Efforts in Futility

This story got me thinking of the similiar protest staged by O's fans this past season.

What an enormous waste of time.

I guess these efforts may make the participants feel better but the bottom line is this: You put money in the owner's pocket by staging this protest. You bought a ticket. You probably paid for parking. Maybe even had a hot dog before you left. Do you think Peter Angelos even remembers this? Has anything changed? You were summarily dismissed by Mr. Angelos as not understanding his business. Pointless.

Stay away from Camden Yards. That's the best protest you can stage. Money talks and when the team's performance begins to affect the financial statements, that's when things will change.
