    And we get stuck paying for it

    The average salary has rose 9% over the last two season.

    Normally I wouldn't mind paying an extra dollar or two for teams that go the extra mile paying the players a bit more than there worth. However, what I really don't like is the fact that these teams are grossly over paying for not on the starts but the scrub players as well. How can these teams justify raising ticket prices when you over spend to sign a shitty player, and try and brainwash the fans in saying that player will take them to the playoffs

    People think that a movie at $10 is outrageous and complain about the high price of popcorn ... It's a bargain compared to what sporting events are ... A box seat at a Red Sox game this year is $107 and the other seats are sky high ... Beer and concessions is obscene ... It costs $40 to park your car at a Patriots game ... hahahaha ... If your local supermarket charged you 10 cents to park, you'd never go back there again ... Sport fans can't give them enough.

    Bottom line is these prices have escalated with the players salaries ... Out of control.

    If you keep paying it, they'll keep charging it. You know it and they know it.
