I would pay more just to be able to read it. The font is too small and not bold enough to see.

Vince is probably, from a historical perspective, the OHIO NFL player who made the most impact. I've called this omission to their attention.

Were I such an advertiser and was shown such a mockup, I immediately would have insisted on a lower rate. And then there was the new pre-game traffic arrangements. I chatted with 2 or 3 of the police officers and asked if any arrivals were confused. "Lots of them," they said ruefully. They the added, "We know there are some hiccups that need fixed." One such hiccup: Metal fencing bordered the intersection of Richland and South Green Drive. That intersection was staffed and, of course, there are Walk/Don't Walk signals. To cross, I had to walk back to Peden, cross there and walk back to Richland. I mentioned this to the police and later to Jim Schaus who immediately said, "We should make sure there is a small gate so pedestrians can cross there." It will be interesting to see what changes are made. The new arrangement does speed exiting from the Peden lot onto Richland and then to the traffic circle. http://www.facebook.com/mikejohnson.author Back to Top JLO General User Member Since: 9/4/2016 Post Count: 9 Status: Offline     RE: I hate the new programs!    Posted: 9/5/2016 9:13:10 PM  Mike Johnson wrote: I wonder if anyone in Athletics showed a mockup of the shrunken version to advertisers, in particular ones that have advertised in the past.

Never made a comment on this forum but I have to now. The programs are unreadable period. I couldn't read it after I got home let alone at the game. I can tolerate that however. What is hard to tolerate is the horrible sound system and the malfunctioning of the referee's microphone. I can't tell you how many times those around me asked "what happened?".

You could spend an hour counting the typos, misspellings and grammatical errors. Much more interesting than the product on the field in those days.

Maybe they can adjust the print some.
