Skidmarks have to be involved somewhere.

I don't understand why you're so offended by PSLs.

It's a double charge for no additional goods or services. It's a scummy practice.

Not really, it's like a debenture at a golf club. You can recover the money by selling it on, so it isn't a charge per se. At worst it's a forced purchase of an asset.

The alternative would be making tickets more expensive.

Everyone loses money on PSLs. They are a terrible investment. PSL agreement language states they are not to be treated as an investment, but that hasn't stopped every team from advertising them as such.

I don't think that last part is true. You think anyone who might go to one NFL game a season is gonna pay 300 bucks for a nosebleed seat in November? I don't.

PSL's are just penalties for being too invested in the team.

No, I don't either. Which is why PSLs are probably unavailable if you want a brand new $1.5B stadium for your team.

Although having said that, I just did some rough math off the top of my head. Let's say the Jets and Giants sold 50,000 PSLs at an average of $3000 each, that's $150M towards the stadium costs. Assuming 16 games in a season at the Meadowlands and 90,000 at each game, that's 1,440,000 tickets per season.  You'd only need to put $10 on each ticket for ten years to recover close to the same amount. I guess PSLs have the advantage of giving you a significant amount of short term cash though.

PSLs were legal robbery.

Between that, hiding concussion truths, how they treat retired NFL players, and Rodger freaking Goodell, this league can eat a dick.

I wish fanbases had enough people to boycott PSLs.
