How many games are the Wizards playing at home this season? 15. How many home playoff games can the Wizards have? 2 max. That leaves one extra ticket.<BR/><BR/>That extra ticket is either for 2 things, 1 to make the price hike look smaller, or 2 there's some kind of game in the plans. Since we're in a baseball stadium and unlikely to get any good type of friendly, my guess is on the first one.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5842845341376762195.post-52870162962092457152007-12-14T09:34:00.000-06:002007-12-14T09:34:00.000-06:00The so called "price hike" is just over $1.60 per ...The so called "price hike" is just over $1.60 per ticket.<BR/><BR/>and btw - everything we pay that the Wizards make in a profit, could technically be said to go toward a new stadium.<BR/><BR/>That said, I'd not be surprised if the Wizards are losing money on our section.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5842845341376762195.post-49883455875208135272007-12-13T04:16:00.000-06:002007-12-13T04:16:00.000-06:00This is not about how positive someone is in a pos...This is not about how positive someone is in a post. <BR/><BR/>I'm not debating the points made, just pointing out that this method of delivery achieves zero results unless you're outing secrets or are in some sort of danger if your name is exposed. <BR/><BR/>Do you want results, or do you just want to hear yourself talk?<BR/><BR/>Maybe the price could actually be affected if you chose to put your real name behind a complaint and directed it to the people that have say over such things?<BR/><BR/>Wizards fans that frequent online forums, and especially Cauldron members, enjoy whining about perceived injustices more than being a supporter of their team - we're talking inane, stupid stuff, like - Who gets the credit when people show up to games and stand with the Cauldron?<BR/><BR/>The anonymous complaints that were so numerous that we need a whole website devoted to them is just another sad example of how much better the Cauldron could be if it actually had central members that spent less time complaining and more time actually doing things to achieve tangible results for the group.<BR/><BR/>Despite having one of the most fan-friendly front offices ever conceived in American sports, I wouldn't be surprised if this complaint website sees more Cauldron traffic than the Cauldron's own official site.<BR/><BR/>-Jeffszazzyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18134702628049368244noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5842845341376762195.post-17307936358303007032007-12-10T20:14:00.000-06:002007-12-10T20:14:00.000-06:00Jeff, I've seen you make comments like this on big...Jeff, I've seen you make comments like this on bigsoccer about Baine's blog. Baine is just like anyone on bigsoccer, he's just doing it in blog form. What more is an internet forum then a place for blind bashing of players/team officials/etc? Maybe (s)he's seen how people attack other people when they have opinions different then the norm. There's no problem with that.<BR/><BR/>People don't have to be known to make their opinions. For instance I'm choosing to remain anonymous with this comment, cause I feel like it.<BR/><BR/>And overall I felt this entry by Baines Qi is fairly positive. (S)he states how they've come to the understanding of why the Cauldron price is what it is. He's not pissed at the price we have to pay, he understands it's part of business. As he said in the end, the raised price is a much lower price then not having a team at all.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5842845341376762195.post-60629530720513178672007-12-10T09:35:00.000-06:002007-12-10T09:35:00.000-06:00Wouldn't this complaint have been better directed ...Wouldn't this complaint have been better directed to the front office personnel directly instead of this anonymous smear tactics crap?<BR/><BR/>What change could you possibly expect going through this route?<BR/><BR/>Congrats, whatever point you might have had is now overshadowed by the fact that you're too much of a coward to put your name behind a complaint.<BR/><BR/>Jeff Szajnuk<BR/>- szazzyszazzyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18134702628049368244noreply@blogger.com
