I know you are being sarcastic, but you know you aren't even on the right page here. No idea how much we will make, but to show you why Mount Fan brings up a good point, let's run the numbers really quick:
Comcast seats 18k. According to the Post it is capable of generating $1 million in seating revenue per game. I can't imagine the Twerps are giving us 10% of that, and no more. So that is $100k in revenue right there. We haven't even paid our basketball coaching staff for one year on that. Add whatever we are getting for having that game on TV (not much), and it will be our best gross of the year, without a doubt. But I don't think you pay basketball expenses for one year on that game, and no way you cover the athletic budget for 2.
