It is stupefying to me that team owners can get these kinds of deals at all, but that one takes the cake. Maybe the city government will also offer to buy up all of the unsold tickets so that the team can boast of "consecutive sold out games" that no one bothers to attend.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."
