On the other hand, I kind of view it like if you're willfully leaving money on the table that's your call but don't come to ask taxpayers for a bailout on your business then (arena). Selling 200k jerseys at avg price of $200 is $40MM. That helps with an arena doesn't it? I haven't bought a jersey in like 8 years and won't until they produce one that doesn't make my eyes bleed. Since the jersey I bought is a retro, there's no real need to get another.

Also as an aside, maybe the fact that the owners are generally over 70 is part of the problem in terms of recognizing any sort of style.

You can’t be serious in thinking they’d sell 200,000 new jerseys??? I think that’s about 10x too aggressive...
