We are a team that people think is gonna suck, so we have to offer lower prices for season tickets.

Thinks of yields (which move opposite to prices) as the amenities—like throwing in hot dogs and drinks to make the tickets more enticing.

Begging @minakimes.bsky.social to put her economic hat back on for a quick minute and tell us all wtf is going on. Very serious people are freaking out but it feels like trying to figure out why a drunk person is crying bc basis points? gilt crisis?? Higher yields=bad??? Girl, wut?
