If the Super Bowl had you wishing you were a millionaire pro athlete . . . well, tough luck.  But "Forbes" magazine posted a list of the top ten NORMAL sports-related jobs you can get.  Here they are from highest-paying to lowest.

 

 

#1.)  Physical Therapist.  A lot of teams have them on the payroll, but you can also do well if you open up a private practice.  The median salary is $76,000.

 

 

#2.)  Statistician.  Like Jonah Hill's character in "Moneyball".  The median salary is $73,000 a year, and the job market is on the rise.

 

 

#3.)  Sports Psychologist.  They help athletes prepare MENTALLY, so they can perform as well as possible on the field.  The median salary is $69,000. 

 

 

#4.)  Sports Agent.  They negotiate contracts and endorsement deals.  (--Yes, like Tom Cruise in "Jerry Maguire").  Most of them make around $65,000 a year. 

 

 

#5.)  Public Relations Manager.  They're the ones who deal with the media when an athlete gets arrested or does anything else that makes them look bad.  The median salary is $58,000.

 

 

#6.)  Advertising Executive.  They sell and place ads for sporting events, which might mean ads at the stadium, or commercials that play during it.  The median salary is $45,000 a year.

 

 

#7.)  Event Coordinator.  They take care of seating, security, and a lot of other behind-the-scenes stuff.  The median salary for that one is also $45,000.

 

 

#8.)  Broadcaster.  The BIG ones make a lot.  But when you factor in the ones for local events, the median salary is only $36,000.

 

 

#9.)  Photojournalist.  Meaning the guys who sit on the sidelines or in the end zone and take pictures.  The median salary is only $29,000 a year, but the main perk is free tickets to every game.

 

 

#10.)  Head Coach.  Again, the ones for professional teams can make millions.  But most of them coach at high schools and middle schools, and also have part-time jobs.  The median salary is around $28,000 a year.
