I merely suggested adding a bus service to the end of the C-train line, in the event that the Vipers fold. A couple buses would then provide easier transport for anyone coming from most of Calgary. Doing that doesn't mean you "have to do it for everyone else." Why would it?

I've been to several events where buses were used to provide a link between mass public transit and the event's venue, when train stations weren't present nearby. I don't see why that's a bad idea.

Apparently you don't think that's necessary, but I'm sure there's more people like me, who would love to go to games if it were more convenient. It's not, and so I don't go. I never said it was their 'responsibility' to provide transport, but in my mind, it would help fill the stands and create a lot of new fans.
