you dont have to be a great salesman if you have a great product.

 

Yes you do if you want to be at the top of the game.

Unfortunately the recruitment has to come before the greatness.

I think there is some truth to that.  

I would rather have both though, a great salesmen and a great product.

If we don't get Frost, I'll predict right now that the sellout streak ends next season.

I should qualify my statement better.  If we don't go after Frost, the sellout streak ends.  If we go after him and he turns it down, it will probably keep going for at least two more years.

 

 

Same prediction people made 10 years ago.  10 years later and mostly sub average results, sellout streak still alive.

I hear this from a lot of people but I don’t think it will happen. It’s like the Saltdogs games....people use it as an excuse to get together with friends, have a company picnic, whatever ... not that they don’t still honor those hard working little dogs who trudged from the salt mine to the Lancaster livery stable with their saddlebags filled with salt to provide preservatives for the pioneers on their way to Oregon country, but it’s mostly a social event and status symbol that they wouldn’t want to give up.

That would be a good argument if I had predicted that no one will go the games.  Ticket pricing, donations, other costs of going to games, are all going up.  And games are easier to watch at home now.  

 

There is a tipping point where the sellout streak will end.  To believe otherwise is delusional.  Avoiding that tipping point is a good thing.

While I think the streak has "ended" a few times I also think that the streak will keep going for the same reasons.  For a lot of the fans it is not about THE game...it is about hanging out with friends, tailgating, catching up, bringing the kids, it is about family and friends for 6-7 Saturday's.

Scott Frost's smile is now considered to be the leading cause of Global Warming.

If a new coach other than Frost comes in, the hope and excitement will be more than enough to keep the streak well past a few years.

Not sure why this turned into a streaking thread??

Because somehow SF has become the answer to North Korea, global warming and poverty as well.

I can see North Korea and poverty, but there isn’t any global warming so that’s crazy.
