Exactly!
I’ve been saying it could be 7 years before we are even relevant again, I don’t think we are close to bottoming out yet.
Many here question the ownership’s commitment to the bottom out rebuild, I’ll flip the table and say if the ticket buying public is committed then ownership will back it for sure. You’d expect a lower payroll with butts in the seats, why wouldn’t they like it?
