Oh my God, good thing whoever didn't come up with a similar slogan for the late Mt. Ida College....I'm sure most of you folks know what I mean.

Unbelievable. I hope they did not pay too much for that consultant!

Lots of understandable mocking but for any locals, what is the actual meaning that they were trying to convey? Do the Bravehearts have a version of the wave and they call it . . . . .  |

When the Bravehearts score the bullpen all clap in unison as seen on the billboard. Must be some other way to word it!

The Bravehearts are a great family entertainment value, a great resource for college players and play in a great privately owned non-subsidized stadium.
But doesn't it feel like they are the Titanic and the iceberg (WooSox in a $100 million dollar publicly financed stadium) is bearing down on them?

But doesn't it feel like they are the Titanic and the iceberg (WooSox in a $100 million dollar publicly financed stadium) is bearing down on them? Might not be that bad for the Bravehearts. Like Cape Cod, the players are all college kids so they don't get paid. I assume they got their hands on the bankrupt Tornadoes asset of free use of the field for 25 years. Expenses are low. You don't need a ton of income to break even. Towards the Woo Sox, one of the advantages to the move to Worcester is a lack of built in expectations. I can go down to Pawtucket and get a $10 ticket. I can't believe if the new stadium were built there, that price would stay. People used to paying $10 might balk at $30, even though it's much less than Fenway. The $30 in Worcester doesn't seem as bad since there's nothing to compare it to. The HC92's of the world might not get away with taking a whole crew to a Woo Sox game for under $100, but could still pull it off for the Bravehearts. That market will still exist |

Interesting about the asset of 25 years free use of the ballpark. I'm surprised Jose Canseco didn't get that in his contract to play for the Tornadoes. They basically gave him their last nickel and he came up lame.
