October 31, 200619 yr Carmen said he was told two seats would remain blue and have plaques installed on them. The seat where Konerko WS grand slam landed, and Pods' walk off homer. It will be similar to the Red Sox's red seat with Ted Williams.
October 31, 200619 yr That is SPECTACULAR!!! I'll have to show up early for the first game I go to and get some pics with those seats. Great, great idea....kudos to Brooks.
October 31, 200619 yr I was about to say -- judging from the title alone-- if they don't have those damn green seats completely installed by next seasons first game, then the construction companies involved deserve to be fired. I like the idea of seats commemorating Konerko and Podsednik's respective HR's. Hopefully, Podsednik will have to view it as a visitor or on television.
October 31, 200619 yr I like that idea, it's very cool. I will be sure to get a pic with them the first time i get the chance to get there.
October 31, 200619 yr Very pimp! Those two HRs immediately came to my mind when hearing Rooney say a week ago that the highlight of his broadcasting career was calling a Pujols WS HR. As as I was, was great to relive those HRs again
October 31, 200619 yr when we demanded green seats we wanted every single seat green; way to fubar this whole plan this is going to be an even bigger eyesore sounds like a great idea but can we maybe get something done for wherever borchard's 500 footer landed
October 31, 200619 yr thats kick ass!! ya see Pods, even though we were all over you in 2006, you will always be a legend on the south side! Kind of like un-sung hero Geoff Blum lol
October 31, 200619 yr Cool idea. They should also make a spot for Borchard's longest HR in the history of the park.
October 31, 200619 yr http://www.mlb.com/NASApp/mlb/scripts/medi...lstr=&murl= That Thome homer there was huuuge. It hit the concourse aisle sign on one bounce. That seemed longer than Borchard's.
October 31, 200619 yr QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Oct 31, 2006 -> 03:55 PM) Cool idea. They should also make a spot for Borchard's longest HR in the history of the park. Yes... so someone can feel proud about their jersey...
October 31, 200619 yr QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ Oct 31, 2006 -> 04:25 PM) Yes... so someone can feel proud about their jersey... Hey, that jersey came in handy in Cinci.
October 31, 200619 yr QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Oct 31, 2006 -> 04:28 PM) Hey, that jersey came in handy in Cinci. Oh yeah, that was so money in that situation.
October 31, 200619 yr QUOTE(Reddy @ Oct 31, 2006 -> 04:22 PM) why not Blum's homer? huh? huh? come on now... ha, i don't know if the astros will be too keen on that idea
October 31, 200619 yr on a slightly related note: Anyone see the X on the third level seat in Citizens Bank Ballpark in Philly that Ryan Howard hit the home run to? Thats a big damn home run....
November 5, 200619 yr If the Astros don't want to have to commemorate our greatness, they should have won the World Series
