    I wouldn't b/c they'll be raising prices so you'll make up for that one other preseason game. 16 games is perfect but it's all about milking us out of more money justlike PSLs, night games in dec in cold weather cities, SB in feb,...

    You are right about that. The only reason the Jets/Giants "needed" a new stadium was b/c they wanted to charge more money to guys in club seats.

    But, every once in a while, their greed works to our benefit. Lets say a season tickets cost $1050 per year including two worthless PS games. The real cost per game is $131.25 ($1050/8).

    If they eliminated a preseason game and replaced it with a real game, I would gladly pay $1181 ($131*9) for the same seat. Anything below that is a win. Plus, one preseason game might be fun. Two is a beating.

    If you like the records out of 16 games, you will just have to reply on Per game averages to compare eras. It sucks, I like the records too, but the old timers probably felt the same way when it was 14, etc. also, the players will still
    have HoF recognition to memorialize their achievements.
