    Only 21K showed up for the game last night?
    I don't blame the Sox fans.
    Why would anyone pay money to see the Cubs?

    Yeah, crazy to see that few people at a Sox-Cubs game....not too surprising. 2 horseshit teams combined with the fact that these games have been going on for around 15 years now...just doesn't have the same luster to it anymore. Maybe they'll get a big crowd tonight since it's supposed to be a beautiful day....finally some warmth!

    Yes Wrigley is an old stadium and lacks "modern" comforts and technology but it is an amazing place to watch a game.

    I would much rather see a ballgame in Wrigley that at a newer stadium like Miller park with the blaring music and endless advertisements and promotions. To me the atmosphere at Wrigley is so much better for a game.

    Exactly. I don't go to a baseball game to be overstimulated by the seizure inducing lights, obnoxiously loud music, prime rib sandwiches and martinis delivered to my seat in a climate controlled sterile environment.

    I go to watch the action on the field, period. A field made of grass. Outside. In the sunshine.

    Newer is not always better, quite the contrary. Just my opinion.



    Nice shirt.

    A little prediction
    By June 1st
    Both Castro and Rizzo will be hitting around .240-.250

    Sadly, I think you are right about Castro and Rizzo.

    They are the first two pieces that Theo put in place for the future and I am not sure that they are going to be guys that you can build around.

    Samardzija continues to pitch well but still winless.

    I think about the only places you don't get grass and outdoors are Toronto and Tampa....maybe Phoenix.....but, basically, the days of AstroTurf are over.....and if you want to watch Cubs' "action," be my guest.

    Nice to kick the cards ass, especially after they hit Wood on purpose. I doubt Wood wanted to hit 2 cards in one inning and let the cards back in it with a 7 run lead, but first pitch to Wood next inning the punk ass Cards hit him on purpose, even the ESPN guys said it was on purpose. It starts with Molina and Matheny as they are just dirty. Glad we stuck it to them.

    Intentional or not, if you hit 2 guys in 1 inning, you gotta expect the other team to come right back at you and plunk one of your guys.

    too bad the season didn't end last night and you could keep these memories all winter.
