Ticket Price Increase

Have you seen the estimates of what it’s going to cost to buy the Seattle Seahawks?

No. I'm sure it's over 5 billion or something ridiculous.

Look I apologize if I got too antagonistic. You are entitled to your opinion but I just don’t understand not at least waiting to see what happens. It would be different if nothing changed but a lot has. I think he did this simply because he didn’t live any of the young choices or at least didn’t think they were ready. Hiring McCarthy is relatively safe as you say but it is also smart if you didn’t like the options available as it lets you wait a few years and find someone who you really like when Mike is ready to retire and hopefully has a QB in place. It wasn’t sexy but it may have been the right choice for the short term.

Absolutely no reason for you to apologize.
Steeler faithful are probably the most passionate of fans of any sport and I respect that and you.
Seriously, it’s cool that you have the optimism that you do for the Steelers, it really is and I hope they don’t disappoint you.
I think with me I’ve let myself buy in every year and then I get disappointed in the end and I’m just afraid of doing that for the umpteenth time.
You have to understand that I’m not rooting against them, I’d never do that, I’m just not feeling optimistic right now.
Maybe after the FA period and draft I’ll feel better about it all. We’ll see!

I think I read around 10.. a lot of coin.

Say what you will about Uncle Rico but he could throw that pigskin a quarter mile.

They used to raise the ticket prices every two years, no clue now since everything is online and they don't send out much communication in the mail anymore. The price hikes have been pretty steep, too.

There is a nice perk with playoff tickets if you enter the pay-as-they-play program. Last year's playoff tickets were cheaper than the B-tier (AFCN) games, which is remarkable.

I was surprised at the price of the playoff tickets last year comparatively speaking.

Mine were not bad. all things considered.

Except for that nearly guaranteed outcome, yeah.
