Excuse me, but maybe the fact that people want to stay home and watch the games on TV has little to do with the fact that they are actually available to watch on TV, and far more with experiences such as yours.

I know this was a few years ago, but things haven’t changed much, as far as I can see. How many people, in this economy, can even afford to attend a game in person, what with $15 parking a couple of $70 (f you’re lucky) game tickets and a $40 concession budget?

Let’s see, spend $200 to see a game live, or hang out at home with my friends, watch it on my 55in flat screen in HD, and avoid spending a day’s wages for the privilege of waiting in lines for everything from getting into the parking garage to getting out of it again.

Cut the costs so that an average working guy can afford to take his family for less than a vacation to Disneyland, and maybe then you’ll understand . The problem is that the owners are very wealthy and out of touch with the “Joe Average” who fills the seats. They have these mega TV contracts and corporations filling their luxury boxes at $100K a season to prop them up.

That means that the case cannot be refiled. They generally do this when there are severe problems with either the complaint itself, or with the complaintant.

It’d be nice if I was working: I’m getting bored, and they’ll only allow me to spend so much time per day/week at the rehab facility (90 minutes/day, 3 days/week)!
