Although Sports would be one explanation--
It tends to make all its money off the team trips, but it's considered
at the bottom of the list.

After several WL trips, I went back to a Movies trip just to
squeeze in a couple cheap days before AKL, and still loved the "Disney
commando" atmosphere, even if the Fantasia pool had been in rehab.

I've actually found they're good warmups, if you're planning to
resort-hop up to a Moderate or Deluxe mid-trip, and just want to get all
the "THIS is why I'm here..." park thrills out of your system early. :)
