I know we're getting along now, but you were a massive fan of the Nicholson hire, and pretty upset that I was'nt. Just saying. Nicholson is first in charge of all these safe hires. Which is essentially what he is. The org continuing to go with gray hairs (and I am so thats not ageism)
This org doesn't take too many risks, and when it does its disasters like Chiarelli, Eakins.
The same as any arena stuff is a misgiving though. It wasn't always like this, and sports fans weren't always being gouged. Going to pro sports used to be cheap and affordable. Now its high priced night at the opera. I respond by fiscally having nothing to do with the current pro sports premium ticket or largesse.
I spent the 70's 80's seeing pretty good Oilers hockey for mere dollars a ticket. The 90's almost any game you could throw a 20 at a scalper and get a good seat. The interesting thing is I was still doing that in 96, 97, and that was a better team, that I would prefer watching, to the current one. (sorry Draisaitl)
As far as spending on pro sports I'm retired, and the Eskimos just assured I won't be spending money there either.
I'll still watch on TV, for free.
