Miller Lite, like most people and zombies, hates you

that's the thing.....it's not really an investment.  it's a purchase.  nothing more, nothing less.  rjs drinks the hell out of miller lite and he even goes so far as to pimp it here ad naseum.  but miller lite damn sure doesn't give a crap about any input rusty might have.

But they should keep an ear open for complaints and grumbling. When enough people think your product is broken, you are going to lose money. Now a couple of dorks whining on the internet isn't much, but there's a lot of dorks out there.

There were only THREE season ticket accounts that were not renewed this year.

Thought I'd share that bit of ridiculousness.

ticket and merchandise sales tell the eagles that their product is doing just fine.  and there are so many people on the season ticket waiting list, that if every current season ticket holder opted not to renew for the 2009 season, they would have no problem finding replacement buyers.

so that means i moved up 3 places on the list, right? 

and that is such an insignificant number, that the eagles won't give it a second thought.  there's a million and one reasons why those tickets weren't renewed, with the economy being first on the list, so it's no reason for the eagles to start thinking they need to change their business practices.

Their waiting list is so disorganized, if even half the current holders opted out, they'd spend months going through trash cans and desk drawers looking for napkins and scraps of paper with the phone numbers of those people on the waiting list.

1.  Unprecedented modern economic collapse?  Check.
2.  Team loses most beloved and tenured player?  Check.
3.  Team "improves" to 80% failure rate in the NFCC under Andy Reid?  Check.

If true, we just found out that there is zero chance of any change coming to this team.  So, get on, or get off.

their waiting list is the philly white pages.  they just start with "a" and start dialing until they sell all their tickets.

I think you can nab a pink Dawkins johnson joint at 15% off.  And you say the Eagles brass has no heart.

I would ejaculate all over that discount.

You can take the name off to prepare for whatever backup RB they wind up with.

It's an emotional investment.  Not a business or capital investment.  You and I have the same emotional investment in the team, even though you spend thousands on seats, and I watch the game at a sports bar.  You have no more "right" to bitch than anyone else, no matter how much more you spend.  Your opinion is in no way more valid than anyone else's - even though you spend thousands on tickets.

I think I've said it enough different ways.

youre insane if you dont think i have more riding on the teams fortunes and how its run than you do...we arent even equal emotionally because i root for my hometown...you root for the eagles i root for philadephia...which is why i get so upset at banner representing the citys team like he does....for example you could care less about his beef with the city right now because you dont give a rats ass about philadelphia...nor should you

i dont give a shtein what anyone says its philadelphias team not jeff luries...and if you dont think that matters ask the people in cleveland if they followed the browns to baltimore before they got their own team

as for the money youre wrong there as well...spending a couple thousand dollars a year not to mention the time i put in ups the ante and causes me to hold the team to a different standard than not all but many other people that dont spend money on them...is there people that dont have season tickets that hold them to the same standard as me of course there is...but believe me you tend to look at a team in a different perspective when youre spending tons of time and money on them...

i know this because i look at the eagles in a different way than the other three teams in the city and i admittedly hold them to a slighty different standard...doesnt mean im a bigger fan of the eagles than i am the flyers sixers or phillies just as it doesnt make me a better fan of the eagles than youre...its just a different kind of fan and a different perspective
i can take a phrase thats rarely heard...flip it....now its a daily word

igy gettin it done like warrick

im the board pharmacist....always one step above yous

In that case, I will be in the next edition as Aaron 00000000001a.
