What section are you in? (Bleachers, OF Box, etc). They handed out a half sheet of paper with each price per game based on whether the game is marquee, silver, platinum, etc. I happened to keep it, so let me know what section you're in and I'll type it in.

Given what Ray Lewis has, uh, "gotten away with" in the past, I'm guessing this one won't stain his reputation much. (nor will it stain that missing white suit, but I digress.)

Hadn't thought about people leaning over. Good point. :banghead: Worst case scenario is I move it back a bit next season, or finally make the move to lower level. Cheers, friends!

I'll be here for the season - Section 433, Row 2, Seats 103-104. I had a chance at Row 1, but from that angle, the rail was perfectly in line with the pitch path (unless Randy Johnson was pitching to Manute Bol [God rest his soul]). We'll be using these a few times a month (as we moved to Cincinnati the DAY AFTER we got these tickets back in December 2011). Should anyone ever need 2, look me up! Or for those in the area, come visit when we're there to toast an overpriced plastic cup.

uh... hmm Ok then. Source: http://www.mlbdailydish.com/2011/12/26/2662249/cubs-rumors-chicago-nearing-deal-with-jason-jaramillo

fortunately it's jeff stevens. #FACT

I'm all for giving Quade the benefit of the doubt to start the year but good God, what's he doing to Jeff Stevens right now?! This pitch count is insane!

Wait, wait, Toyota? Really? Let's put up a Tiger Woods sign instead...or AIG? I guess I'll go ahead and make the obvious joke, stating that the Cubs should put the brakes on the Toyota plans.

Can anyone with a better sense of long-term memory help me out with this? Which pitchers under Dusty's regimes (SF, Cubs, Reds) have had TJS or equivalent major surgeries? I remember pulling my hair out over pitcher abuse during his tenure, but am curious of names. Thanks in advance! BP

My bad, didn't get my message edited in time. My point being, I'm NOW living in Chicago. Wonder if, for instance, blocking a Chicago IP address range from getting into the VWR could be their method of blocking local ticket brokers? These are the arcane things that can go through your mind as you watch windows refresh for 2 hours. :)

As I sit and watch my 116 tabs refresh over and over for 100+ minutes, I'm trying to figure out why some get in multiple times and others can't get in once. I'm wondering if it's some sort of selective IP thing. Of all those reporting multiple successes, by chance do any of you have Chicago addresses? For four years prior, living in Indy, I was able to get my max 42 tickets within 20-30 minutes. This year, now living in Chicago, zero luck thus far. Where geographically are you all located?

On 1/4/07 I was 7048. Today I'm 6983, moving up all of 65 places in that time. If I remember right, I got on the list somewhere in '05 or '06. I'm on the "when I retire" plan too, but anytime before then would be ideal. Questions on season tickets, as I don't know how it works: About how many of the 39K-ish seats are season ticket holders? And does anyone know a rough guess as to where the sections line up for season tickets? I always found it strange when I could get a single game ticket through the regular ticket methods and be 10-15 rows back from the dugout but then hear about season ticket holders being up in the balcony. Is there any rhyme or reason to where season tickets are located?

I'm just praying no bones are broken in the clubhouse: Hey Z: [-X

IBT (in before trade) Agree with the above poster - I just wanted to be part of the ridiculous thread this has been throughout the off-season.

Call me a boring old traditionalist, but give me pinstripes at home, give me road grey - I even prefer no names, but my only real opinion is this. Please, for the love of God, NO MORE BLUES. The batting practice look 3 out of every 5 games (based on pitcher preferences) just doesn't seem like classic baseball to me. Seems like one more bit of lazy Baker coaching where every tiny preference the players want from their coach, they get. Beyond that, seems like a shameless ploy to sell more jerseys by introducing something "new" every few years (put the names on, take the names off, change the text on the roads, add red to the bill, take red off the bill, etc). If we're going blue, let's do it on Memorial Day, Labor Day, July 4, etc. A TRUE alternate. While I'm giving unasked for opinions, how about 4 or 5 "Throw Back the Clock" nights with old, classic looks? That'll sell some merchandise, and I'll be first in line.
