Easy...hockey. The thought of making a run at the Cup would be unmatched.

Think this exact same thread was created a few weeks ago by Journeyman or something. Too lazy to dig it up, though.
 

And thats why they play the game.

Baseball is by far the easiest. Very little serious practice, you get a few days in each city so you aren't just running around on planes, and hey $300k+ contract is league minimum and all long terms deals are guaranteed. Hard to beat for both the money, the ease, the relative lack of debilitating injuries, and the fact that you can get a million plus to end up backing someone up.

Golf.

You play when you want, and are always traveling through relatively warm areas of the country all winter.

Football, nothing like throwing a 25 yd bullet pass on the dead run for a touchdown, it is a great feeling. I have played many sports most at a lofty level, nothing like converting a 3 rd and 15 for a 1st down.

EXACTLY!!!! Would love to be an MLB pitcher, especially since I am a lefty. Pitch every five days for years and could move on to the bullpen as I get older as a "specialist" and easily have a 20 year career, if not longer

Tennis. Spend a week in Rome, Paris, London, Madrid. Like the travel part of this sport. Visit the world and get paid for it (if you that good)

Utility infielder like a Miguel Cairo & Jose Vizcaino, in MLB

1) Millionaire
2) Play an avg of one game of week
3) Non high expectations
4) Long career..always able to find a team looking for a guy like yourself
5) Famous...yet can go get a beer after the game & not be recognized by most people.

I've always wanted to be a bullpen catcher. I bet those guys have a blast out in the pen each day.
