  1. 39,640 for me Was it just updated? I could have sworn I was around 43000 last summer
  2. I wish the Blackhawks did this. I have been on their waiting list for 7 years and they have a 99.6% renewal rate. In my section I have partial season tickets, scalpers bought up rows of tickets just before the 2009 winter classic, none of those people ever set foot in the United Center.
  3. Could it be that tickets were sold twice for some games? Like you sold the Electronic copies on Stubhub and the paper tickets someone else tried to use? The Bears booted my friend for this, it wasn't even his fault(although he was stupid) He sold tickets via Ebay and sent the electronic copy to the buyer, the buyer came back and said please also mail me the hard copy for a souvenir, the guy sold both copies.
  4. Mine shipped Saturday from Fanatics and is due to be delivered Wednesday. It's sitting in Wheeling, Illinois since last night. Someone over at Reddit already go theirs and said you can watch each game with the Pat and Ron radio feed
  5. That was pretty good, and Costas only spoke at the very beginning for a few seconds.
  6. Why wouldn't it be home game one? And, yeah, I imagine they'll be insanely gaudy. I thought I read someone post on this board that the rings aren't being handed out until game 2?
  7. I think ring night is home game 2.
  8. Amazon has the digital for $20
  9. No, but I don't think there are any other good options. Someone should make one. P.S. I'm debating looking into making an online marketplace that puts sth in direct contact with buyers, not unlike something similar to Let go, but not app based, skipping the middle man. Lots of logistics, but it could be worth exploring. Could you create a email group here? I would love to join as a buyer. No fees for either party If you get a group of say 20 people for example and the Reds are in town you could say I have 4 tickets in Sec XXX row XX $100 each Selling either 2 or 4 tickets
  10. I would think they can next year, even with the 20% increase. The Hawks tickets kept increasing since 2010 around 20%, to the point where profits by STH's now in 2016 barely make a profit. In 2010 upper level $300s were $12 and could be sold for $75 a ticket on average. Now those tickets are $65 and resale is still around $75. Not much profit to be made. I see the same thing happening to the Cubs as they continue to win the World Series eventually if tickets continue to go up 20% the profit margin will dry up. The real money to be made by Cubs STH will be the playoffs down the road
  11. I ordered the same for my son and it was delivered Monday before Thanksgiving, and a second one I did not order arrived the Wednesday before Thanksgiving. The 2nd one had my address on the label but the packing slip had someone who lived outside of Green Bay. I emailed them saying I wanted to return it, but they said they would charge the guy from Green Bay a return fee so I just kept it. They seem to be all screwed up with orders.
  12. I have watched this 3 times this weekend. Really liked it and the hour documentary afterward. Well done. Now I just have to wait for the 8 Disc WS full game + NLCS game 6 to arrive. I only wish they got rid of the losing WS games, and added NLDS game 4, and maybe NLCS game 1.
  13. I've watched the final out on my DVR every night before I go to bed since it happened.
  14. http://chicago.cbslocal.com/2016/11/29/boers-its-time-to-say-goodbye/ Here is his retirement article. Listening to his speech yesterday sure makes it sound like he is dying and really hopes he can even make it to January 5th.
  15. As for MLB.com orders. I ordered 7 things Nov 4th. An outfit for my kid arrived 11-19 3 things arrived today 1 due next Wednesday 1 shirt for some reason not shipping until 12-5 1 Blu Ray not due out until 12-13(expected) Why is MLB so horsefeathering slow with their orders? Too bad Amazon didn't run this.
  16. i think my ebay account is the oldest account i have for anything. i think i must've made it in 99 or 2000. still have my high school era username that i used on things. nsbb might be second. I still use my hotmail email account I registered in 1997 as my primary email address.
  17. Well pitchers and catchers report in 86 days
  18. http://www.sportsmemorabilia.com/sports-products/hot-market-baseball-framed-core-no-game-used43.html Although I found one a couple weeks ago that looked better but can't find it now. It listed the NLDS and NLCS as well
  19. Did anyone ever find an answer to this question? I can't find any mention of the regular World Series video being included in the package with the full games, so my guess is that it isn't, but there is nothing that specifies one way or another. I am wondering too. I ordered the 8 disc set, don't want to order the regular WS champs disc if its already included. And the 8 disc set is now $55.11 at Amazon https://www.amazon.com/Chicago-Cubs-World-Collectors-Blu-ray/dp/B01LRCDYSY/ref=sr_1_fkmr0_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1479657611&sr=8-2-fkmr0&keywords=cubs+world+series+8+disc+blu+ray
  20. Damn, sucks to hear that
  21. Bruce Levine was on the Score this morning sounding pessimistic a deal gets done by Dec 2nd, and said a lockout could happen. First I heard of that, and doubtful it would come to that, especially considering earlier this week Manfried was very positive a deal would get done.
  22. Yes. I remember when the ACA passed, many dimwits on Facebook and Twitter said because of this they were moving to Canada. I had to laugh
