LIHoosier Posted February 18, 2016 Posted February 18, 2016 At least you can watch them in that sweet park...the stupid Braves are moving to the suburbs next year and there is no way that I am going to go there. For a week night game, start time 7pm, I will have to leave my house...in the city...by at least 3 or 4pm. It is going to be a nightmare. I would much rather watch a game in south Philly than the Atlanta suburbs. My uncle lives between Dunwoody/Chamblee and he doesn't plan on getting tickets to the new park either (Currently has a decent ticket package at Turner Field.) Quote

Naturalhoosier Posted February 18, 2016 Author Posted February 18, 2016 I'd rather drive the extra 20 mins to Baltimore than Philly. That's just me though. ;) Quote
mdn82 Posted February 18, 2016 Posted February 18, 2016 I'd rather drive the extra 20 mins to Baltimore than Philly. That's just me though. ;)Id rather drive the extra 600 miles and go to Wrigley. But that's just me. Quote
Scooter D Posted February 18, 2016 Posted February 18, 2016 I'd rather drive the extra 20 mins to Baltimore than Philly. That's just me though. ;) I did make that drive a few times when I lived in Philly. The best one, must have been back in 2002 or 2003. Made the drive down for a 7pm start. At about 7 the skies open up and it pours for a solid hour+. Game finally starts at about 9:30, ends up going 15 innings, walked out at about 2:30am and drove back to Philly. Got home around 4:30am. Will never forget that game. Naturalhoosier 1 Quote
JaybobHoosier Posted February 18, 2016 Posted February 18, 2016 no way, right? I'd be ticked. Just messing and wishing at the same time lol. Quote
Scooter D Posted February 18, 2016 Posted February 18, 2016 Id rather drive the extra 600 miles and go to Wrigley. But that's just me. Not me...Cubs fans are awful. Went to a Cubs-Cards game at Wrigley maybe 2 seasons ago. Sunday game, beautiful afternoon game in early September. 1pm start time, I leave Atlanta on a 10am flight, get to the park right before first pitch and we probably beat 2/3 of the fans to the park. Didn't fill up until the 3rd inning. Naturalhoosier and JaybobHoosier 2 Quote

Hovadipo Posted February 19, 2016 Posted February 19, 2016 Wow...just sad. Could be a traffic thing too though. 37 is pretty bad right now obviously. Quote
HoosierTrav Posted February 19, 2016 Posted February 19, 2016 Go Cubbies!!!! I'm pumped for this season. Not expecting a World Series by any means, but just excited knowing that we will be in the hunt for a few years. Nothing like Wrigleyville when the Cubs are in contention. mdn82 and Bobman1 2 Quote

I can't say I have seen it like that but I mostly only go to weekend games living 4 hrs away. Quote
Naturalhoosier Posted February 23, 2016 Author Posted February 23, 2016 Opening odds have Astros at 10-1 to win the World Series. The other teams have odds info too, but they don't really matter. Just kidding! A feel for the other teams that tend to get board support: Cubs 4-1 Yankees 14-1 White Sox 30-1 Reds 300-1 Braves 500-1 Phillies 500-1 Linky to the report. Quote
