It doesn't make the loss hurt less when you say this before the game is over. There's no point in saying stuff like this, as you will just have people shove it in your face if the Sox do comeback to win.
This is actually true. Good post.

Just take the metra then the red line, its very easy.
On the weekdays the trains come every hour, then its like a 6 block walk to the red line (state street) then like a 15 minute ride.
I did this and it sucked. There was way too many people and the red line didn't get back downtown in time for me to catch Metra home. I had to wait almost 2 hours for the next train.
Nope. It costs an arm and a leg to park at the US Cellular. And you STILL have to walk far as hell to get to the stadium. Only the season ticket holders get to park in the actual parking lot now. Single ticket holders have to park off site WAAAAY over by IIT. That sucks big time. You figure if you're paying 23 dollars to park, you would at least get to park convienient next to the stadium. WRONG.
With all that being said though, I took a chance and took the Metra from the suburbs into down town, then took the Red Line to the park. That was the biggest freaking hassle... I'll just go ahead and pay the 23 dollars from now on.
Wasn't there talk of the Yanks getting rid of Melki Cabrerra earlier in the season? I think I remember someone here saying that he would just be another Brian Anderson - all defense and no stick at the plate.
I think that the best thing about this trade is KW basically telling the Tigers and the Twins... "You can take your Washburn and your OC and you can go f*** yourselves"...
I love it.
