I just want it to be known that I only wrote the first paragraph.  I don't
think the person who wrote the rest of it is a fairweather fan...just
realistic.  I can say, "ouch mama, that hurts my pocketbook to buy these
tickets for an entertainment event that is not entertaining.  Plays close.
Broadway shows last one night. And yet, losing sports teams expect to draw
loyal audiences." I can say that.
