Thanks to the power of fan disgruntlement, one NBA team is doing something that no other profressional sports franchise has ever done, to my knowledge. The LA Kings are opening up their books to examination by a fan. The fan, upset along with many others around the country at the constantly rising cost of seats and hot dogs, yet continually bombarded with stories about how his favorite team was losing money, made the offer to the president of the team's parent company. To his surprise, his offer was accepted. So Philip Propper, money manager and (you heard it here first) my pick for future NBA exec., will get his chance. His findings will be posted online at www.letsgokings.com in about two weeks. Here's hoping he finds some reporting errors that allow a significant drop in hot dog commodities over the next fiscal period.
