PromoTheRobot Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 Free agents still signing for obscene amounts. Manny Ramierez "insulted" by a $25M/year offer. I want to know when this crazy gravy train goes off the rails? All sports rely on TV advertising and luxury boxes. The car companies are all broke. Banks and brokers are hurting. Companies have no money left to spend on suites. So when does the crap finally hit the fan? PTR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When taxpayers stop electing people who use our money to pay for new stadiums and hand it to broken automakers and others who buy all that ad space.

Chalkie Gerzowski Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 I would expect MLB stadiums to look more vacant. In the case of the Florida Marlins, that should mean attendance going from 500 to 250. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
