You might be willing to wait three years or more Dan.  I might if I can 
see the plan and feel its working (to this point I am not convinced).  
However, the majority of the fans will not be willing.  This means lost 
ticket revenues.  On EEI, they said attendance is down this year.  I 
would imagine we will see a serious season ticket drop next year if 
things dont appear to be headed upward pretty fast.  I just dont think a 
team like the Celts can take 3 years or more to implement a program.  
Given the owners not quite so deep pockets and the fact that they dont 
own the arena really puts them in a bind.  If 3 years from now we are 
saying next year is the year I dont think Danny will be around...
