Re: [memphis-redbirds] An awful start in Memphis

Wow J.D.!!! That sucks!!!
I haven't been to a Redbird game in a few
years now and it sounds like I'm not missing
out on much. I've gotten reports similar
to your story & I just don't get it???
Once upon a time, Minor League baseball did
nothing but cater to the fans at it's games
and now it sound like they are as interested
in us as the big league teams are.
As long as the corporate dollar is coming in
all is well I guess.

I never did understand the Spivey signing???
Over rated. Good thing Aaron Miles is now proving how
under rated he was!

Stubby was awesome! Since him, I did get Bo Hart
to sign three things for me(at once!) And I couldn't
go without mentioning Danny Abbott, who hooked me
up with some tickets and a great bunch of bobble
heads. So there are some diamonds in the rough.

Why those guys won't sign is a real mystery. When you
boys get to the big leagues you can act like big
leaguers.

Too bad it seems things have turned for the worse.
On the bright side, you CAN get tickets. Up here in
St.Louis they are really hard to come by. Unless you
have the $$$$'s

It's still early in the season.
Hang in there man!
