While observing baseball games, I comport myself with the highest degree of refinement and quiet dignity, as is the characteristic of all true Cubs fans, and I resent any insinuation to the contrary.

Correct, but since it's Joe's thing, we can't send him away.

As a matter of fact, I was thinking of supporting "joe" at the Cub's game no matter which side he chose to support.

Tuesday is fine with me, so count me in.
There was a feature review of the current show in yesterday's Tribune. The availability for Tuesday has dropped from excellent to good. I'm tempted to go ahead and get four tickets (assuming you're in, joe). Then, if sublime gets in touch, I can try to add another one.

jp can't do Tuesdays because of school, so it would be the four (five?) of us. joe?

Tuesday is fine with me. If I recall correctly, when we went to Second City with Thomas it was on a Monday or Tuesday night, and I called to get the tickets that morning without any problem. After the glowing review from the Tribune, however, there may be a rush for tickets.

Well, there are four of us, so we can each paint our bodies blue and spell out C-U-B-S on our chests in big red letters. I'm sure Walter and Swimpy will want to be in on that.

We've got four and can add a fifth for sublime. Here's the Tribune Review

What time does it start? I am leaving MN in the morning (pretty early I think) on Tues and it is about a ten hour drive. If its later I should be able to make it and not smell like fish.

Bad timing this year for me. Confused

Where are you right now, sublime? And what do you think of the rumors of Donovan McNabb going to Chicago?

JPB, That may be cutting it close. Are tickets available the day or night of? I am guessing that we are leaving around six in the morning but can not be certain. If you can get a ticket that day I could call you and let you know.


Gus, Still in Chicago but leaving for MI in a couple hours. I will be there til Mon. and Thurs I am leaving for the BWCA and will be there til Tues.

Mixed feelings about a Briggs/McNabb trade. Briggs doesn't want to be here and I am worried if he stays his performance will show it. McNabb would be great if he can stay healthy. It seems a good consistent QB is the key ingredient that da Bears are missing. If Turnoverasauras Rex could get it together that would be great but I am no longer holding my breath.

I'll check with the box office that morning. They've been selling out, but it's a Tuesday so we might get lucky.
