and i think that's where the problem is. while i can see lowering attendance a bit so that there arent as many sellouts, i dont think the answer is lowering it by lets say 25%, so that absolutely no sellouts occur, and moreover the worse-off teams have atrocious attendance. there must be a way to curve attendance instead of lowering it as a whole. that way, good teams get 70-85% capacity and only a select few really good teams sell out (market HUGE, loyalty HUGE).

all in all, i think the attendance system should resemble a bell curve shifted to the right, so that the average % of spectators at a ball game is in the 60-70% range instead of lowering attendance as if it were a single sum (like a bar, where every team's attendance is lowered the same %)
