Pena Mis-manages KC Pen Interesting read. Although much of it does sound familliar.

I think many of us forget where the team was earlier this year. I remember going in to KC and our team said it was a "BIG SERIES". KC even before we started playing them said it wouldn't make or break thier season. Well the Sox face another BIG SERIES this week. I know how we can respond to that type of pressure. Go SOX. Let's go on another tear.

Michael Wilbon, on the ESPN show PTI, today called Shoop "the worst Offensive coordinator, if you can call him that, in all of football." I nearly peed myself when I heard him say that. That was a fairly liberal quote by the way. I posted it from memory.

I have gone to less games because of this policy. I used to go to about 12 - 15 games a year. Finding people who want to go to 12- 15 Sox games a year is difficult enough. But I have a large base of friends who would go to about 1 or 2 a year. They're mostly what I would call non-fans. They're simillar to what you'd find on the North side of town; they go to drink beer and have a good time. The game is secondary. I've converted many of them. I taught them all how to score a baseball game, what a balk was, and the infield fly rule. We would generally go on the half price nights and buy the cheapest seats. We would always start by sitting in our seats, but by the time we were done with our first beer, we'd head downstairs for some food and a better view. Most of the time we would settle into some bleacher seats or something in the outfield. I like to sit out there so i can tell what pitch is being thrown. The consensus among my friends was that they like the park. With the exception of sitting in the UD and the vertigo that is experienced, i.e. pop-ups look like home runs, generally not being able to tell where the ball is going. Back to the point. I've been to a half-price night after they changed the policy. I didn't think it would be a big deal to skip down to the lower bowl later in the game. Well I was wrong. The point is they are alienating fans. All of those friends that I just spoke of would now be forced to stay in the UD, where they enjoy the game much less. The result is those more casual fans, the bread and butter of MLB fans, go to less games; or have a lesser experience at the game. I've been to 8 games this year. I've spent 2.5 innings in the upper deck. I watched the remainder of that game in the bullpen sports bar. I've had to spend more money this year to go to less games. I've picked terrible games to go to. opening day- 3 hour rain delay, another that didn't start intil 10:15, and another that sprinkled through the entire game. I've seen big comebacks only to fall short, that 10:15 start. I've seen bullpen mismanagment, Colon pitching to bonds in the ninth. But what i've seen most is passionate fans. That game where it sprinkled all night I don't even remeber who we were playing; There couldn't have been more than 5,000 people there, altough the announced crowd was much larger, That 10:15 start, there were more people in the UD than downstairs. Anyone who waited that long should be allowed to "trade up" to better seats. I've rambled for long enough. The White Sox have great fans. Treat them with a little more respect, give them a better ballpark experience, and they will come out. In years past I was responsible for over 50 tickets being sold per year. This year I've been to 8 games, only twice have I gone with more than one person. I can count 24 tickets i've been responsible for being sold. I may go to tomorrows game, if i ditch class, and probably one more time. That's 10 games for me, slightly below average, and about 30 tickets sold. Does the UD policy at the cell affect attendance? YES!!!

Danny pitched a great game today. D. Wright 5.0IP 5H 2R 2ER 1BB 4K 2HR 5.42ERA We're going to need him again down the stretch. Let's hope he's gotten everything worked out for the stretch drive. Way to go Danny. Keep it up.

This is the WORST Bears team I can ever remember seeing. without question.

Who said Kieth Foulke wasn't helping us. It was all in KW's master plan. Trade away the best closer in the American League, Sign a guy nobody wants, Win Cy Young award.
