You still haven't explained how you calculated your percentages. Maybe if I provided you an example, you would understand.

Below is an example on how to calculate the percent change of some school in Mississippi athletic budget from 2011 to 2012.

Athletic Budget
2012 $5,882,042
2011 $6,909,322

Budget difference between 2011 to 2012
$5,882,042 - $6,909,322 = -$1,027,280

Budget percent difference between 2011 to 2012
$6,909,322 / -$1,027,280 X 100% = -14.87% ~ -15%

Therefore, the school had an approximately 15% decline in its athletic budget from 2011 to 2012.

Now, do you see how easy that was?

No such thing as a budget. It's how much we HAD to spend. We obviously cut expenses somewhere, got sponsorships for something, or had less travel...

See how easy that was. LOL

Okay, since it's not a budget, just replace the word "Budget" with the words "Expense/Revenue". And by the way, it was only an example.

Too easy!!!!!!! :emlaugh:

But YOU said it was a budget. LOL!!

It could have been a budget, since I didn't stipulate any particular school. But I presume you see some familiarity in the numbers. And even if those are actual numbers from some school in Mississippi, I hope they didn't reduce their expenses and revenues by 15% in the athletic department in order to fund consultant fees for a proposed domed stadium. :emlaugh:

It could have been? Either it is or it isn't.

Have you PM'd JR yet about those BC numbers dropping? You're the only one trying to refute them.
Even Jrock and sujagdead can't refute those numbers. They understand them and accept them for what they are.

Perhaps if Worm can get yall more than six wins, by the time you make it to New Orleans, perhaps you'll be able to draw 50,000.

You do realize that things go in cycles. The attendance dropped off in the 80's, but soon rose back in the 90's.

Also, one thing I do know for sure, the -$1,027,280 I previously posted represented the difference in money that a certain school in Mississippi didn't spend or didn't have to spend on its athletic department from 2011 to 2012. I wonder why there was such a drastic decrease in funds in one year. I hope it didn't have anything to do with some domed stadium.
