And thats basically the crux of the matter.
Winnipeg's ability to make this work financially was pretty razor thin at the best of times when they first started.
Everyone, and I mean everyone, myself included, mentioned this at the time.
It sounded like they could do it when they got the Jets back but at that time absolutely everything was going their way. The dollar was strong, the market was there, the fans were rabid to get their team back.
That was when everything was perfect and even then the margins were slim.
Now everything isnt perfect and that margin is looking mighty fine.
