Pujols…Angel fans will pay 156,000/game for 10 years

Boy, Angel fans between Pujols and Wilson, you guys will be paying out a fortune to see these two play for the next five years….252,000 per game for the two players, and then for another five years, 156,000 per game just for Pujols…That is based on 160 games per year….per game, folks, per game…when will it stop? If the average attendance is 30,000 fans per game, the $8.40 per ticket to pay for those two players. At 80 home games, 16.80 per ticket. If they play the other seven starters three million per year, that’s another 4.38 per ticket or 8.76 per ticket for 80 home games. Well, what about managers, coaches, vice presidents, owners, ticket sales people, field operations people, and I can only imagine all the others involved….That has to be another bunch…but 8.40 (or 16.80) for two people…Wow….I’m not jealous, I’m mortified….But you fans are the ones to decide, if it’s important to you, you can pay, but as for me……FORGET ABOUT IT…..

Thank goodness for TV and radio where one only has to support the advertisers. Shopping is always fun.

Yes,, and one generally has a better seat on his on sofa or lazy boy, and much cheaper cokes and popcorn…
