Any EXPRESSFANS going to any games? Only 10 home games in a 20 game season. I wont buy season tix but i will get the single ones cause i probably cant make all of them especially as the Express season overlaps.
I did make a fansite for the Railersfans and am trying to get ahold of owner Kay McGee to make her aware of it.www.railersfans.comwww.railersfans.com/forum

Wow, that's gotta be the shortest regular season I've ever seen for basketball, at any level.

I think I have to pass. B-Ball is 4th on my sports list. I wish them the best and hope it catches on though.

1. Football
2. Basketball & Hockey. Its a tie cause the seasons are too long.
3. Baseball. I cant last past the 6th inning.
That said, i have only been too 1 Royals game in the past 2 seasons after having season tix for the team the 1st 2 seasons. I just lost interest due to the callups and the nets behind the goals. I only sit in the attackzone and after the nets went up i was done. With the R-Phils i have only ever been to 3 games. Baseball is more enjoyable to me on tv or the radio as background. What i do like about the Express and the Railers are the shorter seasons. Not too sure if basketball will take off in this town but we'll find out shortly.... |

Basketball isn't my cup of tea. I'd rather see Michael Bolton in concert. And that's saying alot.

While alot of our fans are also Royals fans there are many many Royals fans who hate the Express for the same reason. As much as i have tried to get some of those haters out to a game they didnt go. I did get a few though and they have gone to a few more after & enjoyed it.  |

Still, it's basketball. I can think of a lot of better things to spend my money on. It's great for the people that are a fan of the sport though. I'm just glad that the city can provide something for everyone.
Now if they start a Curling league, I am there.

I may catch a game when they do the double-header games with hockey.

I don't think there are, you think those two would be easier to have back-to-back.

My top preference used to be baseball. After College, and before I had a real life, I attended a bunch of R-Phils games. One season I even attended 71 games (of a 140 game season (60 in Reading, all 10 in Harrisburg (my wife, then girlfriend was living near there that year) and 1 in Baltimore (Municipal Stadium, Bowie Baysox, before their stadium was finished)))
Since then it's switched more to football, with Hockey & Baseball being tied for second, and Basketball being a distant third.
That being said, I've only attended a few Royals games myself (I think I'd be more inclined if they were Flyers affiliates)
