  1. When there are two bandwagons rolling through town, the leeches will still jump on the ivy-covered one. For WGN to report USCF as half-empty is ridiculous, shoddy "journalism".
  2. The few bad apples are the entire reason for the policy change in the first place! Unfortunately, that's how things are these days....oh well...
  3. What the Cubs do doesn't bother me at all. I just ignore the Cub dolts, and I can have good baseball conversations with my intelligent Cub fan friends. Speaking of intelligent Cub fans, did you hear about the sign the Cub fans brought to last night's game rooting for the Sox to win "so they could get a rematch"? I thought that was pretty cool. Also, the Reds and Pirates historically give the Cubs a hard time, so nothing is certain.
  4. Also FIVE first-inning runs WITHOUT a home run!! Taking walks, singles, doubles.....dare I say....SMALLBALL???? And Colon was DOUBLE TOUGH tonight! The way he dialed it up in the 7th was FANTASTIC. Blowing 101mph heat past the Twinks was FUN to watch!! Time for Mark to run with it tonight!!! GO SOX!!!!
  5. WOW, you mean a "superior" season ticket holder who 'doesn't give a s*** about walkups" might actually HELP a walkup live out his dream of walking the concourse?? This sounds like the Make A Wish Foundation!!!
  6. Boo Hoo Hoo.... Should UD people be allowed to walk the lower concourse after the 6th Inning? After the 3rd inning? From the 4th til the 7th inning? In extra innings? After the game? After the game but before the fireworks? Jeez....obsess much?
  7. 100 pitches and 100 MPH! WHAT A JOB getting out of that jam!!! ToG!!!!
  8. Someone needs to learn how to read, because I've said it several times over this has nothing to do with $$$! The only time I am ever affected by this is when the LD sells out. If it hardly ever affects you, then it SHOULDN'T affect you enough to get so pissed off about it, SHOULD it? and I'll say it again - take this up with WHITE SOX MANAGEMENT if it means so much to you. Quit wasting our time.
  9. and for the record, HSC, I agree almost 100% with your post. I think the policy change was an over-reaction to the morons running on the field. But I also think it's kinda stupid to stay away from a game just because this guy refuses to pay a little more to sit downstairs. He has a choice and he knows the situation. Make the choice, don't b**** and whine about it.
  10. Starting a poll and expecting people not to voice an opinion about the poll is retarded. And you seem to have an unusual amount of anger about a relatively insignificant issue.
  11. I may tape it just to see Loaiza get #20. It's been a while since I've seen a Sox pitcher win #20 in a season. To get #20 over the Twinks would be SWEET. To have it be the final game of a Sox sweep............priceless.
  12. I voted maybe because there seems to be a number of people out there who this matters very deeply to. I doubt that it's a very large number of people. Personally, I couldn't care less if I'm allowed downstairs when i buy walkup UD seats. If I'm in the lower deck, I walk the concourse. If I'm in the upper deck, I tend to stay in my seat more of the time. That's how it works for me - of course, that's just my personal experience.
  13. Nobody here works for the White Sox. You're pissing in the wind. You asked our opinions, then got mad when they didn't match yours. And if I recall, YOU were the one throwing attitude first because nobody was voting for a sweeping policy change to bend to your potential sporadic attendance. I don't care WHERE you throw your hypothetical $3240.00. Because I don't work for the White Sox. When I go to games I walk up, and I don't give a s*** where I sit. I have purchased upper deck tickets when the lower deck was sold out, or when the only lower seats left cost more than I wanted to pay. I don't go to the ballpark to see a concourse, I go to see a baseball game. Make a decision and stop crying. No one cares....except maybe Bateman.
  14. I think he will hit eventually. He doesn't look completely lost up there, and time and experience will help him. I'd guess around .250 with a little pop, but not much. With what he gives behind the plate, that's plenty.
  15. Rusty Filter is THE COOLEST baseball name going right now!!!! Rusty Filter!!!!
  16. Looks like CF + GF = DL.... Good luck, Myers!!!
  17. ...but they're OVER .500!!!!! It's okay, I'm sure you'll support them by flipping the radio on... The people here are not ALL season-ticket holders, so your argument is as lame as your pathetic cry for help. Go, don't go, who cares???
  18. Oh, and they'll stick Ruutu with a couple of Steve Dubinskys and moan about how he can't score at the NHL level....
  19. Oh my God, man, quit cryin'! It's not even that nice down there, the UD concourse is JUST as good!!! Just go on a half-price Monday or Tuesday, or plan it out a little in advance. Give blood, sell some recyclables, put some pennies away and buy a lower deck ticket! The Sox should not HAVE to change their policy because YOU wanted to wait til the last second before deciding to grace them with your infrequent presence!!! Boo Hoo Hoo.....had me then ya lost me....
  20. Try doing something for yourself rather than b****ing and moaning and blaming others. Steff, don't bother aggravating yourself about this. What's he gonna do....throw stuff at you from his seat WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY up there???? He certainly can't come DOWN and look for you!!!
  21. Okay, let me try.................. ( putting on thinking cap ) Nope...............didn't work................sorry. ( taking off thinking cap, wiping off dust and placing it in nice safe place )
  22. I think Vina might be a little more expensive, and I'd rather have Robbie because Vina seems to get hurt more than Robbie. Read somewhere that Vina is throwing kisses at the Cubs.
  23. Dude, you need to VOTE! Don't just comment. How the F any SOX fan could vote NO to this question escapes me. Perhaps I should have restricted this poll to SOX FANS planning to go the games. It looks as though we have trolls voting. :fyou trolls! Juggernaut, I DID vote....I voted No. The question was whether or not the policy would prevent me from attending games. Since I don't prefer to sit in the UD, it really doesn't. I am not going to stay home because the Upper Deck people can't walk the concourse! That said, I can sympathize and understand your frustration. It just doesn't affect me since I don't sit up there. Then vote MAYBE! How am I going to get the policy changed if the NO votes > YES votes. And to you season ticket holders ... a BIG WIDE :fyou. When the team is s***ty in years to come because we still can't support a 70MIL payroll because of ASS- like you I'll be sure to throw your pompous exclusive vote up your ass! DON'T YOU TELL ME HOW TO VOTE!!!! Who do you think you are, a Chicago precinct captain???? It doesn't affect me at all, so it's not even a MAYBE in my mind. I understand the point of your poll, but you're strongarming the wrong people here!! ....just for that I'm gonna vote NO AGAIN, TOUGH GUY!!!!!
