JM blew out his bullpen against Cleve

Bart's still out there

I've seen enough double plays this year to last a lifetime.

Have to make them pay for Hocking's choke.

LeCroy's head doesn't fit into his helmet

popped him up

One of Hawk's most enthusiastic He GAWN ever

He looks like he walks around with one of the old umpire balloons under his jersey.

I think you have to go to Wunch here against the lefty.

Or a rocket right back to Bart

Maybe he's throwing his voice. If he sold hot dogs for a game or 2 and delivered a couple or 10 to Rooney, he'd be back in his good graces.

Maybe its the GUG in diguise

What did I tell you. BTW may last post was supposed to be green.

Don't worry Jose's errors never hurt the White Sox

The pinstripes slimming effect doesn't work on Bart

he gawn

LeCroy looks like meathead

Bart's got the good gas tonight. He's popping it at 97

Taxi's from the airports? Airport fees? How does this effect every taxpayer in Illinois? That is what I'm responding to. I don't think people not in Chicago use taxi's on a regular basis. What are the airport fees? If its a revision it was revised AFTER Comiskey Park was built. Any revision would be to cover the costs of McCormick Place and Soldier Field, so don't get that mixed up with the Cell. The Cell does get a small portion for upkeep.Funny how the state's website and the ISFA website say nothing about these other fees or revisions to the charter. They both say the money comes from a 2% city hotel tax, rent from the White Sox, if it applies, and fees for other events, like the Rolling Stones, Springsteen, etc.

No you are wrong. The Illinois Sports Facilities Authority gets its money from a hotel tax which is collected in the City of Chicago only. I just looked it up on the state's website. The only taxpayers who footed the bill for this park are people who have stayed in Chicago hotels. Look it up for yourself.

You want to know what the scalpers are selling the tickets for..? Face or under. I have yet to see one selling them over this year for anything but the AS festivities. Anyone else..? You can get them by the 35th st. EL stop pretty cheap, never over face, unless maybe the Cubs.

This is great, a NEW reason not to attend White Sox games." I bought a ticket for the upper deck, and they actually want me to sit in the upper deck". The gall.

Yeah.. you were not at all rude or confrontational... Steff, come on now. That was after the posts complaining about what I should have done & such & such. This was a non-confrontational thread looking solely for votes but suddenly turned into a season ticket holder's diatribe on why walk-ups suck. Well far be it for me to throw some fire in the other direction. That came after a post which said pay more for the LD which you replied it wasn't about money, and a post asking where you would sit considering the lower bowl is sold out. It was unprovoked,uncalled for, and totally immature. There were no posts remotely saying walk ups suck. Re read it from the beginning.

As lackluster as White Sox attendance has been, they have the highest average per home date in the AL Central.

First of all every taxpayer in Illinois did NOT pay for that park. That park was paid for when a hotel tax was added. I believe the hotel tax is only charged in Chicago, I could be mistaken. So if you haven't stayed in a hotel and payed for it, none of your money has gone towards the park. The family of 6 if they don't want to spend the extra $8 per person per game to sit in the lower deck, or the extra $4 per person on half priced night can get $1 kids tickets when they go on Sunday. Or good upper deck seats are usually available, especially in advance. If the lower bowl is sold out, this family of six would have a hard time finding a place to sit anyway, and if you have young children your not going to want them standing for hours at a time. You can see the whole park, if you pay for it. I just don't understand the argument of how you should be able to buy the cheapest ticket and sit wherever you want. Its not fair to the people who paid their way. The concession lines become longer, the bathroom lines longer. If you go to the bathroom, you'll miss an inning or 2 and come back and someone will be sitting in your seat.
