There must be quite a few people who like the way MLB is going.
According to this: List of sports attendance figures - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Almost 75 million people attended a game last year.
According to this link, baseball has the highest attendance numbers of any sport: Ranking sports? popularity: And the silver goes to... | The Economist
Not watching games on tv, but actually going out to the ball park and being there. So, apparently your opinion is not shared by a lot a MLB fans
Apparently my opinion certainly IS shared by a lot of Rays fans, and here's the evidence of it. There are many threads in this forum, but if you look through the forum, you will find hundreds of posts in agreement with me >>

Hundreds of posts online against almost 75 million fans buying tickets and attending a game. lol
Now back to this "major harm" claim. I can see being disappointed. I can see not wanting to find a new hobby or new teams to watch. But neither of those two things are "major harm" by any stretch of the imagination.
Care to define the "major harm" the citizenry is experiencing? (I'm guessing you won't)

You have a curious habit of ignoring posts that have refuted your hollow "points".
1. Your fans buying tickets notion was vaporized in post # 80.
2. For every 1 fan writing a post in a message board, there's thousands more who think the same thing, and don't speak out.
3. You've been answered on this "harm" thing, amd you've been told you've been answered, yet you continue to pester me on it. Clearly, this is harrassment, and I guess I'll keep reporting it.

2. Fan attendance is not a valid criterea for assessing popularity of the money culture that baseball has descended into. Ticket prices, parking, concessions, etc are all $ky high, and games are primarily being attended by the wealthier sector of the fan base, who are the least likely to be upset with the present money decadence.
Fans going to games are a relatively small % of the total fan base. Possibly as low as 10%, with 90% watching the games at home on TV, and in sports bars. Nice try though. LOL.

My taxes should not be spent on your private enterprise. Business's should survive or fail based on consumer patronage and not government handouts.

Oh, and there are always disgruntled fans when their teams sucks. The true fans stick it out and enjoy the wins when they come.

Good point.

You got 2 things wrong . 1.) I'm talking about the teams being govt owned, not "private enterprise. 2.) Handled properly, the teams will bring in profits, so netwise, there is nothing "spent"and no taxes necessary.
nobody would be allowed to win in the name of fairness. If any team got too good they would break it up into the bad teams and visa versa. You don't really want that.

1. No, you made some suppositions. That changes nothing about the fact that almost 75 million fans attend games. There are an average of over 30k fans attending 2,500 games across the US. That is hardly "only the rich" going to the games. When I have attended Braves games, the crowd was hardly the "upper crust" of the financial world.
2. Hundreds of fans write on a message board, and there are thousands for each of them? More supposition? You certainly have no evidence to back that up.
3. Yes, I have been staying on it. Because, as usual, you refuse to actually answer. You have not stated one single way that a fan has actually been harmed. Being disappointed in a sports team or a sport in general is not "harm". And it is certainly not "major harm".

Govt owned
This makes no sense. The disparity of some teams being much better than others is something which is characteristic of the PRESENT situation, not what I suggest.

1. Maybe you are supposing. I'm not. I'll say it again. Mostly wealthier fans are the ones who go to games. It costs more than what most people can afford > FACT, not supposition. And yes, your fans buying tickets notion was vaporized in post # 80.
2. Only an idiot doesn't know that many more people don't speak out about their feelings than ones who do.. Only an idiot would talk about "evidence" for that. The evidence is having a brain in your head.
3. Of course it's major harm. Again you harass. More reports. YOU KNOW the harm as I repeatedly have described it. Either you don't define is as harm (which is YOUR problem not mine), or you're lying that you don't see it (which is more likely the case)
Once again the headcase has fabricated his own reality and is demanding that everyone accept it as a given. The nut should be quarantined in the Conspiracy Forum where he can only affect the already infected.

Oh God! Who left the cage door open ? Sorry, Winterborn. You'll have to be demoted. You're not USMB TROLL # 1. Not now that Uncletard has shown up. He is, without a doubt USMB TROLL, Loon, Loose Wire # 1. You'll have to settle for # 2, now.
As usual, crazy Uncletard, having escaped from the attic where his relatives had him chained up, now creates straw men ripe for attack. No, tard, I didn't demand anything more than legislators demand acceptance of laws they pass. Or doctors' orders prescribed for people to follow. So tired of his immigration loonieness, the crazy uncle will enjoy his time of freedom out of the attic to rummage through other threads. Pheeeew!!

Aw, I was hoping you'd say "breathing." Ah well. As for your little socialist rant - too fucking bad. The owners of professional baseball teams are OWNERS. Go start up your own little communist league if you want. See how well you and your workers of the world unite on the diamond. Not too fucking well, I'd imagine.
