It is not like the old times when we would have been jumping off of bridges after this collapse. That being said, Tampa/St. Pete does not deserve a baseball team. There were "20" fans there and half were Red Sox fans. What a Debbie Downer. More importantly, GO BULLS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your saying the Red Sox have only 10 fans? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a tried and true theory- whenever a fan base results to attendance smack it is because they can't talk smack about what is actually taking place on the field.

But you have had playoff games that have not sold out and I bet you that will happen again this time. Regardless, I do hope the Rays do well in the playoffs they are a very good team. Of course I will also be chearing for anyone who plays the Yankees. As to the comment by Matt. We are the NATION live with it. Now, Go Bulls!

Do some fact checking before you post typical ignorant responses. The Rays have never had a playoff game not sell out. Makes me wonder if you actually know anything about the Rays.

As someone else has already pointed out, the Rays have never had a playoff game not sell out. Funny, I always chuckle at the "Nation" talking smack about attendance. I guess they forget that through the 70s and 80s they were averaging only 17-22K a game in that "great" sports town. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
