But...they don't get what they get. The fans supported the team before and it simply didn't matter. We can sit here all day and pretend it'd be different this time, but there's no reason to believe that.
Regardless of what side of the fence you sit on, it's clear nothing will change at this point. The fans will not support Dolan's product because they think/know he will not invest that support back into his team. Dolan will not invest in his team because he thinks/knows the fans will not support his product.
We can keep doing this stupid dance for another 20 years, or Dolan could just fucking sell the team.
There is no reason to believe that?
There are literally dozens of reasons, economical and societal which explain this. Metro population decline, economic conditions, market conditions, league conditions, baseballs free market, etc.
I have no idea what you WANT them to do.
Why are fans worried about the level of investment in the team rather than THE ACTUAL TEAM THAT IS REALLY FUCKING GOOD?
