There are a lot of empty seats at the start of baseball season because the games don’t mean anything. I think baseball season should be shortened to 100 games, basketball season to 50 games and hockey season should be cut by a third. Fewer games means they matter more and thus more people in the stands. Oh, and I am against football going to 18 games. Stay at 16 and cut preseason to 3. Also, put the Pro-Bowl back (after the Super Bowl).
While we are on the subject of football; Players should get 40%, owners get 40%, and 20% goes for expenses (utilities, non-player salaries, maintenance, etc…). If the team doesn’t use all 20% it goes into a fund and saved so when they need a new stadium the taxpayers don’t have to pay for it. Oh, and rookies get no more than one million a year (total) for the first 3 years.

pamlicorat… Disagree with all except Basketball and the probowl…Football should br 20 games with one game each night of the week.

As Skip Caray used to say, “there are 20,000 fans disguised as empty seats.”

What a crock. Talk about lazy - this comic is a recycle by the same cartoonist from 10 or 12 years ago, maybe even longer.

I agree with pamlicorat. The 82-game season, plus 16 to 28 more for the Cup teams, is just too long.
