Wealz Posted May 26, 2006 Share Posted May 26, 2006 Greenstein seems to downplay the increase, however looking at the schedule so far, 15 of the 46 games were weekday afternoon games or weeknight west coast games. http://chicagosports.chicagotribune.com/sp...-home-headlines Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlackBetsy Posted May 26, 2006 Share Posted May 26, 2006 More $$$ for the Sox! It's the virtuous cycle right now for the Sox. Success on the field brings more fans in seats and higher television ratings.... More fans in seats and higher television ratings means more $$ for the Sox.... More $$ for the Sox means more money to keep good players / sign free agents / sign good draft picks.... Keeping good players / signing free agents / signing good draft picks means success on the field. Lather, rinse, repeat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WCSox Posted May 26, 2006 Share Posted May 26, 2006 QUOTE(SnB @ May 26, 2006 -> 08:45 AM) I credit it to hawk's new hat. Whatever happened to the "Hawk" hat that he wore back in the mid-90's? I wanted to get my hands on one, but was never able to find them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Ginger Kid Posted May 26, 2006 Share Posted May 26, 2006 (edited) That's terrific news. The Sox seem to be doing a great job of marketing this team and it's nice to see the front office reaping the rewards for their hard work. Of course, it doesn't hurt when your team wins a world series and gets off to a great start, but still.

He's really done a bang up job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gregory Pratt Posted May 26, 2006 Share Posted May 26, 2006 Maybe more people would rather watch them than listen to them now, what with Singleton and Farmer? Great news. And I love their marketing blitz all over Chicago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great news. And I love their marketing blitz all over Chicago. It all depends on where you live. I love watching the Sox, but can only do that when they are on WGN or ESPN (The Yankees and Red Sox channel). I bought XM Satelitte to listen as I am out of town 4 days out of 7 (that's a week right?). I would love to buy the MLB extra innings package on cable, but that doesn't do any good for me when I am on the road so much. I know I should make the wife record all the games.
