Guest JimH Posted January 29, 2004 Share Posted January 29, 2004 I'm led to believe the whole Vanderburg article was a big conspiracy piece, written right before SoxFest, on purpose. Oh, and Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C.Rector Posted January 29, 2004 Share Posted January 29, 2004 Exactly. I have talked to people about this and most people that were around say that this was a sox town until the early 80's. The upperdeck in Wrigley was closed down for most games through the 70s becuase they couldn't draw enough. I don't know if this is totally true, just going by what I have been told by people I have discussed this with. Would anyone like to share their knowledge of this? That's a lot of nonsense. Chicago has been a Cubs town since the late 60's. Ever since 1981 when Reinsdorf bought the team, the White Sox have almost always won more games than the Cubs. The whole idea that Chicago went from the Sox to the Cubs despite the Sox being a better team most years is sheer nonsense. Its just another fallacy dreamt up by the fans who dump on the ownership.

I should be in rare form No, someone who's fond of conspiracy theories said it was printed by the Trib as a conspiracy, since they own the Cubs and SoxFest is this weekend. And that lifelong Sox fan Vandenburg is writing this only to please his Tribune Co. bosses. Oh, and Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
