In you're last column you ripped the NBA's lack of caring about the fans, but can't you extend these arguments to any sport?

You could be a Royals season ticket holder and miserable, but at least you're outside. In fact, that should be their 2010 marketing slogan: "The 2010 Royals: At Least You're Outside."
