@NorthwestPurple @UW_Football @B1Gfootball Sunday and 1pm personally sucks a lot. Sunday at 4 or 5 I could have worked with

[Jon Merwin @jonmerwin]

@rolloqtomasi @ChristianCaple yeah because there's exactly one Sunday all season with CFB games and there are ~134 FBS teams. Totally unreasonable to expect UW's games would be on Saturday

[Jon Merwin @jonmerwin]

@KimGrinolds @UW_Football @WSUCougarFB it likely keeps me from being able to attend which sucks since I have season tickets

[Jon Merwin @jonmerwin]

@benny_bets33 @ChristianCaple I buy season tickets because I am available on Saturdays (and the occasional Friday). I'm not available on Sundays and may not have purchased season tickets had I known that was going to be a thing

[Jon Merwin @jonmerwin]

@rolloqtomasi @ChristianCaple Because I bought season tickets with the reasonable expectation that games would be on Saturdays (or an occasional Friday) like they have been for 100+ years. I work on Sunday mornings and can't go to a Sunday game

[Jon Merwin @jonmerwin]

@gkmcahill @ChristianCaple Sunday is an NFL day so when people buy tickets, they reasonably expect the game to be on a Sunday. When college fans buy tickets, they reasonably expect the game to be on Saturday. I work Sunday mornings and can't go to Sunday games, it had known, I may not have purchased

@Cougfan2383 Isn’t the supporting data the fact that they weren’t brought to any of the P4 conferences?

[Jon Merwin @jonmerwin]

@jackalspat @MarinerMuse Except Ref hasn’t been on the decline in the last couple of years. In fact he was one of the best against left-handers the last couple of seasons. He’s just not performing

[Jon Merwin @jonmerwin]

@ianmSC If people are spending like that for coffee and lunch, there’s a good chance they could save money elsewhere too.

@OsuFoolOfATook 😂😂😂😂😂

[Jon Merwin @jonmerwin]

@onwardmyhawkmen Yeah because it's super common that when people go out to eat, it is only super healthy options that they are consuming

[Jon Merwin @jonmerwin]

@LiberalRaver @Asandry4 @OldWest1453 and it totally sucks and our state is going to crap

[Jon Merwin @jonmerwin]

@LiberalRaver @Asandry4 @OldWest1453 “An example” = one example
“Of wages outpacing MCDONALD’S PRICES”

[Jon Merwin @jonmerwin]

@Asandry4 @OldWest1453 Never claimed it was universal, just an example of wages outpacing McDonald’s prices

[Jon Merwin @jonmerwin]

@Asandry4 @OldWest1453 In 1990 in Western WA I was making minimum wage of $4.25/hour and a Big Mac meal was $2.99. Today in Western WA minimum wage is $17.13/hour and a Big Mac meal is $9.69

[Jon Merwin @jonmerwin]

@MaryTracy Been married 30 years and my wife has never made my lunch and I can easily pack a lunch for less than $5

[Jon Merwin @jonmerwin]

@bitcoin__intern @GuestName10 When I was in high school, I made $4.25 an hour, and I can guarantee you that lunch at the food court was NOT $2

[Jon Merwin @jonmerwin]

@GuestName10 What do mall food court prices have to do with making your own lunch? Mall food courts have always been more expensive than "normal" prices
