Quote from: TrotskyI guess the coaches really hate consies, otherwise it seems like a good way to depress tourney revenue for absolutely nothing gained.

How does a consy depress revenue. It increases expenses, but maybe I'm missing something. God knows it's happened many times before.
Cutting the consety depresses revenue.
One extra game, one more chance for people to buy concessions, less reason for fans of the semi- losers to leave town.

But for us long-distance travellers, the second hotel night is already paid for.  That makes it harder to leave town if we're not in the finals.

It's the reason I always hated the Thursday night play-in game.
