An Open Letter to Robert Kraft

[nhpatsfan]

Why can't the good, honest, life long Patriot fans get tickets for the Super Bowl?

Because they are limited in number, and it's a free market.

and this SB will be worse then ever....

prob break records for least amount of fans from a playing team....i mean...who wouldnt want to see a team have the chance to go 19-0?

If you want superbowl tickets better hope that we and the Giants both make it, then you can buy tickets off Giants fans.

"Boo Hoo, Mr. Kraft. I've loved you unconditionally all these years and now I'm entitled to your MONEY!"

Sheesh, you sound like an ex-wife. Good, honest, life long Patriot fans DO get tickets for the Super Bowl...by BUYING them like everyone else.

????? Did somebody say they wanted tickets given to them? I've spent more money on Patriot tickets/gear etc. in my life that I don't need a speech from you about Mr. Kraft's money. Much of his money is OUR money before it becomes his money.

Yes, you're saying that you want something GIVEN to you. You want something at X dollar value given to you for 1/20th X dollar value, hence a "gift" of 19/20ths of that overall amount. You obviously DO need a speech from someone to understand what you're asking.

So what? You bought merchandise from the Patriots. That and a quarter will get you a cup of coffee (at least where I work). It entitles you to enjoy the merchandise and the merchandise alone. It is not a promissory note for further goods or services from the Patriots or Kraft Enterprises. Once you GIVE Kraft YOUR money, it then becomes HIS money. That's called FREE enterprise. If it bothers you so much, don't give it to him. He'll live on somehow without it...

I myself would love it if tix were a lot less, but that's the price we pay for rooting for a juggernaut like this. I accept it. If I absolutely need to go to a game, I'll pay.

I don't usally go back and forth with posts like yours, because it's a waste of everybody elses time. But, I still don't get how you think I'm asking the Krafts for tickets at a discount, or am trying to take money from the Krafts. Explain if you would please. And try and keep it somewhat civil.

Where have I not been civil? I didn't say you were TAKING money from anyone. I said you sounded like you were entitled to something, based upon prior actions, that clearly you're not.

I think I expounded upon this clearly in the previous post.
