I’m also a big Cubs fan but hate Wrigley Field. I’d love to see another stadium built somewhere else with a parking lot and it easy to get to. I do get frustrated about peoples comments about Cubs fans in general. How do you know people are just there to party, how do you know that the fans don’t care about winning? The Cubs have been in a major funk over the last month and I hear an awful lot of booing on the North side. I find it arrogant that people make those kinds of comments. When you have a large amount of people in one space there are going to be certain percentage that will be there for the wrong reasons. I feel it’s the same on the South Side. I could also say that Sox fans are fair weather fans. They win the world series and their fan base increases. I hope that anyone that makes the move to the south side stays there.

Hmmmm…but they are winning, so there is a point to go to the games. Also, I doubt you would be cheering at the wrong times which seems to characterize many who go to Wrigley. Moreover, perhaps you would keep from catching a foul ball that would lead to the other team getting an out.

Good point about Wrigley…I’ve heard before that if people stopped coming to the games, the Ownership might actually feel it necessary to put a winning team on the field. If it is sold out regarldess of the product…what’s the motivation? Not for the love of the game thats for sure.
