DABearSoX Posted July 12, 2004 Share Posted July 12, 2004 just some things i saw on PTI today, i knew wilbon was from chicago but it was mentioned he is from the south side. After showing the Disco Demolitionhe metioned something about how the old place is gone and there is a great new stadium in its place. Kornheiser remarked after what do you know your a stupid cubs fan....then the big finish one of the comments from the dude man (forgot his name) "And wilbon your the only person that thinks US Cellular is a good field" I for one think they have turned that stadium around even if we had to give up our name.....

WHarris1 Posted July 12, 2004 Share Posted July 12, 2004 Yeah that was Statboy. What an ass clown. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dasox24 Posted July 12, 2004 Share Posted July 12, 2004 Yeah that was Statboy. I haven't watched that show in a while. I know he's doing Around the Horn now, but is Tony Reali still statboy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MurcieOne Posted July 12, 2004 Share Posted July 12, 2004 Tony Reali is cool, he's just not a chicago-boy and the common outsider thought about the Cell is that it is a piece of s***. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah he is cool but it's stupid to bash a stadium that you have probably never been to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalapse Posted July 12, 2004 Share Posted July 12, 2004 Isn't Reali from New York, he is a Yankee fan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MEANS Posted July 12, 2004 Share Posted July 12, 2004 and people shoot their loads over how great yankee stadium is, it has great history but it's still a dump....the cell is much nicer, but safeco takes the cake for a modern, clean stadium....just my 2 cents....

Brian Posted July 12, 2004 Share Posted July 12, 2004 $100 that Kornhieser and Stat Boy have never stepped foot in The Cell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qwerty Posted July 12, 2004 Share Posted July 12, 2004 and people shoot their loads over how great yankee stadium is, it has great history but it's still a dump....the cell is much nicer, but safeco takes the cake for a modern, clean stadium....just my 2 cents.... I agree safeco is as nice as it gets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MEANS Posted July 12, 2004 Share Posted July 12, 2004 I agree safeco is as nice as it gets. yes, I was fortunate in 2001 to go to a yankees game on a sunday then was flown to Seattle for work on monday, we got a tour of the stadium (walked the warning track) and got tickets for the tuesday game. It was Elvis night and all the Mariners players dressed like Elvis for their scoreboard photos!! It was soo funny to see ichiro and Pinella in Elvis garb. They wound up winning in 13 on a bases loaded walk. The big difference in the 2 stadiums for me was the fans, in yankee stadium they are so vocal (don't dare drop a foul ball) but in safeco they are so quiet (most of the time)...

aboz56 Posted July 13, 2004 Share Posted July 13, 2004 Reali can't hold Kellerman's jock strap and that's why ATH now sucks and I watch Kellerman and Holley on I, Max. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aboz56 Posted July 13, 2004 Share Posted July 13, 2004 $100 that Kornhieser and Stat Boy have never stepped foot in The Cell. More than that, cause they haven't. Kornheiser doesn't go anywhere anymore because he's scared to fly and I am willing to bet Statboy is a Yankee fan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nokona Posted July 13, 2004 Share Posted July 13, 2004 Reali can't hold Kellerman's jock strap and that's why ATH now sucks and I watch Kellerman and Holley on I, Max. How? Between the complete ass Kellerman and brace-face i can barely listen for two seconds. It's like Mariotti x 2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
israel4ever Posted July 13, 2004 Share Posted July 13, 2004 You guys have hit on what has been a sore spot of mine for years...the trashing of The Cell and the glorification of Wrigley. Wrigley Field is a f***ing dump! No parking, the food sucks, the lines in the bathrooms are way too long, the hallways are too narrow, obstructed seats, lousy sightlines, and from what I understand, the facilities for opposing teams are the worst in baseball. The Cell on the other hand has everything Wrigley doesn't. Great food, tons of parking, space to move about the concourses, awesome sightlines, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know that old comiskey had these, and maybe they have taken them out i havent been to the north side since i was like 6, but you have to piss in freakin troffs (sp?) i agree with your statement totally, why do you think soldier field was torn apart....they only keep wrigley around because of the revenue it brings in alone....where would the cubs organization be with out that stadium Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Socks Posted July 13, 2004 Share Posted July 13, 2004 Hey, Israel4ever, you hit the nail on the head. Wrigley field is awful. It is another example of how the media manipulates the brains of America's children. How charming, lovable losers, etc. Harry Carry. Whenever I meet a Cub fan, I always ask why, and they always have an answer that underscores how stupid they are. The USA has literally been manipulated, in a baseball context, by the media to be Cub fans, and for the life of me, I don't know why. They still cheer popups and last week when I saw a relay race of Cub fans on Waveland Avenue waving brooms in the air, I almost threw up, since the resident announcers thought it was sooooo charming. And funny. And symbolic of baseball fans everywhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmags Posted July 13, 2004 Share Posted July 13, 2004 speaking of cheering pop ups...did you hear berman?!?!?! question: why were you throwing kornheiser in this, he said nothing but: what do you know your a cubs fan... and statboy probably thinks our stadium sucks cause he works with marisnotti Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
