It's time for a new plan.



You really believe they don't operate under this principle? Really?

But where is the motivation to change their plan? The old one has worked so well for lo these what 89+ years? There is still a waiting list to be gouged to go buy season tix to that crap stadium/profit center. Including 2 preseason games at full price.

When was the last locally blacked out (non strike)game? 1981-82?


Yes. I agree with everything you said. I want more from the team that I root for in the 3rd largest market in the US. I want them to care about winning the same way Robert Kraft cares about winning. I have higher expectations for the Chicago Bears. Doing the bare minimum is a plan that I do not like.

They like it just fine. "Third biggest market" or "third smallest market" has no bearing in this discussion, as far as ownership is concerned. Until/unless more championships find a way to fill the stadium MORE, or give them a bigger percentage of the TV contract, its just not happening.
