Got Gro to 400.

LLPP might need to take a page from TDT's book- a group hug and Kumbaya may be necessary right about now

Twins season series 2-0.  Yippee.  At the end of the year, who cares?  You'll just be complaining about your team's payroll.  If you had some real fans, maybe you could afford to pay a few people.  The Sox sell out every game regardless of the product on the field.  Sox fans don't just show up when the team makes the playoffs and start swinging friggin towels around.  Wahhhhhhhhhh.  Plenty of teams have won the world series with a small payroll.

You have the advantage of a stadium with incredible history that people like TDT come from all over the US to see. We have a huge bubble with fake grass inside.

Other factors:
Fenway capacity: 38,805
Metrodome cap:  45, 423

Mass pop: 6.3 million
MN pop:    5.0 million


A lot easier to fill your stadium when you have 7,000 less seats, 1.3 million more people in much much much closer vicinity to the stadium not to mention the Sox draw fans from throughout New England.

We'll see what kind of numbers the Twins can draw once we get a stadium outside where baseball was meant to be played!

Also, you should realize that ticket sales make up a relatively small amount of a team's budget compared to TV contracts and merchandise sales.

JT would like to try those seats above the Green Monster.  They look cool. 

[lewdogg11]

JT, i'd like to try them too.  I just don't know enough people or have enough $$$ to get em.  Maybe someday i'll get hit by someone driving a Lexus, who has some extra Monster tickets in his backpocket.  But i'd rather punch that person rather than take his tickets so I guess i'm screwed.

Can I be the guy in the middle on his knees that nobody can see?

All in fun LD, all in fun. Hell, I'd pay to watch soccer if it was played at Fenway. OK, maybe not. But thanks guys for all the soccer babes shots. Not often I can go semi-chub at work reading my computer.

Thanks for the karma errybody... The 'Gro has few enemies, it's a good thing the friendosaurus nation doesn't post.

Steakums... haven't had those in a while, but I'm sure if you scraped out the insides of my arteries you could find a few.  Gro had the next best thing for lunch. Chik-fil-a. Yummy.

So 'Gro was getting some looks from this girl at said chick-fil-a. 2 problems though... 1. She was with her mom, the ultimate game killer. 'Gro doesn't run game in front of the parental units.  2. She could of been anywhere from 16-26, and being with her mom didn't help me figure that one out.

WWLLPP Do?
