Who will ask for a refund plus damages for MLB sucker punch?

(NY Post): "...So you spent $300 on tickets to Sunday's Dodgers-Mets.
  • So you were going to bring your father and your son, make a three-generation day of it.

And so, at the last minute, MLB switched the game from a 1:10 p.m. start to 8:05 p.m. on behalf of its ESPN deal.

  • And so now your kid, with school the next day, and you, with work the next day, and your dad, who has difficulty staying awake past 11 p.m.,

not only can't go,

  • but getting rid of tickets, last minute, to a Sunday night game is a problem.

So what? Tough noogies. If you don't like it, lump it.

  • since Bud Selig was named commissioner."
From NY Post column by Phil Mushnick, "When to Take Out the Trash," 5/30/08 (end of column)
  • (These are just the facts. Today's "landscape" certainly eschews such things). sm
