"We're trying to be competitive and not just get 3 million fans through the gates..."
{shuts down Latin American Academy}
Tell me, John - how do you reconcile those two things? If you're trying to win, how does shutting down an international pipeline help? Oh I know why you did it - it's not free and ultimately the fans don't notice it until the players get up at this level. So it's money spent now for a return 8 years from now and that's not how you guys do things.
You can spend money on an Andrew Kittredge salary dump instead and then tell the fans "We're trying to win!" and hope to keep your ticket sales up.
It's just so damn obvious how little this team cares about winning BEYOND what it means at the gate. They want to win if it draws fans. If losing drew fans, they'd be fine with that as well.
This team has zero aspirations for actually being a competitive ballclub. They want to sell tickets and winning is a necessary component of that. That's all.
