Friday, December 12, 2008Like the Great Depression, but differentThe economic downturn hits the bush leagues:At the minor league job fair and trade show, the topic on many minds was the floundering economy, which was expected to have a far more pronounced effect on baseball’s lower levels than on the major leagues. Many minor league teams are searching for creative ways to save money but keep fans heading out to ballparks, and job seekers are finding few openings. Some of the cost-saving measures will affect fans, and others will reach the field . . . I suppose things are tough all over, but it's hard for me to get worked up about fewer rented inflatable things and repeats on the cap shuffle. Posted by Craig Calcaterra at 5:33am Comments

If you go to the same minor league park enough, it does drive you batty to see the same 1 of the same 3 video clips every single time*, but an easier way to save the money might be just not playing loud/distracting things on the video board between half innings.
