so many things to say regarding this...

Posted by Mel Profit (aka Mel Profit) Oct 17 '08, 07:58

I'm guilty of complacency too...although, I'm not sure I'd call it that. It's more contentment. 5 Years ago I would have been out at a bar watching the game with 20 people. I would have been drunk, yammering and screaming at everything. Last night I barely watched at home until the 7th inning happened.

I think the economy has alot to do with it as well. No one is going to pay the ticket prices like they used to right now.

And as they alluded to and I mentioned just yesterday...this team isn't very exciting. It's very clinical and efficient. It's almost Yankee Like *shiver*

But I'm all in favor of ticket demand going down. I'm still a good fan, not like all those people I've seen in the stands for the last 6 or 7 years who barely paid attention until someone like Damon got up.

I agree with the economy issues, and that ticket prices got out of control. I don't agree on excitement... - TFox Oct 17, 08:05 4
