Message: [QUOTE="whalerfan, post: 4844953, member: 5429"] The point is (and not to pick on you) this consolidation is going to kill the sport for the average fan. When we lost our team for a few years I continued to purchase NHL Center Ice. When the NHL took the year off I found other things to do. If this breaks down to 50 or so teams either consciously or subconsciously fans of those institutions who feel slighted will find other things to do. I didn't watch one second of the college football playoff. Simply not interested. Look at Boston. Top 10 market. 4 pro sports teams. Nobody gives a rats behind about BCU outside of the Beanpot. NYC with it's 100 pro sports teams doesn't care about Rutgers or Syracuse (as much as they would like to believe this). They're only slightly interested about St. John's because of Pitino. [/QUOTE]
