Now I can understand the moral indignation if they are suing over tickets they could just sell to someone else. I'm not buying that particular potion but I can understand it.
You are correct. They are suing over club level seat, the list does not apply AND they have a hard time selling these seats (which is why they sue).

But where the "raping" comes in to play is the way they get these fans into these multi year mega buck contracts via dubious sales techniques. A lot of these fans don't know what they are getting into because the ticket office does not tell them the truth or the ticket office simply commits outright fraud (e.g. altering the contract after they sign it as in the aforementioned picture in the Wash Post).

Then suing these people after you have tricked them into these contracts is a raping.

Personally, I thing the ticket sales office is out of hand and I would prefer them to have a more transparent and fair operation. I don't dislike Dan Snyder or really have a problem with anything else he has done. Allthough, he is the top dog so he must be held responsible to some extent.
