<!--quoteo--><div class='quotetop'>QUOTE <!--quotec-->Game-day profits
The Cubs make, on average, more than $2 million for each of their 81 regular-season home games. Here’s a breakdown of the estimated income per game:
Tickets $1.8 million
Broadcast rights $275,000
Luxury boxes $120,000
Concessions $185,000
Merchandise $50,000<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->

What are the average broadcast rights for other teams? I have no idea what to compare it to, but with a broad fanbase, it seems like the Cubs could do better.
