and the only way they will ever be competative is with a salary cap.

Seems everytime i go to the game they end up winning. i like the priates amd as long as there in pittsburgh i go to the games.
why? so more money can go into the pockets of the owners?
money is the road to all evil
close enough
no maybe more of the fucking money could go to pay for these fucking facilities they just have to have…
ok so quit acting like the pirates aren’t guilty of throwing seasons for cash then :doh:

baseball is cool if it’s homerun derby
that why you need to ask me questions, we proabably have 100’s of discounts and programs like that. If you come to a game and pay full price, you probably aren’t tryin to get a discount. there are coupons for buy one get one free for a long as the eye can see. you wouldn’t believe how complex our marketing strategy is in outlying areas and how aggressively we go after the schools, churches and groups. everything you said we already do. I think part of the problem is we give away to many free tickets.
dont get me started on some of your sales guys there…
BS
i suggested the pirates do the same that the reds do.
When you did the military program for the those few months we had buss loads of people going down for each game…quote" hell i got in for free that means thats all the more beer and hotwings i can eat and not get pissed off about the outragouse food prices"
offer free tickets for ALL mon-thursday games for military and DOD. (hell even police officers and firemen…
because people arnt showing up…but with this poeple will be more open to buy more food and mechendise
but they didnt wanna hear that…present that to them for next season…
another quote"why th ehell would i go see that Pirates and pay out my ass for food and beer when i could cruise down to washington pay less then 5 bucks get beer hotdog and watch players that actually care about the game"
as far as your complex martketing stragy i think thats a problem its a little to complex… in marketing best thing to think before you start your next years marketing plan “how do i sell this to a city thats broke”!!!
if that was the case, that would be nice. However, the owners are 10x greedier than the players and will try to fuck the city and the taxpayer in any way they can.
in either case I think the whole system needs a cap and they need to pay for what they want.
agreed. but you cant put a cap on owners profits. That would be unamerican.
But you can make them pay for their own stuff. That will put an end to a lot of this endless circle bullshit.
why is it the me thinks you mean the video game variety when you say that :hs:
the pirates are not the reds. thats the choice you have. If you want what the reds offer drive to cincy. i’m not being a dick about it but i’m not gonna go to mcdonalds and expect them to make me a whopper.
aside from work i think the military get enough discounts and the pirates should give them anymore free tickets than they do during the holiday weekends. police and fireman too…gimmie a break. i guess tow truck drivers that might happen to tow a policeman or fireman so they can take it to a machanic to get fixed so they can get to their job. i guess the mechanic too. here’s a little inside tip, pirates get a fraction of the food because its contracted through aramark, the pirates get NONE or the parking cut.
I thought the marketing this year was genious!
The Cum Hungry Pirates!
