The problem at least for team sports vis a vis parity is most owners don't give a poo poo about winning as long as they're still putting asses in seats. The Cleveland Browns have been putting out an absolute joke of a team ever since they came back but why should they give a poo poo about spending the time and money on a good one if the fans keep showing up? They can put bags over their heads and boo everything but they're still buying tickets. Hell, hasn't been much different for the Lions. Things only came to a head when they were finally in danger of being blacked out because those fans at least finally found their breaking point and stopped going to watch them.

Feels Villeneuve posted:isn't Financial Fair Play more about making sure owners don't spend wildly and make clubs insolvent, than about parity Ultimately, yeah, but I don't think you'll ever see any league or club admit that.

The NBA season was a foregone conclusion even before KD went to Golden State though.

Kirios posted:The 2017 NBA Playoffs were tremendously boring to watch from start to finish. The finals drew massive ratings. I'm pretty sure they were down across the board the rest of the way compared to previous years. EDIT: I'm wrong and dumb! Apparently viewership was up on the whole.
