I think he’s onto something for high net worth people who want to take fan experience to another level

 

 this can be scalable for other NFL fan bases

I knew Zack in college. He was a great guy and I’m glad to see him doing well.

Seems to go against what the RR truly stands for, but okay.

I thought similar but it's away games. If they were watering down the home games then I would agree.

Demographics aside, why would you pay $10k to go to an away game if you're not even going to home games? That's doesn't make any sense.

if you have the money, it doesn't have to make sense. you just do it so you can say you had enough money to do it and keep yourself elevated above the normal riff-raff.

It's been strange watching the NFL try and turn itself into a "luxury experience"

The prices to attend a game these days certainly matches that of a luxury experience, at least.

Yeah, this isn't for 'fans'.  I worked with a rep from Coca Cola who's job was to wine and dine customers, taking them on trips fishing trips in Alaska and the Carribbean or pretty much any sporting event they dreamed of attending, no questions asked.  $180K is nothing to Corporate America when it comes to keeping their clients happy.

This isn’t a bad deal for the right people. Sure not everyone has that kind of money to burn. But $10k for everything including all travel (that includes a private flight), lodging, meals, tix to the game? Meeting former players?

It’s a lot of logistics that if done solo would take a lot of time to coordinate. When I was younger I spent my time to save money, and now I spend my money to save time.

Yep not everyone has that kind of money to burn but there’s definitely a healthy market that does and when you break it all done it’s not a bad deal at all

Displays of luxury spending like this are the only thing that will wake up the poor peasants currently shouting at each other. At least, that's my only way to optimistically look at this trash.

Corporate spending is the absolute worst. Now if you're just a regular person near the bottom of the totem pole you'll have every dime scrutinized painstakingly. But the folks in the C suite? Yeah, they can spend like drunken sailors on shore leave on the dumbest, most wasteful poo imaginable. Basically stuff like this.

I mean, at the end of the day we're just animals. The peacock struts around showing off his beautiful tail feathers to get laid and we work ourselves to death to get money to piss it away on dumb stuff to impress people so that hopefully we can get laid. Just because we're the smartest animals on this rock doesn't really mean anything, at the end of the day we're still just dumbass animals doing the same thing all the other dumbass animals do.

      It is time to Consider the Likelihood of WR at #19

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Nobody is saying we don't need it, just that we have bigger needs elsewhere, and that type of WR is actually something that is often found in the mid rounds, you just have to scout and evaluate properly. Here's another way of looking at why WR in the 1st shouldn't even be considered an option. Looking only at players currently on the team, what position group would you feel strongest about 4 years from now? I'm not sure there is a better answer there than WR, as you have to think T-Mac is our best player on the team in 4 years (Brown is the only current player I think there is even an argument to be made over T-Mac there), with Coker not far behind. Our OL is too old to be considered, my opinions on Bryce is well known, Hubbard will be done by then and the rest of the RB is an unknown, Off-ball LB is maybe our biggest need, we only have 1 legit safety, it's certainly not TE, and our 2nd best CB right now will be 33 by then.   Brown should still be a beast as he'll only be 31, but nobody else on the DL projects to be that good in 4 years.  Edge rusher with Phillips, Scourton, and Princely is probably the only other possible answer than WR. So yes, that fast/shifty type of WR is 100% a need of ours, but we have so many other bigger needs both in the immediate and future, that to me, taking a WR in the 1st for the 3rd year in a row and having hit on another WR in the same time frame, just makes zero sense both currently and looking into the future.

      Draft intel from ESPN’s Jordan Reid

      By TD alt · Posted

      Laughing at Slayton (Mooney or Calvin Austin III), but telling me that Coker is the next best thing since sliced bread...You laughing at Theo Johnson in reference to our guys too? LOL No one in their right mind thinks Nabers is anything but a stud (definitely top 10 if not 5 potential). You do realize that Thomas was in a new system with a furst-time coach last year (with a questionable QB to boot)? And yet still, it's possible that he eclipses even T-mac (not saying that he will). They didn't even mention Travis Hunter. In any event, we're not in the top half. Draft another legit receiver, and we will be.

      Absolutely, very fair assessment of the team.
