SHAKA! SHAKA! SHAKA! - LET'S BE POSITIVE. WE'RE STILL ALIVE!

I nearly failed Econ at Wake, but I'm pretty sure there's a serious supply/demand flaw in your calculations there.

Maybe Wake basketball tickets and sodas at the games are the mythical Giffen Goods that have puzzled economists for years.

 

[deaconson]

If Wake has certain limitations (self imposed - wake way and all that) then Wake just may need to pay a higher premium to bring in the best available hires. Find a way to make it work if you want to remain relevant and push for the next level.

Just start selling beer. Duh

Thats the obvious answer

DUDES, if we just raise ticket prices to ONE MILLION DOLLARS PER TICKET, then we can pay for shaka's salary even if only four people came to a game ALL SEASON (we would evade taxes). the novelty would then attract other rich people so they could have a sanctuary to watch bball without all the poors and ruffians. a classic VEBLEN good YOU NOOB.

 

[Deacfreak07]

Maybe DWade and CP3 should just play 1-on-1 for Smart.

I always liked the idea of giving tickets to homeless people which is pretty much the opposite of your idea and we know how much Ron values outside the box thinking. If we fill the Joel with hobos then the rich will come to watch them fight to the death. Solve the city's homeless problem and have a good bball team. Win-Win.

sell weed, but only until tip-off, THEN jack up the prices of hotdogs and snacks

Ha. Would be fun to watch though. THink of the money maker that would be. 1 on 1 for Coach Smart. CP3 versus DWade. Pay per view.

It could pay for the salary!

 

[deaclite]

It wasn't that long ago that DWade went up against Josh Howard. Good stuff.

 

[YoungBuck95]

Cp3 would smash him.



So yeah. Lets do it that way.

 

[bigdoublezero]

It wasn't that long ago that DWade went up against Josh Howard. Good stuff.

Yeah, we know how that one turned out

 

[Biggus Deacus]

Thought we lost that game.

burweedos at the Joel mmmm

 

[Fuck Your Couch]

Marquette went to the Final Four that year as a 3 seed. We lost in the round of 32 as a 2 seed.

 

[bigdoublezero]

To frickin Auburn

To Auburn, as I recall. Howard had a bum ankle.

That was the game that inspired Skip to make the Joel the atmosphere it was.
