That's why the Bucs went from 16 losing seasons in 19 years to 5 playoff appearances and a SB title in 10 years. And from dead last in merchandise seales to perninal top 10. Hmmmmmmmmmmm.

As far as raising prices. Well let's see you couldn't GIVE Bucs ticket away before Glazer now the waiting list is 110K long. They says expect to wait at least 8-12 years maybe more if you got on the list today.

Before you FEAR what he MIGHT do why not see what he has actually done. Also if these Irish guys bought Glazer's share would you guys be having fits now? Ummmmm no. So what does that say. Oh it because he's an AMERICAN.

I'm pefectly happy with him as the Bucs owner and if you don't want him then that's your problem. Thing is he already owned nearly 1/3 of the team as is so he already was having an inlfuence on your team don't you think?

Also as far as him not following socccer. How do you know this? let me clue you in to a couple of things. A good deal of owners of American sports teams don't even follw that sport and I would bet $10K that Glazer probally knows more about soccer than he does American football. That's why smart owners hire GMs to run things.
