Many people still go because they paid alot of money for season tickets

But come next year, look out.

Current ticketholders who feel “obligated” to use their seats could at least not purchase concessions or gear.

And don’t watch other games on TV nor “SportsCenter” “nfl Live” etc, shows like that.

There are plenty of ways of skinning these brats

I was thinking the same thing. I wonder if they will offer half price deals.

BINGO! Right now, a lot of season ticket holders are selling their seats online at a huge loss and the people that buy them are obviously going.

Next year, the season tickets won't be bought, and the people that are buying the heavily discounted tickets this year aren't going to pay full price next year. Ticket prices will plunge, remaining season ticket holders will be pissed they paid so much for what is now selling for dirt, and the whole cycle will repeat itself the following year.

Owners whose only "assets" are a TV contract, season ticket holders, and some ad revenue, will see the value of all three drop substantially, while their liabilities (prima-donna contracts) remain constant. NFL team value plunges.

Too bad season ticket holders can’t get their money back. The NFL doesn’t care. They’ve already pocketed the $$$$$$.

People don't typically buy season tickets anymore, they're too expensive, their jobs pay for them.

The next shoe to drop will be all those local commercials and endorsements for players that will dry up when the contract expires. They don't like controversy.

Watched the Talladega Alabama 500 yesterday. NASCAR race. I don’t know the full capacity of that track, but I didn’t see very many empty seats. No way.

Dale Earnhardt JR was the pole sitter. The Alabama Governor named Oct 15th ‘Dale Earnhardt Jr Day’ in the state. His Dad won the race on the only other Oct 15th the race was run in 2000. The car that his Dad drove that day was restored to it’s original condition & presented to Dale Jr before the start of the race. He said the car had been languishing at his Grandmother’s place for years. He sure was surprised.

When the National Anthem was played, the cameras showed everyone with their hands over their hearts & standing at attention—especially in the pits.

The ‘flyover’ was performed by an F-16 AND a restored P-51 MUSTANG. Beautiful !!!

Good race. Next one is in Kansas next Sunday. NBC.
