Morgan and the NFL say the Super Bowl is worth $250 million to the host city, a number that grows each year and has Atlanta eager to break into the regular Super Bowl rotation of mostly warm-weather cities.
But Atlanta won baseball's ultimate prize only once, and fans, perhaps tired of regular-season success followed by postseason disappointment, did not fill gleaming new Turner Field during the first round of the 1999 playoffs.
In a run more typical of the game's early years, the Braves won eight straight division titles and went to five of the nine World Series played in the decade (the 1994 Series was canceled because of a players strike).

 We're (not) in the money ajc.com
The reason that the Falcons and other franchises in the NFL playoffs this weekend will not reap financial windfalls, at least in the short term, is that the league's share-the-wealth philosophy is even more pronounced in the postseason than in the regular season.
The NFL's highly successful economic model, the envy of all other sports leagues, is built on revenue sharing among teams and a salary cap that limits player payrolls.
Teams don't have to pay their players during the playoffs, because the league covers the postseason player salary pool, which is over and above regular-season pay.
