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:

@ 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

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.

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

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!!!!!!!!!

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.

[sigh]....

that was a long game

did any of you guys notice all the sissies leaving early at todays game?

maybe they'll think twice about leaving early now :p

I'm usually one of the last to leave the games unless i go with my 4 year old son, i usually leave end of 8th/top of 9th so i dont have to wait an hour to get on the red line with him

    • Rescind the stupid "Show more options" in context menus and just give us the full menu instead of adding more steps to get to what we want. The "simpler by default" makes me think they'll go in the opposite direction. Every context menu should have a configure button so you can pick and choose what options should be shown, I know you can do that with some registry fu but that shouldn't be required.
    • This is why competition must exist. Finally, pressure is mounting on Microsoft to move in the right direction.
    • Microsoft is making Windows 11's context menus faster, simpler, and configurable by Taras Buria Five years ago, Windows 11 introduced redesigned context menus, offering users a simpler, more modern design. However, customers quickly discovered that the new menus leave a lot to be desired. Many are unhappy with performance (they are really slow), while others dislike the double-layed design, where many options are hidden behind the "Show more options" button. In addition, over the years, menus became cluttered and overloaded. While Microsoft has already fixed plenty of pain points across Windows 11, context menus remain mostly unchanged. Fortunately, Microsoft is finally listening. Marcus Ash, Design and Research Lead for Windows at Microsoft, responded to a tweet on X, confirming that the company is working on fixing Windows 11's context menus. Reworked context menus are supposed to be faster, simpler by default, and "configurable to what you use most." What the latter means is unknown, just like whether Microsoft plans to keep the classic menu alongside the modern one, but according to Marcus, the wait should finally be over soon, as he promised to "share our approach soon." Improved context menus will most likely appear first in Windows 11 preview builds in the Experimental Channel. While we wait for Microsoft to release them, you can try fixing context menus on your PC with a simple tool called Windows 11 Context Menu Manager. It lets you disable entries you do not need, not only cleaning up context menus, but also making them significantly faster. Microsoft has already improved Windows 11's Start menu and taskbar, so hopefully it will address user criticism of the context menu as well. Stay tuned for new Windows 11 preview builds, which usually arrive every Friday.
    • If the drive/memory is soldered to the board, which it probably is, then it's a no from me
