Re(1): #130 - Would shorter seasons be better?

I used to really like seeing what kind of roster was coming down for Bridgeport & Milford each season. It kept things fresh and interesting. Newport and Orlando also have had that kind of buzz in recent years.

That all said, short seasons would really stink for those who watch only simulcast and webcast. Unless all the players were sending out their signal, there could be times of only one fronton going, or none at all. And...look what happened to the Orlando players when they went seasonal. Would those guys go home?

It worked in 1980, even 1990, but today I think it is not feasible unless you had two different frontons working together ala Newport/Palm Beach, Dania/Milford and World Jai Alai in the past, and the fans had access.
