Also, slotted draft pick pay probably is bad for the Bengals as they realize they can get cheap labor and not have to negotiate hard.
Yes, there's 1/32 "share of the pie", but selling more tickets and merchandise will still result in more money regardless whether it's shared or not.

It can...I just don't see that as a prerogative of the Bengals. Maybe it's the market they're in? I don't know.
The stadium is really plain compared to other stadiums that merge entertainment into the stadium. PBS is basically concrete and concession stands and pro shops. Other stadiums are all about the experience.
