Queen Prawn Posted April 6, 2007 Share Posted April 6, 2007 Figures - first game I get to watch and it is post-poned. I can't believe how freaking cold it is. After 70s and 80s in Texas, the cold feels all that much worse. My flight out of Houston last night was delayed 2-1/2 hrs due to high winds in Chicago. When we were landing the shearing was so bad we were almost knocked off of the runway. Not a good feeling when landing and feeling the plane moving sideways rather than forward.

TheChrisSamsa Posted April 6, 2007 Share Posted April 6, 2007 QUOTE(klaus kinski @ Apr 6, 2007 -> 12:03 PM) Conspiracy theory #1 Cancelled to rest the bullpen I'm okay with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalapse Posted April 6, 2007 Share Posted April 6, 2007 QUOTE(watchtower41 @ Apr 6, 2007 -> 12:20 PM) and #2 to give Burls and extra day before his next start. I'd be lying if I didnt think to say that these reasons played a part in the cancellation. Except for the fact that it doesn't. They're just going to skip Danks in the rotation so Buehlre will make his scheduled start on Tuesday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhiteSoxfan1986 Posted April 6, 2007 Share Posted April 6, 2007 Assuming there is no DH this weekend, there will probably be one at the Min series on July 5-7 as it's right before the all-star break. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitesoxfan101 Posted April 6, 2007 Share Posted April 6, 2007 Temperatures during the game tonight would be between 18 to 22 degrees with 15 to 30 MPH winds. No conspiracy theory needed, baseball really shouldn't be played in those conditions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrunkBomber Posted April 6, 2007 Share Posted April 6, 2007 Thats nothing...I went to the Bears/Vikings this year and it was like 10 degrees... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greasywheels121 Posted April 6, 2007 Share Posted April 6, 2007 Football and baseball aren't exactly supposed to be compared here. Football also doesn't have rain delays. Some sports can't/shouldn't be played in this kind of weather. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shoota Posted April 6, 2007 Share Posted April 6, 2007 (edited) haha, fair enough. I'll admit all the positive comments about Vazquez this past offseason have given me hope he will turn it around. Edited April 6, 2007 by shoota Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benchwarmerjim Posted April 6, 2007 Share Posted April 6, 2007 (edited) if youre going to build an outdoor stadium, make it with a retractable roof!

jackie hayes Posted April 6, 2007 Share Posted April 6, 2007 What's going on with other games? Milwaukee-Cubs still looks to be on. Seattle at Cleveland is just starting up. Beltre in short sleeves. Enjoy that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalapse Posted April 6, 2007 Share Posted April 6, 2007 Well they do have a retractable roof on Miller Park so I assume that game was never in jeopardy of being called. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jackie hayes Posted April 6, 2007 Share Posted April 6, 2007 Seattle-Cleveland is pretty funny to watch. Just came back from a delay for one pitch, only to delay again now. The visibility is crap with all the snow. Wacky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
