Watch it DDD, the sox do no wrong, pay up or shut up pal, the white sox are cutting edge when it comes to marketing their product.

One thing I noticed about the Sox is an absolute lack of give away days. Do those days cost the team anything? If not then it is just the failure of the marketing department not to get sponsorships for some free stuff. I look at the Cubs schedule and more than half the games are sponsored.

Every giveaway is sponsored usually and I think you are right, they do not have them often.

Sox decide to cut down on the giveaways because the lack of attendance and they were tired of throwing away 9000 bobble-heads,calenders etc. What company wants to sponsor a giveaway knowing that the Sox fans don't show up anyway!

Lack of attendance? They drew 3 mil last year, its because they dont give a crap about their fan base.

What's the Braves excuse for drawing just over 2.7M last year?

Sorry, but Brooks Boyer makes it almost too easy.

Frank, thats a little scary that you read my post and responded within a minute of me posting it? I know you love to jump on my typos and that's fine, but I have to ask is this just a coincendce on the timing as it seems you respond awfully quick when I post?

The white sox are nothing more then best of the bad. They lost 2 out of 3 to the yankees, indians and will split again with the orioles, they beat a tiger team that sucked at the time, so who have they beat? Get all excited, but when the season is over they are still a 78 win team, yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay. Go swish, he is so cool and cute, so........cub like.

Mine!? :? Sorry I don't work for either side of down. But it is interesting to see all the intelligent responses from the board. Brooks needs to come up with a "Map to the Cell" promotion or "Dress as an empty seat" promotion. Maybe that will help all those loyal Sox fans fill the park!

Way to support your team!!!! :oops:

You could help increase the intelligent responses on this board by actually making one here. I only care about the Sox attendance for one reason. I can get a ticket currently to a Sox game for 1/3rd of the price as a game at Wrigley.

Unless you are making money off of the ticket results at Wrigley, it's a pretty stupid thing to brag about.

Maybe he is. He could work, or could have worked, for the Tribune Company. Judging by the posts he's made so far here, he would fit right in at the Cubune Tower.

Just because you log in under 1200 different usernames to post the same BS does not make your points any more salient, Riles.

Ironic that you would post that while your avatar is Lou Piniella sitting in front of the backdrop for the 2007 NLDS.

At least the past I'm living in invovles a World Series Championship. Considering the avatar you have, were you more impressed with Chris Young's homers, or Ted Lilly's glove toss?
