[QUOTE="Allen, post: 437107, member: 389"] Yeah, I read a couple articles on why the NFL thinks doing this is in their favor. Bottom line, the vast majority of those who attend in person are not their cash cow. The local crowd with season or individual tickets are more resilient to the time changes, they also buy a heck of a lot more of the tickets, etc. One article even quoted an NFL rep as saying a fan should always get a refundable airplane ticket for just such situations. I wonder if their financial logic holds true when fully including the travelers, don't they tend to be fanatics...with large wallets? I have to imagine they've got a few economists on staff to verify this business philosophy, but it just seems like there should be a pitfall or two in there, somewhere. [/QUOTE]
