Statement for immediate release:

As a team owner, quasi charter member, fan and believer in all things good and fair i would like to applaud the players union for their united message in boycotting the All Star game to bring awareness to the long mistreatment of NDLOOTP legend Kevin Thomas.

To the fans:

We realize the inconvenience, shock and outrage this boycott may have caused but we ask for your solidarity and continued support as we attempt to fix the wrongs of NDL yesteryear.

To the owners:

The time is now! We have formed a special committee formed by yours truly, and co led by former owner Dr Tom, to bring justice to the good name of Kevin Thomas. We are announcing today that we will formally be initiating a winter meeting to reintroduce Kevin Thomas to the hall of fame ballots.

We thank you again for your continued support and ask that you find it in your hearts to consider this request regardless of previous beliefs. As the ancient philosopher Balboa once said “If you can change and I can change, everybody can change.”

Please accept this fruit basket as our sign of love and respect.

-Spitters Executive team

Here's another WTF.

Washington has 100 fan interest, a 61-33 record, and 6 nationally extremely popular players. Their attendance is currently 20th in the league...(pay no attention to the fact he's #1 in gate revenue :lol: )

Assuming his ticket prices must be sky high.

Also kind of odd that we can't see ticket prices for other teams. It's not like that's confidential information in the real world.

I tried to calculate it out. Came out to $19.93, but I don't know if the gate revenue numbers are before or after paying the visiting team.

You have to take out season ticket holders as well.

No. Those are two separate revenue lines.

I'd estimate his ticket prices are around $35. Too high but if it works it works.
