Well this should make you happy…

The most drastic example is in Los Angeles, where the average price for the Dodgers’ home playoff games in the first round are selling for $74, about half the $149 they fetched last year, according to market leader StubHub, a unit of eBay Inc. In fact, fans can even buy playoff tickets there for as low as $13.

Holliday next year

Where’s he going to be. If I had to handicap it I’d go:

1. New York Mets
2. Chicago Cubs
3. New York Yankees
4. Boston
5. St. Louis

15. San Fran (although we should make a much stronger push)

The point is, they’re going to need to spend to be competitive next year. They don’t have any hot up-and-coming prospects in their farm system, they’re not going to move the few, overpaid stars they have and the rest of their lineup doesn’t have much trade value. They need at least another OF (Bay? Holliday?) and a premier starter (Penny?). I don’t know how grave the Wilpons’ financial situation is, but there are other Mets financiers who’ll keep the cash flowing.

Dude my family had season tix back in the day when the L-Train, Lionel Simmons was the best player on the Kings and they set the record for longest road losing streak. They were an embarrassment but I stuck with them. Then Mich Richmond happened and they broke my heart. Then Chris Webber and Vlade and Mike Bibby (Team Dime/puke) and it was really fun and they broke my heart. But I just can’t go back to where we started. I can’t live through all those years of pain again.

Kings need to trade Tyreke Evans to the Warriors so SJax can have a wheel man when he’s busting caps outside of strip clubs.
