Well, the philosophy of amateur athletics is they do it for the love of the game, not for treasure. Of course this is ridiculous in the sports that serve as de facto farm systems for the pros, but it's still nice to think about it for the rest.

Well Pro Sports players can earn the miles on paid tickets (but most flights are charthered) but are not eligible for most hotel credit as it is central billed. So while the Red Sox may be in Hyatt hotels 75 or more nights a year none would be Diamond.
Note: I do not know what hotel the Sox pick, I just used them as an example.
