MLB attendance dying, pro sports $ will fall all across board

I've ALWAYS been here. May not post, but I'm here. I don't get on here to whine and bawl about coaches like you do, pissbaby. And to be honest not even sure why I respond to half of it. This free board is good to come to when I want to see people that make me feel smarter. AAAAAND I've been employed the whole time.

added to ignore list...
Typical response from a low IQ poster. You're one of the all time dumbest posters on here. Time for you to get a life crybaby.
BTW get a job
 
You think one point per team of data explains a trend—and that point covering a half of a season? Kings, Bucks, Pistons all have a 20%+ drop in attendance over a 10 year sample.

No they dont

Kings 2018 - 17,555

Kings 2008 - 14,150

Bucks 2018 - 16,714

Bucks 2008 - 15,595

Pistons 2018 - 17,413

Pistons 2008 - 22,076


The Pistons are the only one of those who have experienced any attendance drop.... and that is 100% due to the product on the court. They went from Title contenders in the 2000s to cellar dwellers

Also, this season’s average for the Pistons is about 1,500 more per game than 2017’s 15,979 average.....

Good job. Good effort

Oh Keaton. Oh Keaton. Yes we understand that your revered NBA and all the overpaid stars will be the savior for professional, college, and high school sports attendance. Soon, as MLB and NFL attendance drops further along with the failure of the new no tackling, no hitting, no football college game to improve turnout and TV viewership...ESPN will announce a new format with All-NBA, All Day, All Year. Your dream will happen. Just think, 24/7 palming of the ball, never ending traveling, dunkathon, NBA coverage will be here. Wow. Can't wait.
 
The NBA appeal has dwindled pretty bad. It’s demographic appeal is largely the hood now. That won’t keep it going. NBA has bigger troubles coming just like all the pro sports. All pro sports have become boring compared to decades ago. Big trouble coming to pro sports in USA.

Keatoncornerloser just likes to argue. He’s the only non hood person hyping the NBA nowadays. NBA sucks. It’s been hurting for years. Future is suspect.
 
Keatoncornerboy hasn’t grown up yet. That’s why he loves the NBA. NBA has become a joke since MJ retired. It’s getting worse. All pro sports are getting worse.

Hmmm...Is 16W Marketing right or is Googler Keaton right?
 
Most NBA teams are playing in front of half empty arenas most nights. The attendance announced is not the actual attendance. The ratings are not good either. People are not watching the NBA the last 20 years. It’s going to get worse. NFL is falling now. MLB has been pretty down for a while.

NBA has a suspect future unless changes are made to improve the sport.
 
Most NBA teams wouldn’t even sale for a billion. Michael Jordan net worth overall is a billion thanks to multiple businesses that he’s invested in but the NBA team is so little he only gets $400-500 million of net worth off that. The lowly failing Hornets would only sale for $500 million if he’s lucky. The Hornets last year we’re actually losing money. Several NBA teams are losing profit. The NBA sucks.

These leagues have nobody but themselves to blame. MLB attendance has fallen simply because fans became fed up with guaranteed high price contracts that left the vast majority of teams unable to keep their star players. Often times, the star is in his prime and left or was traded away. The NFL attendance has fallen because of the black race baiting by disrespecting our law enforcement and kneeling during our anthem. Beyoncé came out for halftime a few years ago dressed as a black panther displaying the black power fist salute.

The NFL players today are also not as marketable and they come off as bad attitude thug, punks and people are getting tired of the act. The act has grown old. Their turning people off. The NBA, NFL, MLB are all overpaid and the system is broken. The USA is getting bored with it. Pro sports getting sucky. Not worth spending the money to see these guys play. Boring. I no longer even watch pro sports on TV.

All but about the bottom 1/4 play in front of crowds of 95% capacity every night or MORE

Best halftime performance in decades
 
The NBA arenas turn the lights off in the upper deck so you can’t see the ugly open seats. They dim the lighting to cover up the bad attendance. Lots of open seats throughout many NBA arenas most nights. Charlotte, Orlando among many should consider relocating to Seattle. I think when Jordan gives up and sells lowly Charlotte team the next owner will move to Seattle. Many NBA teams are dead dogs in their own area.

Actutally baseball is up 5% from last year. and where do I start:

1. You provide not stats, merely all opinions.
2. They're not their
3. Teams are run by Business degree people responsible for handling MILLIONS. If they didn't have the money, the players wouldn't get it.
4. Baseball tickets are extremely affordable, even on a pizza delivery salary...cough cough
5. Know not no.
 
MLB is affordable cause nobody wants to go and it’s empty. Actually a lot of the pro games with NFL, MLB and NBA can be cheap tickets for the loser teams in cities that don’t care. The problem is that the games are boring, the players are overpaid, the players don’t stay with their teams, the players attitudes are terrible, the players don’t respect their fans, the players don’t care about winning anymore, the players don’t stay in college long enough, the players are trouble making punks and thugs, kneeling anthem protesters, immmature players, stupid players, free agency, overpaid bad coaching....so many reasons not to like pro sports anymore.

Plus college sports are just way more exciting and better.

Don't know where you get your facts Gaepride304 but the price bid for the Charlotte Panthers is now over 2.3 Billion..as for the troublemaker, thuggish and immature players you must be looking into a mirror...

Kind of like the old saying, “You can take the girl/boy out of the trailer park, but you can’t take the trailer park out of the girl/boy”.
 
Shirley Knot crazy, stupid we’re talking about NBA team net worth not NFL. Sorry your stupid and didn’t understand conversation. NBA teams are way behind NFL but all pro sports are going to suffer and decline. People are just not impressed or interested in the modern pro model.

All 30 franchises exceed 1 billion in actual value this year for the first time ever

Attendance averages are up

Revenue is up

Viewership is up

I would say the trailer park doesn’t follow college sports. They either follow pro or no sports at all. The ghetto also swings more to pro sports. Everybody that’s suburban or went to college leans more to college sports. Also when you get outside of NY, NJ, New England, Philadelphia, DC greater far northeastern region people tend to favor college sports and high school a little more. That pretty much sums of the USA.
 
You probably got that info from some liberal bull crap writer who doesn’t know the reality that the NBA has really struggled the last 20 years. It’s going to get worse.

Again half or more of NBA plays in front of empty arenas. It’s pathetic. They have to turn the lights off upper deck so it won’t look so embarrassing. Many of the NBA teams are half empty in lower level. NBA really fell off. The worth of the franchises is small in today’s expensive over priced world. Many NBA franchises aren’t worth shit. Half of NBA owners losing money. MJ losing money off Charlotte team.
 
WVU football is no trailer park. They can’t afford it. Talk to someone from a trailer park in WV or any state and they usually don’t follow sports. They especially get confused when you mention college sports.
 
Folks from the bottom like the ghetto or trailer park hate college sports. Only thing poor people know is to look up to the pro players. Otherwise poor people don’t like sports much. They don’t care about sports. Too busy trying to survive or get drugs, alcohol.
 
Trailer park hates the Mountaineers. Their anti college anything. It’s mostly no sports and pro sports if they actually follow sports.
 
Keaton listen. Just give a reply. Is Konate going to stay? Have you heard anything legit up to date?

Also there isn’t a person in the world that would pay a billion for half of those NBA franchises. There actually not worth that. That’s bad. Weak.

Sorry sweet cheeks, previous posts were about NFL,NBA and MLB, I just inserted the part about your obvious lack of anything bright...
 
Jordan will eventually sell that dope small franchise and nobody will spend more than $700 million on that cheap franchise. Next owner will probably move them to a better NBA city like Seattle. Orlando is also a joke NBA city.
