It's odd how kstatesports brags about its sales. If a car salesman was earhole'n customers about how many cars he'd unloaded on rubes, it'd be really weird, no?

They shouldn't brag? They shouldn't say they set a record? You want them to have a crappy marketing staff?

You have a crappy (

) marketing staff, and I don't like it.

so we're comparing a reversible jersey with a poster

Wasn't a comparison. They do first day prizes in football, wbb and baseball as well. It's not a new thing they wheeled out this year just because mbb missed postseason.

It is a new thing. A give-away is different than a randomly awarded prize. I think you know that.

Would it be "praise" to the AD to say that this is the best give away they have ever had, or would it be shaming?

My guess is that CC is concerned that they are being shamed, when he should just be proud of it. Maybe I am wrong.

The 2006 promotion was the best one.

If CC is answering questions, why did the marketing group purposely leave Weber completely out of the 12-page mailer?

I watched all of the games back when we had Wooly and asbury, and listened to games on the radio when they weren't on tv. So, last year really wasn't that bad. I'll watch all the games again this year.

Basically, I'm a great fan

Well, CC previously cited American car companies and their advertising "best selling," so I think that he'd say that their failure to mention oscar is akin to American car companies not mentioning inferior products and recalls in their commercials.

That's just good business. Go cats.

I dont think its either. Its their job to sell tickets, and based on ticket sales across sports the last few years, they do pretty good.

You guys have a clear position that weber sucks and currie sucks, and no one should buy tickets or go to games until bw is fired. Thats ok.

You guys also distort facts or ignore them in order to support your position. For example, the gveaway item. I dont think thats ok. So i will point them out when i see them.

They do both, every year, across sports.

I don't think any of the players have in game experience so action shots would be hard

Great. Do you have examples of some that are comparable to giving away hundreds of free jerseys?

Pete · « **Reply #92 on:** June 13, 2015, 02:11:20 PM »

I think we can all agree that free jerseys, while completely unprecedented, are a good thing for fans who will likely enjoy far fewer traditional rewards by attending games this season than what they have enjoyed in the past (save for last year, of course).

You're the cynical loser of the family that doesnt get invited to weddings and stuff, and who everyone laughs at. "Mom! Lasagna!"

You seem like you are bent out of shape about people being bent out of shape about free jerseys. That is a weird thing to get bent out of shape about. Though, I am not going to call you a baby, FSD. Go cats!

There was a full page devoted to them with their names and pictures. The face of the program, no mention.

I've renewed my season tickets and made a request for an extra one for a buddy. He thinks we will be awful next year, but is willing to attend some when possible. Even though I am no longer a Weber fan, I do like having tickets to Cat games.
