reports:
As the Indiana Pacers bolted to a
franchise-best record, television ratings for the team's games on Fox
Sports Indiana
during the first month of the season have
skyrocketed.
The Pacers rating gains come at a time
when TV audiences are increasingly fractionalized by continually growing
cable TV
and online offerings. In this day and age,
any double-digit percentage rating increase is reason to celebrate.
That's
why Fox Sports officials have as much
reason to smile as Pacers officials and fans.
The TV ratings for Pacers games on Fox
were up 113 percent in November over the same period a year ago,
according to New
York-based Nielsen Media Research. That is
the team’s highest opening month since 2005 and the increase is the
largest
in the NBA this season.
Overall, the Pacers’ local television
ratings ranked fourth in the NBA, up from 13th at the end of last
season, according
to Nielsen. The Pacers Nov. 27 game at
Charlotte (6.45) was the highest-rated regular season game on Fox Sports
Indiana since
April 20, 2005 (6.52, season finale, vs.
Chicago), according to Nielsen.
No word yet on whether the Pacers success on the court and increased TV ratings will make the team more profitable and less demanding of taxpayer subsidies. I'm going to guess "no" though.

Of course they will! Well maybe Jim Morris could talk some sense into the one Simon that is alive (can't remember which one it is) but I know that ain't happening. Most successful people have no problem taking free money! If they don't someone else will. Just make enough money for yourself and then you won't really don't care what other people do. You will be to busy having fun!
