    Cards Raise Ticket Prices

    Okey dokey. At Sun Devil Stadium, my seats were $61.20 per game (I was off in a previous quote) which is 90% of the single game price of $68 per game. For season tickets, we paid the equivalent of full price for the eight regular season games and half price for the preseason games. I've always...

    The spygate saga continues......

    I'm sure there is nothing I can say that will make you think that Rich McKay is telling the truth, but let's face it, the Patriots are the only team this charge has been made against, and they are the only team that evidence has been produced about. Let me know when you have evidence that...

    Cards Raise Ticket Prices

    I don't get upset about preseason game prices. I figure it's really not being charged. I sit in Section 111. Last year, our tickets were $82.50 per game on the season ticket. Single game tickets were $102.50. If I had been allowed to buy 8 single game tickets, that would have been $820. For...

    Cards Raise Ticket Prices

    By the way, were you aware that single game tickets were already higher than season ticket prices?

    Cards Raise Ticket Prices

    Wow, so does that mean that my sideline seats will cost $105 and $120 in 2009 and 2010 respectively (steady progression of annual increase)? Supply and demand will kick in at some point. It'll be weird seeing the stadium less full.

    Cards Raise Ticket Prices

    What an underwhelming response. My seat in the new stadium is roughly the same as it was at Sun Devil Stadium. Ticket Prices: 2005-$62.30 2006-$75.00 (20.4% Hike) 2007-$82.50 (10.0% Hike) 2008-$92.50 (12.1% Hike) Three year hike: 48.5% And while I'm sure we're all happy that Cardinals...

    Flozell Adams anyone?

    :yeahthat: And to top it off, he's getting a little fragile in his old age. I say let someone else sink their money into him.

    Belichick denies Patriots taped Rams' 2002 Super Bowl walk-through

    Truthfully, there was a hint of hope in that last one as well. Every line before that one had an attitude of "things are better than they seem." The last one gave no room for things getting worse. I don't know what I would have done if Atlanta or St. Louis had managed to beat us. But a...

    Belichick denies Patriots taped Rams' 2002 Super Bowl walk-through

    I understand. You have to realize that the rule I followed required that, as the season went on, I did not allow myself to change the text I had already written. And when I got to that point, it was following a second consecutive road loss, and to the Saints who were not (in my opinion) the...

    Belichick denies Patriots taped Rams' 2002 Super Bowl walk-through

    Bringing this back to the Cardinals, if "everbody cheats," and the Cardinals are certainly part of "everbody," what evidence has been found of the Cardinals cheating?

    Belichick denies Patriots taped Rams' 2002 Super Bowl walk-through

    And I don't buy the "everybody cheats" defense. If everybody cheats, then everybody needs to be punished. Yes, I know the NFL just wants this to go away, and if Arlen Specter didn't get involved, it probably would just go away. Shame on Roger Goodell for joining in the cover-up. As to Specter...

    Belichick denies Patriots taped Rams' 2002 Super Bowl walk-through

    That's not the excuse the team tried (remember, I'm not talking about Walsh here...I'm talking about September 2007), they admitted guilt but denied that they had any real purpose in cheating. How naive (or insert your own adjective here) does someone have to be to believe that they weren't...

    Belichick denies Patriots taped Rams' 2002 Super Bowl walk-through

    Random thoughts: Since teams usually update signals, why would anyone care about defensive signals other than to make halftime adjustments? So when he says that it was never used for halftime adjustments, I have to assume he is either incredibly wasteful/stupid or he is lying. And if he's...

    If things couldnt get any worse for the Patriots.

    I just don't buy the "everybody does it" argument. If it's true that every team cheats, then every team needs to be punished for cheating. One of the hallmarks of football, for me, is that the rules are so very rigid. There is a line of scrimmage, they have to gain 10 yards for a first down...

    Membership cost questionnaire

    And when you talk the relatively small number of $500, it sounds reasonable. But is that customer service worth an extra $2000 a year? Besides, GoDaddy has nice customer service, and to top it off, they're a local company. Your server will probably be physically closer to your home than it is...

    Membership cost questionnaire

    Again, I say just call on your negotiating skills. So you've found an alternative that will provide the service for $320 per month, and it's probably worth something to you to avoid a move. So maybe they drop you to $330 or $340 a month and understand that they need to do that to keep your...

    Membership cost questionnaire

    Allow me one additional point. I'm sure Deru is a fine company with people interested in providing a quality product. But they're a small player in the online world, and while they may be a great choice for people with smaller needs, perhaps this site is simply an example of one that is not best...

    Membership cost questionnaire

    GoDaddy isn't tiny. For that matter, neither is ix. Either one will suit your needs (probably better than your current provider thanks to economies of scale). But again, it could be as simple as going to your current provider, telling them that they need to reduce their price to $15 a month, or...

    Membership cost questionnaire

    Okay, looking at the averages, with 45,000 page views per day and looking at a long month of 31 days, that's about 1,395,000 million page views per month. If you assume that each page has a megabyte of data to transfer, that's 1400 GB of data transfer per month. I, too, host a forum for...

    Boldin, Fitz and Johnson...

    Dallas was the only team Smith played for in 1978, and while he was on the roster for 12 games, he caught no regular season passes. His last year in St. Louis was 1977.

    Dr Z (CNNSI) ranks the announcers

    I generally agree, but the throwaway paragraph about Arizona at San Francisco with Mike, Mike and Mike made them sound better than they were. Any good that Mike and Mike brought to it were offset by the incredible bad that Mike brought to it. I'm sure we all know which Mike is which.

    Walsh attorney talking to NFL - not good for Pats

    Nonsense. I would assume that anyone who doesn't already know this also can't read or carry on intelligent conversation. Hmmm. What are you saying about me, Russ?

    NY Giants Return to UOP Stadium

    The Bears and Saints didn't suffer drop offs last year, they just stopped playing above their abilities. The Giants are way better this year than either or those teams was last year.
