i heard this on the radio yesterday… i thought it was a joke
Sweet, about time we take away jobs from india :kekegay:
i quit… if they had said they signed a rock thrower from palestine i would have been impressed.
As long as the Pirates are profitable, they will keep doing this ****. Quit buying tix and merch!
i definately clicked on this thinking the real pirates signed 2 kids from india. like the ones that just took over the oil tanker in the middle of the ocean. i was surprised they let that info out. then i saw it was meaning the pgh pirates and i was no longer surprised.
****, i can throw a ball!!
this cracked me up, my supervisor at work tried out for them 3 times
EOE…lame
Winner gets a 1-year contract with the Pirates.
2nd place gets a 2-year contract with the Pirates.
Which one?
Yah the Pirates just hit a new lifetime low on this one.
Wow.
wow, its like the pirates are trying to be a joke…
They haven’t had to try yet, they are a joke. This just takes it to a whole new level.
i broke it down financially that if they buy 20 challenger SE’s at a discount of say 18K. gave one away at 20 games. and sold an average of 5000 more tickets a game (on weekday night games) times our per cap ticket revenue…they would make 1.3 million after expenses. ur ticket to that game would be basically a raffle ticket for the car that night plus a baseball game. i’m sick of these contests that you have to guess how much stuff is in the bed of a truck or if the pitcher hits a gran slam in the 8th inning. and not a dumb ass neon or some hunk of crap…atleast a challenger is a flashy car that people want even if you give away an SE. it has to be black too… hell work a deal with dodge and you might even get them to give a bigger discount for free advertisement. BUT NO… you got a bunch of people that went to “COLLEGE” and studied “MARKETING” and dont know their ass from a hole in the ground… God forbid anyone in that organization use common sense.
struggling economy. some who would win might not afford the taxes on it ^
$1400?
1400 is alot to some
