I hate to say it, but our fan base such a bush league group of small-timers. They act like we should be rolling in money yet want to continue on with loss-leaders like home games in Little Rock and 1970s ticket prices with no donation/tiering structure. Most of the callers to local radio shows were ardently against the concept of the SEC Network when it was announced. When RSVP was rolled out a few years ago, by the reaction to it you'd have thought Long announced that he was abolishing the Hog call, building a statue of Houston Nutt outside the BAC, and euthanizing Tusk.
