Red Sox are done.....

[CheechB03]

Simply put, NOT TRUE!

Look back in the Clemens and Dan Duquette days frank. You could walk up and buy a ticket for face value on a day Clemens was pitching and the stadium was always half empty!

I'm not sure if it's true today. Even still that wouldn't be the case for a few years.

Here is something that i ran across that i find very very strange..

2006 Salaries
Rk Player Salary (US$)
1 Manny Ramirez $18,279,238
2 Curt Schilling $13,000,000
3 Jason Varitek $10,000,000
4 Matt Clement $9,825,000
5 Javy Lopez $9,000,000
6 Mike Lowell $9,000,000
7 Keith Foulke $7,750,000
8 Trot Nixon $7,500,000
9 David Ortiz $6,500,000
10 Josh Beckett $4,325,000

All I want to know is how in the fuck can Schilling,Varitek,Clement,Lopez,Lowell.Foulke or Nixon making more than Papi?? Hell if I were an owner of a team and he even had the slighest interest in my team and I could afford it I would throw his ass ARod type money he is just that damn good.. Clearly the most UNDERPAID player in MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL!!

TMAC, You are about 2 years behind the rest of the world figuring this out!

Also, let's not forget what portion of their revenues comes from the box office? What portion from TV?

More easily comes from their own T.V. station and the multi million dollar radio contract. With that said, they didn't add new seats everywhere to have them sit idle.

Schilling and Manny's contract are both up in the next 1-2 years. If they go with a youth movement like cleveland did, our fans will do the same thing theirs did and not show up.

Did people forget how many games in a row Jacob's field was sold out???

he just opens his stupid mouth on the most idiotic topics and does not have a sense for anything....front runner and everyone knows it

Hey numbnuts, how much are the Yankees paying Carl Pavano??? Lopez has already given us more than Pavano has given you in 2 years. Yankee fans should be the last to laugh about over paying for talent. Also, meet Kevin Brown!

How many consecutive games have the Sox sold out? I am not sure, but I think it is at least 2-3 seasons or more counting this one.
Lets say for example Sox play dismally for the rest for the story and do not make the playoffs and then next year start off poorly(obviously this is a very extreme and hypothetical assumption).
I think under this scenario the ballpark would still be sold out throughout the 2007 season(I am not saying everyone would show up), and that the very earliest you would see any effect at all at the box office would be in 2008;I think in short there is a big lead lag time gap when it comes to the Red Sox.
Hopefully, Sox will somehow snap out of it, and we will never have to see what would happen under the circumstances I described.
