danniboi Posted April 7, 2005 Share Posted April 7, 2005 That's ODD :o I remember when the Cubs were playing the Braves the Sox fans were rooting for the Braves but when the Cubs beat them they were all saying "It be nice if someone from Chicago won the WS" . I guess it all depends on where you live :yes: Last year sucked for Cubs fans but the best thing that happened was when i bought a T-Shirt that said White Sux :woot: Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/305391-chicago-fans-cubs-or-sox/page/2/#findComment-585740945 Share on other sites More sharing options...
danniboi Posted April 7, 2005 Share Posted April 7, 2005 @ LRoling - taking the train to the game is the way to go :yes: Driving in traffic & finding parking is horrible. Who knows, i may of seen you a thousand times already :shifty: Although sometimes i wish i would be a Sux fan, no problem finding tickets, cheap tickets, and plenty of parking :D Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/305391-chicago-fans-cubs-or-sox/page/2/#findComment-585740964 Share on other sites More sharing options...

thechitowncubs Posted April 8, 2005 Author Share Posted April 8, 2005 I don't remember that at all. What I remember is Sox fans openly rooting against the Cubs and for the Braves, then openly rooting against the Cubs and for the Marlins.I remember reading an article about a Sox fan bar owner who was giving away a free round of beer whenever the Marlins hit a HR. After reading that, I was rooting sooooooooo hard for a 23-21 Cubs victory with the Marlins hitting like 15 HR but alas it wasn't so. The thing that sucks the most about the "new" Cub fans is that it makes getting tickets soo much harder. Just before they've gotten on their current run of play tickets were always there the day of game and from scalpers for a "fair" price. Now, everything is sold out before opening day and don't even try to find tickets to Cubs-Sox (Red or White) or a late season Cubs-Cards game unless you're willing to mortgage part of your house or take in a renter. 585738765[/snapback] me and my dad went there for the Cubs vs San Diego game last year and right after the game started we went the the box office and got tickets 3 rows up right behing home plate for face value... man you just got to know HOW to get tickets Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/305391-chicago-fans-cubs-or-sox/page/2/#findComment-585746942 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tuffgong4 Posted April 8, 2005 Share Posted April 8, 2005 White Sox fan all my life. I'm not a fight starter over the white sox v cubs thing, but I hate the cubs. Which even most cubs fans understand. It's just how baseball is in Chicago. Actually watching the Brewers come back in the ninth and take a 6-3 lead in the 12th over the cubs as we speak! But honestly to each his/her own. Played baseball my whole life as well all the way up through High School and even played for a few traveling teams and played and won an AAU tournament in Illinois. Sadly I was offered a baseball Scholarship to a DII school in Illinois but the college I went to gave me similar money for academics and was a better school overall. When I was little (I think around 13) Ozzie Guillen hurt his knee and and his sons played in the district I played in so he would come to the games and hang out with the families. It was pretty cool. ONly thing I really hate about the cubs is how rich the tribune company is and they don't put that money they make back into the team. Also the scalping the cubs do for their OWN TICKETS!!!!!!!!!

BroChaos Veteran Posted April 9, 2005 Veteran Share Posted April 9, 2005 lol, i hated him too. you can't call yourself an athlete when you are that fat. well, so far, starting out just like last year. wood/prior/zambrano/maddux will pitch a perfect game, and then the bullpen will blow it.

danniboi Posted April 10, 2005 Share Posted April 10, 2005 A 1 hitter by Z Carlos WILL win CY Young this year along with 22 wins & one no hitter. He's the best pitcher in the NL, Top 3 of MLB.
