SoxFan1 Posted July 8, 2005 Share Posted July 8, 2005 I don't like them when they are off the wagon but I love 'em when they are on. Any attendance boosts are good IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RockRaines Posted July 8, 2005 Share Posted July 8, 2005 hate em, because I like it when the park is almost empty, its easier to get places, easier to get sweet tickets, and the beer line is shorter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course! Less money for the teams betterment, more Cubby fans trying to throw attendance in our face, and less money to get better stuff around the Cell! YES!

Balta1701 Posted July 8, 2005 Share Posted July 8, 2005 Love them, because I can't pay to keep Buehrle around...and enough of them working together could. Â And no matter what they tell themselves...they know in the back of their mind that they're bandwagoners, and I know in the back of mine that I've sat here and watched collapse after collapse...just waiting for us to be the team at the top, while they haven't.

SnB Posted July 8, 2005 Share Posted July 8, 2005 I don't mind bandwagoners. If we end up winning anything, we all know the real fans get ALOT more satisfaction out of it. I know all of my friends that are the real fans and all the ones that are bandwagoners. Â I went through it during the Illini run this year, it sucks dealing with the idiots. But real fans get so much more out of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
