bwbollom,

sorry, didn't mean to sound so bitchy. truth is i'm just worried about the rising costs of eveerything and how to make ends meet and there are so many things we NEED that aren't luxuries and how drayton has raised ticket prices AGAIN while lowering payroll and yet the fans/writers can't wait to blame it all on the PLAYERS...

I understand that. We try to go to a game whenever we're in Houston and the Astros aren't on the road and each year those excursions get more and more expensive. I haven't even looked into ticked prices this year, but I'm sure it won't be cheap for the couple of games we are able to attend. It's just the two of us and we don't drink beer, but once you roll in parking, a couple of hotdogs (or something), a couple of cokes, and the increased tickets...even if we get cheapseat tickets, it ends up being an expensive night out when we're able to go. If we had kids...
