kurt landes again il executive of the year

For the second year in a row, Kurt Landes, general manager of the IronPigs, has been named the International League's Executive of the Year. In their three years of existence, the 'Pigs have drawn a whopping 1,889,273 fans. This year they set a franchise record of 645,905. A capacity crowd at Coca-Cola Park is just under 9,000. Despite the dismal economy, the IronPigs have continued to draw fans at a record rate. What would happen if they ever fielded a decent team?
