No, I meant football. Elites watch baseball. It's like in Europe, where the rabble watches soccer.
:lol: There's no correlation in the US between class and sports preference.  As far as baseball goes, Fenway park during a Red Sox game is loaded with more lowlife drunks than you can possibly imagine.

So that's why all the new stadiums have lots and lots of VIP boxes for corporate customers and the like.

Certainly not worse than Citizens Banks Park. :P

Tickets to a baseball game are the cheapest of the 4 major American professional sports.

Considering they have 162 games (and plenty on weekday mornings/afternoons) it's not that surprising.
Only one game in the entire league is played in the morning, and they only start it early so that spectators can catch the end of the Boston Marathon after the game.
It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

He clearly doesn't watch sports movies.

It is as accurate as any of his legal or moral analyses.  :cool:
