That's embarrassing. I agree with the owner. I hate an owner who consistently builds a loser than complains about attendance. But in this case, **** them. You think Cleveland wouldn't kill to have an owner with this kind of a success record? That depressed economy would be killing attendance numbers with a team as talented as the Rays.

Is there a major American city with a worse economy than Detroit? Nevertheless, those fans have no problem supporting that team.

Whereas the fans of KC don't deserve a team as shitty as the Chiefs, the fans of Tampa don't deserve a team as good as the Rays.
