QUOTE (MuckFinnesota @ Jul 25, 2012 -> 10:31 PM) I went last night because there were half priced codes available and Quintana was pitching. There are half price codes for pretty much every game, just gotta know where to look.

A sweep today would sure be a palate cleanser after the last week. Let's get everyone excited again!

"GET OUT OF THE WAY SEPTIMO"

QUOTE (spiderman @ Jul 25, 2012 -> 06:09 AM) Why has attendance suddenly spiked the past two games? They have gone from low 20's to suddenly the mid 30's. Have fans finally decided that the team is worth seeing? What changed? Promotions on Monday/Tuesday? I really think it's the lack of home games this month. Anyone who wanted to go to a game in the last 2 or 3 weeks had to buy a ticket for one of these last 2. (assuming they're normal people and have to work today for the day game )

I'm really hoping that you're just assuming your thai friend will only eat thai food.

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Jul 16, 2012 -> 04:47 PM) I would bring back Lilli in a heartbeat and DFA Hudson This.

So I have to start doing phone call audits at work where I call one of our branches and pretend to be a customer. My fake names are always going to be obscure white sox players. Today I used Danny Richar.

QUOTE (bigruss22 @ Jul 14, 2012 -> 10:42 PM) HOLY f***ING s*** This season is going to rock our world, CANT f***ING WAIT. I feel like they took the criticism of season 2 to heart and are going to make this one action packed.

Is it just me or were the "spicy nacho" doritos actually spicy a few years ago? I remember them having a little kick to them. I bought a bag recently and they weren't spicy at all. Maybe it's just me.

QUOTE (ewokpelts @ Jul 12, 2012 -> 11:33 AM) If you're over 21, get an upper deck seat, and get the bullpen bar seats. I've been to 100+ games and had no idea you could do this. Those are the seats near the right foul pole right? I thought you needed to buy tickets for those (like the pregame buffet)

Easy

The sox didn't get Dunn to hit singles. The opponents would gladly give Dunn a single every time he comes up if it meant taking away 100% of his power.

QUOTE (WHarris1 @ Jul 5, 2012 -> 09:00 AM) Day games are just wonderful work amusement, that is all. This. Work really hard until 1, then I'm entertained for the rest of the day.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 3, 2012 -> 11:03 AM) The Sox B lot does the same thing. Really? The only time I've ever had a truly awful parking experience at a sox game was in Lot B. It took about an hour just to get out of the lot. This was probably back in like 03 or 04 though.

QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Jul 2, 2012 -> 11:16 PM) I used to live in HE, so did this drive plenty. Take 290, not 90 - but only on the way there. Church parking. Off Wentworth right when you get off at 35th and cross through the intersection. If you hit 37th you missed it. You will be out of the lot and on the highway in about 25 seconds. Same exact price as Sox lots. You could take the blue line, but the drive in all the way to Cumberland sucks unless it's early, and on the back end it takes forever to get home when in the car you'll cruise. On the way home, take 90. Getting onto 290 takes forever as it goes down to a one lane winding ramp. This. If you miss the church parking, take the right onto 37th and do one of those lots on the south side of the stadium. Way easier to get out over there.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Jun 27, 2012 -> 02:01 PM) I'd love some rain. My poor lawn.

I'll be in Cleveland this week for work. The indians are out of town and I've already been to the Rock n Roll Hall of fame. Any recommendations?

QUOTE (ewokpelts @ Jun 21, 2012 -> 09:35 AM) the sox have a groupon offer out now, if anyone's interested: http://chicago.whitesox.mlb.com/cws/ticket...B174M37G1V-1Q81 $56 for the brewer series. the cost of the patio ticket plus the game ticket is only $6 higher than what was posted back when tix first went on sale. This was a great deal, I grabbed 2 for sunday. I'm fully planning to starve myself Saturday night to take advantage of the unlimited food and beer for 3 hours.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jun 21, 2012 -> 02:24 PM) Anytime a pitch hits you in the face it is "close" to ending your career. Sox didn't care and let them plunk another Sox, the likeable De Aza. WTF? Team loses 2 of 3 and one of them with Zach Stewart on the mound. In the opener?? Thanks for just serving it up there on a tee for the lousy Cubs to steal momentum. yep. momentum. in baseball.

I received a letter from Lombard saying that First Energy Solutions is going to take over my electric bill from ComEd unless I opt out. Has anyone dealt w/ any of these new electric companies since the deregulation? Any issues?

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Jun 18, 2012 -> 12:30 PM) HDMI cables are like $2 on Amazon. Same quality as the 50-60 dollar ripoffs at Best Buy. I always laugh when I see them at target for like $50. What a profit.

QUOTE (JPN366 @ Jun 14, 2012 -> 12:36 AM) Alright, I'm one season in on the Breaking Bad catch up marathon. Damn, I wish I had started watching it originally. I actually watched the first three episodes in 2008, but couldn't get into it then. I was kind of the same. I almost dropped it after watching the first few episodes on netflix, it just didn't catch my interest. I ended up sticking with it after a little break and am glad I did. HOLY GOD season 4 is crazy, I'm halfway through it.

I used to work in one of our client's offices where 90% of the employees didn't go to college. Let me tell you, there is a MAJOR difference between 20 somethings w/ degrees and 20 somethings w/o degrees. Not in intelligence per se, but in how they conduct themselves and certain life decisions that are made. We couldn't organize a happy hour on a certain friday because it wasn't their payday. Most of them didn't have $100 to their name. As others have said, you pretty much need that piece of paper to have a half decent shot at getting where you want to be in life.

GO TO THE GAME. EVERYONE.
