Amazed to read Mac's column in the Startlegram today saying the not full stadium at the game yesterday shows the Rangers should be moved to downtown Dallas. Here's his conclusion:
Maybe it is the heat. Or maybe it’s the electronic age where watching a game at home is not only cheaper, but with HDTV often just as good. Or maybe the thing just needs to be in downtown Dallas.
He ignores the fact that the game was a sellout (that means all seats sold), that the game began at noon on a working day when lots of ticket holders just couldn't get off work. He could, of course, because he's a sports writer. Strange for a Startlegram writer to push this kind of agenda in front of the Arlington vote a month from now on whether to approve the new Ranger building program.
