Just some other highlights from my experience: -Arroyo was heckled. A "Cut Your Hair" chant was started. There were also other homosexual comments made to him. -Josh Hamilton was also given a hard time. Every other comment was him being called "Crack Hamilton" and other references such as "snow" etc. The entire section also chanted "Smoke some crack!" -I saw Z leave the building. Was pissed. Turned on his black Hummer. Gave him some encouragement. -Saw Jones leave the building. I told him he better hit a home run tomorrow. -Saw Santo leave... was not happy. -Saw Soriano leave. Looked back and smiled at fans. -Saw Hughes leave.. gave us a wave from his car. No one came to sign autographs for the time I was there waiting by the fence.
If you guys listen to the latest Cubscast Podcast, he does an interview with Mike Marshall and he discusses the errors in Prior's mechanics. http://www.cubscast.com/podcasts/cubscast258.mp3 Something about the starting motion where his hand goes behind his head. Listen for yourself.
I'm more for a collective boo against the whole team, because of the ways they've lost ball games these last four days. Maybe it will wake them up. If we cheer for them, wont they think its okay for them to suck?

Have more pics.. but they're not really clear.
Just came home... Good game, bad ending. I was in the pile-up for Z's home run. It came right at me... But unfortunately I was surrounded by the greatest fans in baseball.
No, if he doesn't get ejected at all this year I win-that's what I chose. Yeah.. and that's probably the best bet. It's the safest one. Not the best one. Mine's the best bet. :wink: My Birthday.
