BigSqwert Posted August 23, 2007 Share Posted August 23, 2007 I wish they would make a call on this game soon. Would hate to go all the way to the park and have it called. Looks like another line of storms approaching from the west. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg The Bull Luzinski Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 The only reason this game has not been cancelled yet is Mr. Reinsdorf is trying to milk a few extra dollars out of all the Boston fans at the concession stands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have a winner!! Only reason it hasn't be canceled yet is financial, there is no way they could play tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AWhiteSoxinNJ Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 I think there going to play because at this time during the year, its hard to find make up dates without having doubleheaders... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IlliniKrush Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 Tarp on, pouring hard again. If the weather wasn't supposed to be terrible tomorrow they would have already scheduled the DH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barnes Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 The funniest part is when the field lights flickered and some went out... and then pops up on the screen, "We should have White Sox baseball in 45 minutes!!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barnes Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 CHICAGO (AP) -- Heavy rain and powerful storms forced the postponement of Thursday night's Boston Red Sox-Chicago White Sox game at U.S. Cellular Field. The game was called after a wait of 2 hours, 19 minutes. It will be made up as part of a split doubleheader Friday starting at 2:05 p.m. EDT. All right, who's going?

Dick Allen Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 (edited) This was obvious from the get go. Just like the "rainout" when the Yankees were in town and there was hardly drizzle this one gets called right about the time beer sales would have stopped if the game had started on time. At least it rained this time. Waiting for 2 hours was ridiculous. Edited August 24, 2007 by Dick Allen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitesoxfan101 Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 The White Sox, as their rich tradition suggests, screw the fans over by making them sit there 2 hours for a game that never had a shot at starting. And boy was it cute how they said "this game will start!" a couple times on CSN too, liars. Then again, any of the fans that showed up tonight are on the hook for being idiots too, nobody could have really thought they'd start tonight. And yet again, the man screws it up for tomorrow. We schedule a doubleheader for tomorrow, despite the fact that the forecast is severe weather and rain most of the day and then it's going to be clear and cool Saturday AND Sunday. Good luck getting even 1 game in tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoxAce Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 Just for the record it wasn't the Whitesox officials call on this one. It was the crew chiefs since this is Boston's last series here and also considering the weather is going to be s***ty again tomorrow. They wanted to wait it out as long as possible to try and get it in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baines3 Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 I wasn't a bit surprised that this one got rained out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 Supposed to go to the night game tonight, but with rain in the forecast, I hope it just starts pouring now so that I don't have to take the journey to the Cell, only to have to turn around when it's called.

I am looking forward to going, but not if it will be delayed 2 hours and then not played. I think we'll know more this afternoon. The day game could also screw up the night game.

Yeah, it's not exactly "screwing" the fans, because they're not forcing you to buy the food or beer... but you can't help but wonder when you hear the vendors saying "last call"and about 10 minutes after that they call the game. It just feels like they know the game has been called, but they wait it out for that little bit longer to rake in some cash. This happened with the Yankees game as well, but with that, at least they had the Bulls on the big screen so it was somewhat entertaining. Oh well... they can't control the weather.
