Sadly, you'd see the same at the last game at Wrigley.

Trib Co. felt that more money could be made buying in to the WB. The trend away from national broadcasts continues, as even TBS is showing fewer and fewer Braves games

Please stop calling thugs like this "fans". Fans don't do this. Criminals do -
I think the NFL system works because the teams act as 32 subsidiaries of one corporation, all following the same fiscal rules. The MLB acts like 30 franchises of one company, each creating their own rules with only basic fiscal guidelines governing them. The thing I hate about the NFL are the non-guaranteed contracts

Good point....Good teams almost always take advantage of extra outs. I suppose you could turn that around and say they became a good team because they did well with all the extra outs. The Dye thing wasn't an extra out. Had it been called right, it would have still been 3-2 with 2 out. He might have walked on the next pitch. No way of knowing. Yes but the bad call led to circumstances which resulted in the grand slam. If the right call had been made, chances are the inning would of gone very differently. Why are the chances that it would have gone differently? If the next pitch was a ball, the bases are loaded, Garner still replaces Walker, and Konerko still swings away. We'll never know....

Boo hoo! Those big bad bullies will make fun of me! It's a good thing you have met and been harassed by so many Sox fans out in State College, PA. It's a good thing I've lived here for 6 months after living in Chicago for 13 years. But you guys who live in Syracuse, California and Texas run into Sox fans by the truckloads every day. :roll:

Boo hoo! Those big bad bullies will make fun of me! Funny, that seems to be alot of people's attitude on this board recently.

So long as individual teams set their own TV deals (or worse, own their own networks), you'll never see an NFL style revenue sharing system

I don't love the Sox. They don't really do much for me. But I don't despise them with every fiber of my being. And why don't they deserve a championship? Because you don't like them? Or maybe they cheated?

Hateful and angry. The World Series is about to be forever tainted, and our fellow Cub fans are facing relentless persecution in their own city. What other reaction could one feel in the face of this travesty? Yup, we've been facing persecution for, ooooh, 90 years now? AND WE ARE THE LOVEABLE LOSERS remember..... How does this change that? Do the sox winning change how you feel about the cubs? Increases your self loathing perhaps? Doesn't change it for me. I will never change my allegiances from the cubs no matter what, not even by a %. What anyone else says, whomever else wins, whatever knuckleheaded people or moves the organizations undertakes, I'm a cubs fan. This "you aren't a cubs fan if you do not hate the sox" is lame. Is your love of the team that tenuous? What about all the other teams that have been kicking our tushes for all of my life? =D> =D> =D> =D> =D> =D>

What other reaction could one feel in the face of this travesty? I think I've stated pretty clearly what other reactions one could feel, so I won't bore everyone by repeating myself.

I am indeed on Firefox. I'll look into it. It's pretty annoying though. Requires many "reloads" to get past the error. -

"Chicago sports" fans buy that rubbish. "Cub" fans don't. How does it feel to be filled with so much hate and anger?

I get this one all the time after I hit "Submit" Max connections per IP reatched, ( 8 ) please use fewer open windows I don't have many open windows. And reached is misspelled. What's the deal? -
Of course he was, the amount of sour grapes about the White Sox on this board is really dragging it down. The Sox are in the series, deal with it! Stop making a million posts trying to drag them down!

Say what you will, but the Sox are truly playing championship baseball. As much as it hurts to say, I'm pretty sure the Cubs would have lost both of those games to the Astros. I hate the word "fate", but the Sox surely look like they have someone looking out for them (and don't say the umpires!)
-
Sorry, but you are saying something. You can't start a thread smearing someone's name, then back off the claim and say you're not. So at this point, you are going to figure any player having a moment worth remembering in their career is in on steriods? No, just any player on a team he doesn't like accomplishing something special and memorable in a championship series.

You want Rich Aurilia on the team so soon?
