The Dbacks policies toward veterans is sub-par compared to the rest of the league. Discount ONLY on Sundays? ANYONE can buy a discounted Military ticket on the Dbacks website, so what's the point? Maybe it's because Kendrick weaseled out of Vietnam somehow that he has no clue as to how to treat us.

Uh, the Dbacks as well as all major sports teams fall all over themselves to support veterans. Perhaps you haven't noticed they recognize veterans EVERY SINGLE GAME?

I think it's great when an organization does something to show support for veterans but I don't remember being promised a free ride. Personally, you sound to me like a little kid on Xmas whining about receiving clothes instead of a toy.

This is how I see it. I was at the game yesterday and they asked all the veterans and military to stand (an every game ritual).

We received a loud ovation. Many people around me thanked me for my service and were especially kind the remaining of the game. I was humbled by this. Having people show the gratitude to me meant more than a few dollars off a ticket.
