I completely agree, however, you should be aware that the weekend weather in Chicago was brutal. Rest assured, the several thousand no-shows were because of the rain, wind and temperatures in the 40s. Yesterday, after the Padres loaded the bases and the Cubs threw the two consecutive wild pitches and the score was 5-0 in the 6th, we left. Although prepared with long underwear, layers, down jackets, etc., when you're team is playing like that, you're COLD. We left after the Cubs meekly went out in the bottom of the inning. Good idea? I'd say so. Final was 9-0 Padres. However, somehow, I believe if it was sunny and 70, FinsUp99 wouldn't have given up those tix.
