I get what's going on and I get what they're saying, but this growing disconnect between teams and their most loyal, blue collar fans is going to bite them in the arse at some point, I would think.


Bill Simmons has written about this -- it's getting to the point where Joe Fan just goes to one or two games a year. Why bother shelling out all the money and putting up with all the BS with traffic and parking, when you can stay at home and watch the game on a nice high def TV? And you can enjoy all the beer and food in your fridge...
The next time the economy goes in the crapper, it could be bad for pro sports team attendance. The bubble of corporate support that fills the stadiums and luxury boxes may pop.

For that price, you could buy a decent TV and watch all 16 games at home. Frick that shite...nice stadiums are cool, but the fans pay the price.
