I've got two awesome seats. They're $155.00 face. I'm looking to get $250 for the pair. They're in Row 14 on the 33 yard line. PM me if you're interested.

good luck with moving pre seasons

Give them to a valued employee. Pre season is the super bowl for mail room clerks

I have already moved most of the regular season for almost 2.5x face. There is no way I'm going to a weeknight game in December, let alone twice.

I am just amazed he hasn't given them to a cop as a favor.

I can't believe all of the cops in the city haven't contacted him demanding them!

We like to gamble and go game to game. I just flipped the first regular game for $600. The weather should be nice tomorrow and you'll get to see the starters for a good chunk of the game. I think I'll be able to move them. This is nearly as good a seat as there is in the place.

Obviously that's what I'm fighting against. The lack of football fans is causing me to sell them for less than face. People prefer to watch TV.

Didn't you just say someone was willing to pay 4x face value for the first real game?

Looks like Baby McCown isn't the only one I delivered a knockout punch to this week!

That's almost two times face value. Not $600 each. I would expect demand to be greater for such a popular sport though. Wouldn't you?

I doubt you sold many White Sox tickets for two times face value this year.

I'd rather pay $250 to watch it on JORR's couch than pay that to see a preseason football game.

Except maybe the last preseason game - Fales is going to get some serious PT in that one.

They will not play Fales in the 4th game as they want to stash him on the practice squad.

Why is pre season football so terrible even to the most ardent fans?


Is it the lack of gambling and fantasy impact?


I know I can be entertained by baseball at almost any skill level. Why not football? Even the guys playing in pre season are still at a higher level of skill than college right?

No stakes.

Guys don't care if they win or lose. They just want jobs.

But spring training games and NBA preseason games dont seem nearly as terrible

The Park District is giving these tickets away. My brother works for the Park District and he offered me 4 tickets for me and my kids.

The odds of injury in baseball and basketball is so much lower that you get the actual players who matter a lot more.

Also, the NFL preseason is the equivalent of 1/4th of the whole season. My guess is that if there were 2 preseason games they would be much more interesting.

Low quality commercials too many experimental camera angles.

The Park District may be giving tickets away- in a corner and/or endzone. They aren't giving these tickets away. I'll sell these tickets to one of the few real football fans out there. But it's a big TV night since the game is being broadcast.

Oh, you're crazy. They're way worse.

I'll watch pretty much every minute of each Bears preseason game.

I'll watch a collective 15 minutes of Cubs/Bulls spring training/exhibition.

Vegan and Rick, I also think the time slot matters.

Ill bet if the preseason was played on sunday like regular weeks they'd get a lot better ratings

No way.

Spring training can be all kinds of entertaining. But Im a big baseball guy. And Ill bet NBA preseason/summer league is interesting to the Favre Fans of the world.

You are the exception though. Even guys who I consider obsessed with football dont really watch entire pre season games.

Im saying...its still football...it should be entertaining if you love the game of football. Like John Madden.
