Big Ten Network destroying fanbase
I realized this past weekend that I haven’t been much of a Badger basketball fan, and nor have my parents. In the past, my parents have been HUGE Badger fans. They’ve tried to attend as many games as possible or would watch the games on TV. They still watch the Badgers when they can, but they also aren’t as enthusiastic as they once were, and it’s due to the 20+ games being shown on the Big Ten Network. When games are on the BTN, they are forced to hear about the game the next day, and aren’t as emotionally involved with the team, and don’t want to be. I kind of felt the same way during the football season. Why should I get emotionally involved when I don’t know from one day to the next which games I’ll be able to watch.
The fact is, the Big Ten Network is destroying each school’s fan base.
