Interesting points, but the OP smells of another troll just stirring the pot for me...

Billy I love your passion but you could easily argue there are 3 things keeping the NBL afloat:
1) Player Point System: the idea of it is not bad and gives the teams who can't afford all big names some shot at parity
2) Not paying for quality imports: if a team can't really afford them then they shouldn't pay more. It's more important to have a sustainable team then to have one exciting season with LeBron James. Cairns are a great example of spending within their means.
3) Not capitalizing on young talent coming back from college: the truth is that just because you went to college it doesn't make you an NBL level player. If a college player is a standout they will get offers. Whilst I personally agree that the young players in the league should get more opportunities than the washed up players, it's the washed up players that the fans know and come to see, so you need to keep the paying public happy.

For years people have been able to purchase 36ers at venuetix, and is the normal way to buy tickets. Is it possible that only being able to but tickets online will hurt the 36ers? If people go to venuetix will they be able to tell the people where they CAN get tickets? And the big question which needs answering is: how are people even going to which site to get tickets from!? Its not even on the 36ers site! IT atleast needs a link on the club site and perhaps even this one. I'd also be interested to see how many people buy their tickets at the door compared to pre-bought game night tickets.
