3 years ago , I went and Saw a Sox Game in Atlanta and it was Packed! a couple of Atlanta Regulars were telling me how only when the Sox and the Yankees come in did it sell other wise half full. they said even during the play offs tickets were easy to get.
Well it was sold out the day we went. I was shocked at how good the standing room only section was.
50,381
The new ownership group has added seats in every little ass crack of Fenway park. They're trying like hell to increase capacity. They added the Green Monster seats, the right field roof, and "Conigliaro's Corner" (seats way the hell up on top of right field).
I'm sure you meant to say before they bought into the Yankee business plan of buying championships.
The new owners bought the team in 2002 and immediately started making renovations to the park. Red Sox tickets have been very hard to get since this new group took over because they've fielded good teams and have marketed the hell out them.
Same difference.
Well someone's gotta do it.
So how are the attendance numbers a fair comparison to the Rockies, who have only been around for like 12 years, have never won the WS, never had a 89 year championship drought end, etc?
Fair comparison?
Hell if I know. I'm not sure why you're asking me that. I was just answering your previous question.
the red sox business plan is far superior to the yanks, at least since '01, in terms of playoff appearances and success.
I think it is going to get a lot harder for them from here on out. Every player they consider is going to demand the big money because they know Boston can spend it. Dice K was just the beginning.the red sox business plan is far superior to the yanks, at least since '01, in terms of playoff appearances and success.
boston.
are you kidding me dude? who would you rather have playing ss, Lugo or ARod? The sox will do whatever they want, they have more money that god. Lugo did not have the best year playing for us. Great defense but was seriously hurting on the other end.
if that happens, i wanna buy the poster of him and varitek, hugging each other.
i'm 99.999% sure that IAB was joking about the indispensability of Lugo.
oh, I feel like an idiot now. I am hungover and tired as sh!t from last night and my e-sarcasm detector did not go off. ha.
Seems like a bad idea to me. I would sit Ortiz because he has trouble running bases. Isn't Youkilis hitting 500?
I agree. Sit Ortiz and play Youkilis and Lowell.
amen.
I'd sit Lowell and shift Youkilis over.
It's true that Ortiz can't move at all. I don't agree that Lowell is hitting as well as he is, at least for the most part. Ortiz wasn't productive last night, but overall his numbers are better than Lowell's.
no dh is way more core than having a dh. unless you're saying that the french are core?
you <--- ... ---> sarcasm
Vacation in CO and take in a game. Best ballpark outside of Camden Yard.
