I think it has gotten to the point where the Flyers have crossed the line of good taste.

All season when you logon to the official Flyers web site, there is a placeholder page prompting you to purchase tickets and ticket packages before you can actually get onto the site.

Then the Flyers introduced a video player on its homepage earlier this season but recently the videos contain advertisements for again, purchasing tickets. And we’re not even talking about the TV broadcasts … ad after ad about Flyers tickets.

Pimp-o-Rama.

Snider should be sporting a bright orange brimmed hat and a feather boa.

No other team’s web site in the league employs such shameless plugging.

Memo to Flyers: Season ticket holders who have already paid for their seats are not coming to the games. They are eating the tickets. Your team is that bad that folks would rather lose money than pay an extra $10 for parking. No one wants to buy more tickets. Your product stinks and your approach to loyal fans stinks even more.

BTW, No one wants a T-shirt.
