25% chance I'll be there.   If I do, does the good doctor want to buy a Blacksox a beer?

In 2005 we went to all 3 games in Denver.  Last time the Sox swung this direction Igot to see  Buehrle pitch.  Hopefully something worthy  of those last experiences will take place.

I am not sure if meeting Blackie and Pete Ward would meet thatstandard or not.

I won't speak for Blackie but in my case you'd likely be lowering your standards.

In case anyone is wondering what happen to the photo of the Comiskey Park shower, the site where it is stored (photobucket.com) is having problems.  The photo of the "young JhonJeter" will return when photobucket is fixed.

no one in the photo was the real life young JJ.  When I first posted the pic about five years ago, I commented the kid flashing the peace sign was probably  what a young JJ was like as a youth.  JJ said it wasn't him but it did remind himself of a young JJ.  JJ liked the photo and cropped the face to use as his avatar for a time so when he died we put in up again as a tribute to him

Congratulations on noticing the animated radar gif is stuck on January 25th.  I wondered when someone would finally notice it.  I'm disappointed in method in not finding it as when this forum first opened he and JJ scoured every bit of this site looking for mistakes or hidden easter eggs to bring to my attention.   No it can't be fixed.  The radar gif was feature from the tribune site and  when they revamped their site, they abandoned the radar so I have no way to fix it.  I've looked a few times for another active radar that would work here to replace it but so far I've come up empty.

I just noticed the Buehrle Day stuff at the bottom of the page, below the stock footage of January Weather Radar.    Very cool.

Before anyone asks what happened to many of the photos, here's the explanation:

http://www.bbc.com/news/technology-40492668

https://www.theregister.co.uk/2017/06/30/photobucket_charging_400yr_3rdparty_pgs/


Without warning, Photobucket,com has changed their terms of use and eliminated "3rd Party Hosting" privileges from their free accounts.  They now require a "Plus 500" account which costs $400 a year for 3rd party hosting.  Needless to say unless they do a 180 on their policy change, I'll be looking for another site to host those photos.

With the regular season coming to an end, the Today's Game - 2017 topic will soon be locked.  I'll leave it open until Thursday and then it'll be locked until next spring.

The 2017 MLB Playoffs / World Series topic is now unlocked and ready for posting.

Happy holidays to you too.

Now, why is the edgy tribute to John Jeter replaced with a positively Cubish animated character?  Part of the reason I enjoy hanging out with guys is there are a lot of grown women out there that find this kind of thing cute. Most of them in the greater Chicago area are fans of the Chicago National League ball club. I do not like that type of woman nor do i find this cute, plus I am not 7. It is time to remove the Jeter trubute banner but please give me classic, elegant or edgy, not juvenile. 

Thanks!  Merry Christmas!

Careful what you ask for. 

Hope you enjoy the 2001 Topps Heritage card of your all-time favorite player in its place.

It's a classic!  ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Ohhh, I saw the picture of Foulke and figured he died or something. Now I know why it is posted.
