  1. I didn't renew last year for all the obvious reasons and was so glad we did especially near the end of the season. They would have to get rid of Bruce first before I would even entertain being a ticket holder again.
  2. We don't have tix anymore but if we still did then yes, I would rather give them to a friend, family, or donate them before I get low balled by some buyer.
  3. You never would have gotten my tix for peanuts. I would rather eat them than give them away for next to nothing. Not worth my time for peanuts.
  4. We were there for the dinner and it was OK not great. Think they might have served steak even and it was OK. Nice that they offered this for the fan captains. Yep to 238 and probably could have kept moving toward the 50 the way the cancellations are going this year. Nice job getting to the 40 I think you posted.
  5. We've been there for dinner for the fan watch program and it was OK. You'll see the trophies, training rooms and bubble I would think.
  6. Yep, we couldn't even get $50 for our two LL seats w/green parking last year during the second half of the season for any game we couldn't make. Didn't matter the ticket face value. Was almost regretting our decision not to renew this year after the draft and the buzz of having a good defense and running game but after all the injuries since camp opened that feeling is way past and glad I'm still out especially with the kneeling going on again. NFL needs to keep politics out of the game regardless of your side.
  7. screwed on the resale when you can't make a game
  8. Not trying to pick on you but I never felt like I was migrating to MD for games since I'm coming from VA. It was definitely a long ass ride home after a loss but the trip was OK on Sunday's. Now if you gotta deal with rush hour because of MNF then yeah bring a tent.
  9. Ticket office is still probably in denial that people like me that canceled this year will come back at the last minute so I'm sure they are dragging their feet to move on from us.
  10. Good luck with that and sure hope they get that resolved properly. Sure would suck at the first home game finding someone sitting in your new seats with the same tix.
  11. We're out as season ticket holders until the product becomes better and the NFL remove politics from the game. Even spent big bucks to go through club level first for a couple of years so we could jump down into the lower level. Figured the tix would stay in the family forever but gave them up this year. The product was already bad, front office turmoil, and then the kneeling during the anthem was the final straw. Now I'm starting to receive notices from the FO that it's not too late to renew. Maybe we will once they stop the all the crap.
  12. I don't think I said it makes him a better QB because he has a contract. I said it gives him stability. Just my opinion and I'm not to get in any more back in forth trying to prove it to you either. Enjoy!
  13. I really wanted to sign Kirk a couple of years ago but we know how that all turned out. The price would have been right and he would have bonded more with his teammates. Leadership has been lacking at our QB position for a while now and it wasn't all Kirk's problem either. Management screwed that up when they did't sign him long term. Yearly contracts have no advantage in my opinion unless it is only used once in a put up or shut up one year deal type contract. Can't keep franchising the same player. Back to the point. Everyone knows Alex is the starter for 2-3 years so you have that stability now. This puts him and our WR's in a better position to succeed. The other thing I'm reading is that Alex is making it a point to move around in team meetings so he can get to know all the players. I don't think talent wise Kirk is any better than Alex so I see no reason why Alex can't put up Kirk number in this offense.
  14. I'm willing to wait a year and see what Alex Smith brings to our offense before I agree with you about our WR's potential. For some reason I'm drinking the Alex Smith kool-aid and it taste good.
  15. Fans should only stand during the big plays like 3rd and longs and goal line stands. Please sit for most everything else. Took my elderly father to a game a few years ago when we were in the 100's on the home side. By the end of the first quarter he could not stand anymore so we sat there staring at everyone's backs the rest of the game. After that year we relocated our seats to the 200's which most folks like to sit when it's not a big play.
  16. We didn't renew our two tix in 238 row 4 so those are probably mine although I just got another email that it's not too late to renew. Great seats, under cover, hardly any standing, just not a good product to own anymore IMO. I'll be able to low ball all of you now when you try to sell yours
  17. In past years all these cancellations were music to my ears since that meant we were moving closer to the 50. Not this year since we are out too. When I can't even get half price for the last two games last year and the only bites were for my parking pass I'm out. In the past we were always able to get full price when we couldn't make one.
  18. That's the difference I guess then. You feel they have 0 value and a while ago I thought they had great value hence my paying club level prices for three years just to get good seats in the lower level. I have $10K's into my 15 years of owning. Sounds like value I might want to pass on to my kids. Now given how I feel about them today I would tend to agree that their value is pretty much 0. The problem is I'm already vested so it is a tough decision because of that.
  19. Why do people always try to put words in your mouth? I never said concerned. Why would you not want to pass on something you enjoyed to your kids?
  20. We've had our tickets for 15 years, went through the club level for a couple of years to get into the lower level. Moved from the 100's back into the 200's so we could sit most of the game. Home side. So aside from being on the 50 which we we getting close to we have great seats. I even thought I would pass the tix on to my kids somehow but with all the crap going on with the team, the kneeling, and possible PSL's with new stadium it's going to be tough to renew next year.
  21. We are probably out after this year. Getting old not getting half price when we can't make one.
  22. We thought about cancelling after making our first payment and figured I would lose that payment so we're standing pat for one more year. One positive is that we might move closer to the 50 if there are a lot of non-renewals.
  23. I've never had a problem selling my tix on craigslist when I can't make the game.
  24. After every score look over your right shoulder and I think we'll be close enough to high five.
  25. Just moved from 237 to 238. From row 3 to row 4 so fully covered now but not back enough to feel caved in. I did see a few more seats in 237 too.
