Yes, it's an inconvenience, but they don't have much choice. They need to sell more tickets. If not, the reward of playing in the Dome won't last much longer.
Uh, this is an example of having your cake and eating it, too.
There are three teams from Ouachita Parish playing in the 'Dome. Obviously you don't understand live TV has no effect on those deciding whether to travel to the games in New Orleans. In fact, NOLA hoteliers are about to bust in their seams, cuz those three teams are West Monroe, Neville and OCS. Three well-traveling high schools.
Live TV has no effect anymore on the outcome of the attendance. You're either going to the games or not.
LIVE sponsorships of LIVE TV can easily overcome that, but the LHSAA has no idea how to sell live TV rights to offset any loss of ticket sales. They just "give" it to CST.
THAT is how Maddawg (and I) feel about the clueless principals who govern the LHSAA.

Lots of money being left on the table, but lots of money being passed under the table also.
No need. I've emailed him and got a high brow response. He had his mind made up before the heavy rains caused the attendance to be off in 2009. They made their bed with Cox Sports with no intention of turning a profit. I don't do the New Orleans thing. NOTHING has ever sucked more money out of Ouachita Parish than will be sucked out this weekend. And all the money goes to a bunch of ingrates who don't even know were Ouachita Parish is.
