I think the NFL is the biggest in terms of popularity and revenue, but what comes next? If picking from the following group: MLB, NBA, NHL. Your answer must be backed up by TV viewership, league revenue, or similar statistics. If I were to make a guess, it would be:
1. NFL
2. NBA
3. MLB
4. NHL
This question is in terms of North America, since I think we can all agree that soccer (football) is the world's most popular sport. Next in line internationally would be debatable, as tennis and cricket are both fairly popular.
 
1.NFL
2.MLB
3.NBA
4.NHL

Baseball is America's past time so thats why I put it over basketball. I would probably give UFC the five spot if thats considered a sport and if there was a 5 spot.
 
1 NFL 2 MLB 3 NBA 4 NHL

NBA has lost a ton of popularity recently... hockey is dead last by far, NFL is first by a huge margin
