The players winning money is cool but what the fans get out of the In-Season Tournament (alien.top)

I think that’s what’s lost on this new tournament, 500k is amazing for the winning players, but what’s different for the fans? 500k is a drop in the bucket for the superstars, but it’s amazing for the players lower on the depth chart, but will that really draw more fans to watch the game?

The In-Season Tournament exists because now they don't sell the rights to the 82 game regular season, they sell the rights to the 'Tournament', other regular season games, and playoffs. They're going to get a bag out of it and don't really care about the fans.
