.its some of the other sports like baseball or b-ball. And I assure you, their careers go much longer than 3 1/2 years. Baseball is complex. How do you treat people in the minors? If you count people who ever play in a major league game and only count their time in the majors the average career is quite short, but many of them spend years in the minors (of course at a much lower salary). Basketball careers are also quite short, even if they are longer then NFL careers. A player can play for a long time (at least for a professional sports career), but there are lot of fringe, end of the bench players who have very short careers.
