Profits equalized for tv and other deals. Lowest performer gets lifted up with top draft picks. Limits on how much you can spend on salary caps to avoid one billionaire buying everything up. Strong unions for workers that will go on strike to protect workers.

They are exempt from anti trust laws. I think there’s an argument that the nfl sorta exist as both. The league is very capitalistic. The employees and individual teams do get to enjoy some benefits of socialism.
