Unfortunately for them, reality doesn't hold that up. I can't wait for them to crash back down to Earth. Their diluted fan base is acting as if they will never have a losing season again. I'm just sitting back and waiting for the inevitable collapse. I see a zero win season in the not too distant future for them. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The numbers absolutely do not add up. There is nothing anywhere to support an assertion that UCF "makes" $3 to $4 million per home game. If you are going to come on here and dispute actual numbers, you have to be prepared to back it up. I just posted an accounting audit that shows that they, "made" $3.5 million for all of 2017. I couldn't find 2018 numbers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm clearly dealing with the highest caliber fans out there. You guys are pathetic. It's obvious they are making bank, certainly enough to cover their cheap ass stadium-which is all I posed to begin with. Your faux rage clouded you so much that you can't even acknowledge the basics. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No need to get all pissy about it. I just posted the audit that showed that the made $3.5 million in revenue and cleared a little over $1 million for the year. Certainly not $3 - 4 million per game.

It's obvious they are making bank, certainly enough to cover their cheap ass stadium-which is all I posed to begin with. Your faux rage clouded you so much that you can't even acknowledge the basics. You took the BS numbers thrown about in one article by Bianchi as gospel. You questioned the numbers that I provided. I questioned you further on the math and you said you can't compare the NY Yankees per fan, per game revenue to that of UCF. While I agree with that assessment (the Yankees make much more than UCF) the point was to show you that Bianchi's numbers were BS. Just now, Brad said: Sorta new to the argument, but I have to wonder how much “bank” you’re making when you have to have 7 home games. He was trying to make the point that UCF doesn't HAVE to have 7 home games as often as possible. My position is clearly that they do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeing as how they didn't have 7 home games without the postseason that year there's really no argument that they need 7 home games. Which all that does is call bs on their strategy, meaning they could afford at least one 2-1 every now and again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No I didn't, I posted real numbers from an impartial source that showed you were wrong. I then followed up by saying even Mike Bianchi says its 3-4 million, but also that there's no citations listed where he got that from so 'grain of salt alert'. You still being butt hurt over having your (I presume time consuming) research disproven, you resorted to poor reading comprehension at best to try to make it out like I'm some sort of Bianchi apologist or follower...which is asinine. You also followed up with the asinine analogy with baseball and football, which is almost as bad as not reading clearly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
