Drew Posted October 12, 2006 Share Posted October 12, 2006 They probably will like it, because the current start time was 7:07. That means four minutes' more worth of ad space to sell before first pitch, or four more minutes ESPN can use to fellate the Yankees.

NorthSideSox72 Posted October 12, 2006 Share Posted October 12, 2006 500k is not exactly a "drop in the bucket", even for the White Sox. Half a percent of payroll for 3 years is a worth a lot more to any business than "spitting in Lake Michigan". Its a significant marketing deal. Think about it as a business decision... someone will pay you .5% of your firm's payroll in exchange for something that has essentially zero downside or negative impact. No extra work to be done, no change to your revenue streams, no differential cost. Why would you not do that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
