Level of Flustration?
Okay, I didn't get to watch the game, but it seems clear that the level of frustration is relatively high (fire him, unacceptable, etc.). Frustration's great, but has it reached a level which will cause you to act?
Season ticket holders? Will you stop attending games? Non-season ticket holders? Will you eat the cost of the tickets in order to not attend? And no TV for you above people. Has it reached that point? Just curious. Thanks. Last edited by Donger; 11-26-2007 at 01:42 PM.. |

It would take a lot to make me quit watching them, but they are getting close. I have recorded three games this year for later viewing, no way could I do that prior to Herm. I listened to the game on Sirius yesterday, while driving back to Chicagoland. I drove right through KC about 11:30, without even the slightest consideration for attending the game. Herm destroyed the offense in his first season, the home field advantage in his second. I can't wait to see what he does next year. Last edited by HemiEd; 11-26-2007 at 12:51 PM.. |

I don't see how any of them get a share. If that was the case, wouldn't the NFL want everyone to have access to the Ticket? I think they all split up the booty of the exclusive contract DirecTV signs once every 7-8 years or so. I think individual subscriptions stay with DirecTV. If enough people stop ordering it, then it would probably drop the price, but the whole league has enough support that our team wouldn't slow that down. It'd just relegate us to Buffalo, or New Orleans status. Or insert your own small market team in there. |

My interest level is at an all-time low. I wouldn't say I'm frustrated just indifferent. I still watch the games on TV to see how the young guys do but I don't get excited when they win or depressed when they lose.
I just don't seem to care anymore. |

I've never been a season ticket holder and I don't really buy merchandise so no change there. I do try to jouney to games about once a year and I'm definitely less inclined to do that (although not absolutely against it). I still watch the games on tv when I can, although I am not as commited to it (I've seen all but 1 game this year).

While I'm not aseason ticket holder, if I was, I would not stop attending games. There's something about packing up the night before, leaving out early the next morning to caravan, tailgating with friends and meeting new people, and just watching football in person. We may be losing, but, as someone who's still trying to learn, I love going and watching.
