The odds of being a football player are greatest although careers are shorter because of the roughness of the game. Team rosters are 50+ players, and the draft has 7 rounds. Baseball teams have 25 player rosters. Basketball only has about a dozen players per team, and two rounds in the draft although a lot of people play in Europe.
