Tell us what real benefits stations gain ...Richie,<br /><br />Tell us what real benefits stations gain from being the radio home of a certain team. Do the advertising dollars generated during pregame, game and postgame pay for what the rights cost? If it is a break even proposition, I can see why having the tag "Home of" and gaining access to more players/team admin types for shows/interviews would be worth it. However, is this market so messed up because of the Ticket that actually being the "Home of" isnt really worth the cash? For instance, I know as a "brainwashed" (couldnt resist) P1 that I will listen to Cowboys pregame on the Ticket and tune into the game on TV (who wants to go to JerryWorld anyway). Then I will tune in for Norm after the bloodbath. Just curious as to your take. <br /><br />No, that wasnt the question.

There's even less doubt in my mind he pressured The Fan into saying bye bye to the Rangers just months after they won their first pennant; made no damn sense any other way.
