whitesoxin' Posted April 15, 2004 Share Posted April 15, 2004 How much money do we lose scheduling these day games... so why have them? They anticipate cold April weather. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flippedoutpunk Posted April 15, 2004 Share Posted April 15, 2004 It was very cold at the park if you were in the shade. If you moved to the sunny side of the park, then you had no problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NUKE_CLEVELAND Posted April 15, 2004 Share Posted April 15, 2004 supposed to be 70 tommorow, should have no problems anywhere. I wonder if the weather is still too cold for the Flubs hitters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slick03 Posted April 15, 2004 Share Posted April 15, 2004 All the NY games are night games next week, so hopefully the weather holds up. If so, you can expect a pretty packed house for that series. im on vacation that next week, and im going to as many sox games as i can...not that anybody cares, but i just felt like saying something Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cwsox Posted April 15, 2004 Share Posted April 15, 2004 I remember that well. In fact, someone around here used that whole rant as their signature once. CubKilla is that person-  saw him opening day with Mike and Guido - really great guys all of them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soxfan420 Posted April 15, 2004 Share Posted April 15, 2004 We need to fill the seats for good mid-season moves and the future. Maybe just because it's Arpril and day games, attendance is low; but, hopefully when the night games start, the attendance will pick up. Any thoughts? i dont understand why they have so many day games, how mnay people can tell there bosses they cant go to work today, because i have to go to the sox games. day games should be for weekends.

Flash Tizzle Posted April 15, 2004 Share Posted April 15, 2004 CubKilla id that person- saw him opening day with Mike and Guido - really great guys all of them Guido  Evertime I hear somebody called that name I think of the stereotypical Italian:  Short, high pitched voice, obsessed with restoring family values and showcasing the Italian flag on every item of cloting.    I'm part Italian so I'm allowed to say it!

SnB Posted April 15, 2004 Share Posted April 15, 2004 was there today, attendance was 15k, i sat in left field, just one section away from where 3 HR's were hit, including mag's bomb, the place went nuts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrandoFan Posted April 16, 2004 Share Posted April 16, 2004 11K is inexcusable either way. Â 15K is pretty bad as well. Â Weather was ok. Team is good. Park is better than ever. Rival in town. Still some of the cheapest tickets in the majors. Â We know Reiny is not gonna spend 75-80+ Mill if Sox can't draw 3 Mill. Â The equestions is: just WHAT would it take to get 3 Mill Sox fans through the turnstiles at this point? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went drinking with them a couple of times when I've been home and had a blast both times. Should be going a couple of more times with them during May when I'm home. Looking forward to it too.

Flash Tizzle Posted April 16, 2004 Share Posted April 16, 2004 The bigger question of course still stands: High quality FA's, better marketing, 1st place throughout most of the year, advancement past first round of playoffs, and most importantly the yuppification of the surrounding neighborhoods. There's too many bad stereotypes facing this organization and its location in Chicago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steff Posted April 17, 2004 Share Posted April 17, 2004 Yea.. good ideas. However we've been "told" that they aren't going to spend $$ unless the fans come out. Â Â So, Brando.. you have a good time out at the park supporting your team this week...? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
