I don't know the NFl has to give baseball a run for their money. Think about this. Pitt just won the super bowl. 20 of the pitt players had previous super bowl experiance yet Pitt was in the super bowl just 4 years ago. So on the 53 man roster at least 33 of them weren't there just 4 years ago. So at least 63% of the roster is differant than just 4 years ago.

yea but isn't the average career of an NFL player like 3 years? So alot of guys retire from the same team they started with because the career was so short. % wise my guess would be baseball.

Yeah baseball for sure. A good percentage of guys have already been traded by the time they reach the big leagues. Then you have stars leaving small market teams for the big contract once they hit free agency, and guys at the end of their careers going to whatever team still thinks they have something left.

At least in football stars usually stay with the same team because its impossible to trade big stars.
