Closed for Business

Recently, Hofstra University announced the cancellation of the football program after 70 or so years.

Citing the financial drain of $4.5M annually as a major factor was Saul Rabinowitz, Hofstra president.

Home attendance averaged 4260 per game. Lacrosse at the school draws more fans.

So why is SoulSlam typing here?

Because I am sick of the whining and boo-hooing I hear on sports radio here, namely WFAN.
A couple of observations:
  • This wasn't exactly Michigan or Ohio State
  • Funny how nobody calling these radio shows mentions whether they were season ticket holders or not. You couldn't fill a Wal-mart on Black Friday with their avg. gate
  • Isn't a university supposed to be about learning
  • Where was all the complainers when Hofstra was playing. Can't remember one call about the powerhouse from LI

    Go Away.
