Message: [QUOTE="Puppy Love, post: 3047837, member: 8101"] Sixteen teams in one location seems like such a poorly thought out idea when considered in the context of ‘growing the game’. It might make sense to move the regionals around more frequently. When people go to their first games, they are more likely to return if what they are seeing is a quality product. The regionals are the best chance of getting quality games in front of people people who aren’t hard-core fans. If all of the best matchups are in a single permanent location, there is less possibility to expose the game to broader regional audiences. Only fans who are highly vested in games are going to travel to see their team play. It would seem that the result would impact overall ticket sales and hurt the game in the long run. Moving the regionals might have a positive impact. If you put them not so far away that established fans will still travel but far enough that there would be exposure to new audiences it might be a positive thing. [/QUOTE]
