
  7. With MMA gaining popularity by the day, I would say GSP is gaining marketability very fast. He is definitely the most popular sports star in Canada.
     
  8. Frank Bruno maybe??

    He has always been popular with the public.
     
  9. I would've said Lebron James if he went to a contending team where he was still the focal point, ie. the Bulls. Next best would be Tom Brady.
