WRT baseball and basketball vs. football, does all 3 sports have required offseason lifting programs? "Required" may not be the right word - "strongly encourage" may be the better phrase. If football players spend more time in the weight room than baseball or basketball, then it might offset some of those extra games. Also, practice for the CCG and/or bowl season might knock off a few more.

I am not saying you aren't wrong because you are probably right. I guess I am just trying to think of all the various factors to get as close to an apples-to-apples comparison as possible.
