Bottom line, the games make more money from TV revenue than from ticket revenue.

the thing in Orlando has actually grown a lot since it started 3 (maybe 4) years ago. it's not a huge arena, but it does handle a nice crowd. I think if they keep at it, they will eventually fill it up.

Looks like there is white on the toe???

Guess Mr. Adams has noticed also:

"2. Quite a few officials might want to put a pair of solid black officiating shoes on their Christmas lists, as stipulated on page 31 of the 2008-2009 CCA Officiating Manual."

:D
I chuckled when I saw video of the Lions logo being hosed off the turf after their last game there.

Maybe they can have it back when/if they win a game. ;)

More than probably go to Lions games.
