I wish there was some way we could know why crews are assigned the way they are.

It's like the officials are employees of the CIA or something. Total secrecy.

We SPEND the money to keep the league alive. We GET what they give us.

Seems wrong to me.........

Sorry to disappoint you, but WE do not spend the money to keep the league alive. The networks and advertiser do. We'll watch regardless.

I wasn't talking about the jerseys and such that I buy.

I was talking about the televised games not being as important as they once were.

If I didn't have the live chat on this site, I would gladly go to the gym, wash my car, help my mother etc...

I am happy to watch (regular season) games on DVR and skip every single commercial along the way. It is often convenient for me to do it that way.

Something should give on their side. That's all I'm saying.
