It's time, Bulls fans, for the best show of fan disappointment in professional sports. Not boos, not not going to games, but the classic brown bag.

Aren't those Bulls tickets almost all sold already though? Tickets sold matters more than asses in seats to Jerry.

Empty stadiums hurt pretty badly. Concessions, merch, parking....that's a pretty big hit. It's about time this started happening.

I was offered Harris Club seats and parking for several January-April games, and said no thank you to them all. I'm on board with staying away until they get their shit together. I dislike almost the entire roster, the coach, the front office and the owner. I'm not sure how I would be able to explain being a fan of this team.

I’m still watching, but I don’t go to many games. I prefer hockey when I am willing to trek down to the UC.

I like some of the pieces on the roster.

It wasn't until the late '80's that full stadiums were the norm. In 1986 I sat in Chicago Stadium with 7,000 other people watching Michael Jordan. The only reason it happened in baseball is because of the "nostalgic' new stadiums.

The norm going forward is winning. Tricks and smoke and mirrors only go so far.

The way it should be.

Someone should tell Uncle Jerry.

No they weren’t. Roughly 14,900 sold and 10,000 in attendance. Ticket sales cover overhead and don’t do much for profit. All the money spent on everything else by people attending adds to profit.

The NBA is horribly over valued mainly because of Ballmers blunder. This is peak time to sell for Jerry. The TV money is what makes money. The TV money is not going to see the crazy increases because well viewership is down and streaming rules. If you want Jerry to stay as rich as he can you pray he sells now.

Dude knows. He was against the tank for sure. Problem is he is an asshat with letting his FO have jobs too long. Krause whom was a much better GM than Paxson should have been yanked earlier. Paxson should have been gone 4 years ago easily. Kenny should have been shut up long before Jerry did.

In all honesty I don’t think owners make too much of a difference really... except the good ones hire good FO’s. That’s why Jerry is bottom of the barrel.

If owners mattered much players would be flocking to play with MJ. They don’t. When Sterling was forced to sell the Clippers they were a 57 win team. Tillman is a fool, Cuban has never signed anyone and in fact missed a signing because he was on shark tank. Maybe Dolan has actively scared a player off but that’s only because he meddles. Yes the owner matters for sure and Jerry has to go because he doesn’t run a good front office but most the co Plaines about his failures are misguided.
