Baseball is here again

A Off-Topic forum to discuss things that aren't related to the Amusement Park Industry.

Thank god. Baseball, my 2nd love after coasters has returned. I don't think this year will be anything special for the cubs and sox, though. Oh well.

The Brew Crew have been busy fixing some of the holes from last year. I think if Eric Gagne has a great year and Fielder/Braun keep hitting homers the Brewers can finally make the playoffs.

How many years have you cub fans said that at the beginning of the season and then, when its all over, you have to say WAIT TILL NEXT YEAR with your tail between your legs.

Half of so called "cub fans" are either there to catch some rays and visit the historical wrigley field or are drunks. Shows how much they care about the team or more importantly, the game itself. This might give you a hint.

^Okay, not to argue on this one, but i've been to Camden Yards, US Cellular (yearly), Wrigley Field (more than once a year), Jacobs Field, Fenway, and Busch Stadium and i have yet to see more rowdy and drunk fans than at the Cell. Honest to god, i was there last year and i witnessed two little kids trying to lift their dad off the ground because he was too drunk to pick himself up. And this goes for any ballpark. I know there were way more Camden Yards fans than Orioles fans there and the same goes for many other historical ballparks.

That being said, i'm excited for the season to come and whatever new ball park i go to this year....and i don't care if the Cubs lose every game, the Sox win every game, i'm just ready for an awesome season nevertheless! And in my honest opinion, in terms of fans and such, Orioles have the best....the people at Camden Yards are the nicest and most knowledgable of all fans! Actually, Cubs and Sox fans are the only ones that like to trash teams out of the parks i've been to....just an observation......

That depends which generation you're talking about. From all the ballparks I've observed, the cell has the most knowledgeable and I'd say that if I was a fan of any team, hones tto god. Thanks for not getting hostile with me like so many others. It shows you have a love of the game that so many don't.

^ You obviously have no clue on what your talking about.

I seem to remember two specific incidents where fans at "The Cell" beat down an Umpire and a First Base coach.

So you can show all the stupid videos of drunks you want.

Now, I did not forget the incident that happened at Wrigley Field, where Dodgers players brawlled with some fans, however that indicent was no where near severe as the two incidents that happen at "The Cell"

Galvan, I know exactly what I'm talking about. I've followed the game for as long as I can remember so you have a right to your team and I have a right to mine. Have fun waiting...Thats all I have to say here.

I also can't wait for baseball season. I can't wait to sit out there in the warmth with a hot dog and a pepsi. I am a sox fan, and I hope they play better this year.

Anyone who gets hostile with you over an opinion is a loser. :D Seriously though, i agree with LaffFan, i could really go for a Diet Wild Cherry Pepsi and a hot dog now...

It sucks that we couldn't keep Coco. But we should sign Braun, Weeks, Fielder, Gallardo, Hart to long term deals. I probably forgot some.
Let's see... 12 days til colonoscopy (appt got moved :D )
No school today :D

this should help you out demon_07


ust a baseball club, known as the Chicago Cubs
They haven't won anything, since 1908
It's like their fate is sealed, playing there in Wrigley Field
Fans pray and wait in vain, since 1908
Please Stop Believin'

Ivy growing on the outfield walls
Fans pee in horse troughs
They've got no stalls
Eamus Catuli
It says there in right
The years go on and on and on and on

Cub fans. drinking
All around the Friendly Confines
Yuppies, stumbling in the night
Bleachers, hot chicks, living for inebriation
Showing, great sets of ta-tas

Lou's kicking dirt all over the place
Zambrano's punching Barrett's face
Hendry paid millions for this year's team
Results will be the same

For a few short days, they're in first
But don't you know, these Cubs are cursed
Wait till next year never ends
It goes on and on and on and on

D-Lee, fighting
Couldn't land his girly punches
Don't give, Ryan Dempster the ball
Right quad, Soriano
Your heartbreak's just around the corner
Santo, still waits for the Hall!

Please stop believin'
And wake up from your dreaming
Lovable losers, they're the Cubs
Please stop believin'
For 100 seasons
It's Gonna Happen, Who You Crappin'
They're the Cubs
