re game length was re braves update i sent a version of this post out a while ago but it was swallowed by the void my apologies if anyone ends up receiving it sherri nichols writes in article apr vax clarku edu hhenderson vax clarku edu writes snichols adobe com sherri nichols writes i just don t happen to think that the minutes added to the length of games over the last years has added anything interesting how would you quantify that i suppose an easy way would be to look at attendance figures anyone got the numbers attendance figures aren t going to quantify anything about my personal opinion which the above is clearly stated as add to me to the end of my sentence if you re confused about what i meant oh no i wasn t confused i understood that it was your personal opinion but i thought we were discussing the need to shorten games the arguments which declare this need seem to hinge on the assertion that long games bore people and otherwise discourage them from going to the ballpark i d like to see if the increased length of games has negatively affected attendance if it has then there is a problem and something should be done about it if it hasn t then there isn t a problem and there s no need to monkey with things as they are heather hhenderson vax clarku edu
