I doubt it's going to happen, especially on the short notice. Among other things, everything gets charged to one person, so if, for example, that was me, I would insist not only on getting paid immediately, ie today, I would also want an upfront cushion over and above the price to reflect expected alcohol consumption. And the alcohol cost would likely have to be split evenly because we wouldn't get an itemized bill that says this person ordered x, and person 2 ordered y, etc.

Still think it would be a great idea to have a forums suite.... If this does get any traction, I would be in.

Same here. Count me in if we can get it going.

 

[Gotham Gator]

I may participate, depending on cost, etc.

Okay, back to the game itself.

Piatti is their best player, and he's on good form. Do we do anything to slow him down? Are we okay with Pirlo in back alongside whichever of Ring and Maxi has stayed back (or not stayed back)? Maybe this is another game with White at FB for just that reason.

Also, where are The Views From 226?

Intrigued, at the least. Obviously depending on cost.

The email said 16 people. That's $225 per person. I presume food and drink is extra. I've sent an inquiry.

I'm in if we do it.

Two points...
- Fuck us, it's Geiger...
- It would be sexist not to get in the ear of Kathryn Nesbitt as I do for all other sideline refs, right? All refs are equal in their heckling from fans.

New York City v Montreal Impact
Yankee Stadium (2:00pm ET)
REF: MARK GEIGER
AR1: Kathryn Nesbitt
AR2: Kevin Klinger

How do you know Ian isn't calling it?

Back to the sun of LA and a busy weekend on Fox Soccer.

- We don't play in LA
- Our match isn't on Fox Soccer

If you didn't heckle her it would be positive discrimination based on her sex. You're still engaged in discrimination so by the book it is a form of sexism.

Also god damnit we got Geigered, ugh. I'll be happy for a draw and none of the players hurt. I was expecting a win.

If all inclusive this could really make sense, especially for this game due to the weather (sorry adam). If it is all-inclusive their web copy needs to be better. My rule is that if the copy does not explicitly say something is free or included in the price, then it's extra. Here is what it says about the subject:
"Yankee Stadium Luxury Suites also feature the personal service and variety of food and beverage selections consistent with the Yankees standard of excellence."
Also:

• Dedicated in-suite server
• Diverse menu of premium food and beverages

The bathroom, TVs etc are mentioned also. But it doesn't say the food is included. If it is, it should say so because that's how marketing usually works. I'll get back as soon as I hear. I wonder if we can put a group together quickly.

Perhaps the bathrooms aren't free either. should we bring quarters? or do you think it would take dollars?

Hey Rodney Wallace, you read this? Calm down. Alex Ring, you too.

Ah I read it as champions league or Europa league not Bundesliga. So I figured he'd just fly back this weekend as usual.

So, I should heckler her?

Looks like I won the sweepstakes to watch the game with the team President.

9. NYCFC have scored four goals in three consecutive home MLS regular season games.

Chicago 4-1, Columbus 4-1, DC, 4-0

Yankee Stadium is becoming a fortress...

You realize the responsibility that comes with that, right? Lots of questions.

Ask him to wink if Tony Avella is about to do us a favor in Willet's Point.

Perfect, we've got our Forums suite! Have you told him yet that you are bringing 14 friends?!?

I'd prefer if you didn't heckle refs at all.
