Apparently students aren't jumping at paying more for our sports teams. Odd that.

It's not odd, though. I didn't get health insurance until I was able to get it through work--it was too expensive. Why would I want to pay an increased fee to buy the Devils a new stadium...or anything of the sort? It's not something they ask students about here (unless there's somewhere that we cast votes on other than student body elections that I don't know about), but if I were given the choice, I'd vote against such fees.
Maybe I'm just not a sports person.
