Things are looking dismal for the Diamondbacks. If things don't start to improve, the rich snobs who previously jumped off the Suns bandwagon in lieu of D-backs season tickets will desperately be seeking a new social event.
No loss in my book. There's nothing worse than going to watch a game and cheering on your team, only to be "shushed" by some arrogant bastard on his cell phone. Such was the case with the Suns before their decline. I hated going to basketball games because the socialites ruined the whole sports experience for me. Then when the Diamondbacks won the World Series, suddenly all the rich people were baseball fans.
Phoenix is such a fickle sports town. People flock to watch the team when they're winning, then disappear into the night when things don't go well.
If Dennis Green and the Cardinals can actually put a winning product on the field this season, people might actually start to fill the stadium. After all, what else is left? The Suns, Coyotes and now the Diamondbacks have joined the Cardinals as an embarrassment to the wannabe sports fans.
One thing is certain--the first rich guy on a cell phone who tries to silence me at a football game will regret it.
