Welcome to capitalism. The product sells.


Baseball is THE sport for players.

rewards, huge.

How is it a ripoff? The people pay
through the tasty beer commercials,
to the Cardinal's hat on their head.

Now the City symphony... thats a tough gig.
Somebody is getting ripped off when a guy pitches that badly and gets 10 million a year right after doing it.For one thing,the money should be spent on somebody a whole lot better than that guy is.So,everybody involved with that organization is getting ripped off.All I know is the price to go to the game,park,etc,has gone through the roof.Yea,people go cuz instead of buying houses they rent apartments,or even more likely they are in incredible debt(even though they have good income.)They have zero discipline.It wasn't this way in the mid-late 70's.It was a great game for the fans then.
