It's Twitter, and people act like a team account is run by the GM, coaches and owner. Twitter should be a place where fans can communicate with the team, and be an outlet for you. Not just a promotional tool to push tickets and updates.

I guess I just expect them to act a certain way since no other team does what they do in regards to subtle trolling.

 

They can talk s*** now, because they won't be able to in a couple days. ;)

1. That's not true. Check out the Indians Twitter, check out the LA Kings Twitter, check out the Atlanta Hawks Twitter.

 

2. The Cubs have had the same tone on social media for the last 3 seasons.

The Cubs and Kaminsky exchange has been entertaining from both sides, not sure why we wouldn't want stuff like that on social media. Nothing malicious, just stupid fun. And I always love the Kings and CM Punk back and forth's during hockey season.

That account and Frank are clearly having fun with this, I don't see why anyone would ever have a problem with this. If it wasn't the Cubs, you wouldn't care if we're being honest.

 

It has the same tone as their fans do, which is probably why it annoys so much.

The MLB and Fox sports treatment of the cubs is insane and almost borders on negligent.

The rain out and delaying the announcement of the start time until 12 hours before is almost beyond belief.

 

They haven't played a single non-primetime game yet. It really is unfair for the other 6 teams.

There really should be some type of balance when it comes to scheduling. I didn't realize how unbalanced it was until I read the article. I really hope the Dodgers KO those f***wits.

 

I disagree. The fact is, people want to see the Cubs. That's why they are on prime time constantly.

 

Ratings = results here. Smart move by baseball/media to be doing this.

Normally I agree that ratings = results but they are doing it to the detriment of other teams. Give them the prime time spot but if you start f***ing with other teams to get that accomplish, that's when the line needs to drawn. If they really cancelled that f***ing game on Sunday so they wouldn't dig into the Cubs game that's f***ing wrong. I would say that for any team.

You are right. I apologize, didn't realize what had happened (just read the article). That is bonkers and not fair.

That's too bad. Last year I went to see Rush at the UC. My brother was in town and wanted really good seats. Stubhub was ridiculous, there were some pricey deals on Craiglist for tickets up front. I contacted a couple of people and told them we would pay them an extra $100 per ticket if they put the tickets on Stubhub. They wouldn't do it, so obviously phony. Wound up waiting Stubhub out and got 2nd row dead center for my final Rush show.

 

But everyone needs to be careful. Scammers are everywhere. Stubhub has a guarantee.

 

Father bought 5 Bulls tix off Stubhub last year (which I use often). One person backed out so we sold their ticket to a scalper.

 

Went to enter and got an error on their scanning machine. They took us to the back and told us the tickets were fake. They were about to escort us out of the building when the ticket person was called for an emergency elsewhere in the building. Luckily, we got to stay in the game

 

So, we got our money back from Stubhub but also made money by selling the extra. Paid to be at the Bulls game...I feel bad if that ticket ended up being sold.
