nfl by a lot, most college teams don't make a profit
Lower league teams make most of their money from selling tickets, some from their sponsor and very little from merchandising sales. Mid-level league teams make a balance between ticket sales and sponsor money, and some (but still a small percentage) from merchandising sales. Top teams make most of their money from merchandising sales, some from sponsors and a very small percentage from ticket sales.

Make sure your college coach knows how to reach you in case a league scout contacts your school about you. There is no "list" at the pro level to place yourself on to express your desire to play ball. Some pay-to-play leagues have a list at their offices that a player can place themselves on. Teams who are short of players can look at the list and give you a call. Most semi-pro or amateur teams (and some pro teams) have open try-outs to give players who have slipped through the cracks a chance to show their stuff. Contact your local teams to find out times and possible costs (some teams charge a small fee) for their try-outs. Leagues like the Womens Premier Soccer League and the (mens) National Premier Soccer League have teams in almost every state in the U.S.
Not sure.. From what I studied in the NFL they do everything for money. Florda and California, 2 highly visited states, have 3 NFL teams. Why do you think the Patriots won the Super Bowl after 9/11? Money. Why do you think one of the Steelers (forgot his name) won Super Bowl XL in his homwtown? Money.
The New York Knicks have the biggest payroll in the NBA. The big market teams always have the most money. Thus, teams in big cities like the Knicks, Lakers, and Celtics will always have money to get good players.
The idea behind MLB revenue sharing is to take money away from teams that make a lot of money and give it to teams that don't make a lot of money. This is done in an attempt to lessen the difference in the amount of money the richest teams make, and subsequently can spend, in comparison to the poorest teams. Through the end of the current Collective Bargaining Agreement (2011 season), all 30 teams pay 31 percent of their local revenues into a pot each season. This pot is then evenly distributed among the 30 teams. A team in New York or Chicago will pay more into this pot than a team in Tampa Bay or Kansas City. MLB distributes a portion of their Central Fund, which is comprised from sources like the television contract with the various networks, among the 30 teams with the teams that have the lowest revenues getting the most money. There is also a 'luxary tax' where a team must pay into a pot a percentage on the portion of their payroll that exceeds a pre-set limit. The Yankees usually have to put money into this pot due to exceeding the pre-set limit on payrolls ... in the 2008 season, the Yankees contributed $21.6 million into this pot. This money is distributed to teams with lower payrolls.
