Yeah, that 12,000 average doesn't mean much when they are cut rate and freebie tickets. When you see this on a new team, you can excuse it as trying to build the fan base. On an established team after 15 years, it's the sign of things gone south. It seems the only ones who don't see this are Gary, a couple of fans and the CoG.
Hulsizer I just don't get as even if he can get the team for nothing, he's still responsible for the debts. The only thing I can see is he's deluded by Gary's salesmanship, he's willing to spend for a new toy or he's got an out to move the team and I've heard he can't.
