Speaking of comcast, they raised their internet rate to $45 per month here. Is there anyone out there in the Sangamon area who knows of an equivalent alternative to comcast?

Dang it….they tried to stop me from slinging it here. Now I’ve got to find another identity.

Massa was fastest in the morning session at Magny-Cours, with the Renault doing well in the afternoon. BMW was disappointing in light of the 1-2 finish Canada, running no higher fifth.
Oh, I’m sorry. I misread the post. I thought this was about sports that matter.

Has anyone actually attended to a cubs/sox matchup? Talk about your hostile environment. I’ve had to take a few years off.

The bleachers at the Sox park during a Cubs vs. Sox game, is alot like the atmosphere in the Capitol. Alot of screaming and yelling, with little effect on the result of the game.

3-1 Sox bottom of 3. Teddy had a rough top of 3.

Comcastic, I have not used it, but there is a service called Xanadoo in sangamon that advertises a now cheaper rate. They are a completly wireless intrnet provider.

Lurker, I went a couple of years ago at Wrigley and it wasn’t bad. I didn’t hang in the bars afterward.
The worst was when the Yankees came to Wrigley in 2003. Lots of New Yawkers displaying the worst stereotypical behavior you could imagine. Saw a couple of instances where Chicago’s Finest enthusiastically and vigorously removed a couple of louts to the cheers of the home fans.

Blago’s got to be at the Friendly Confines today, no? Watch out for the falling concrete, guv!

At least Chicago teams have people at the game. A moment of Silence for K.C. Royal fans out there…..

The new video competition act requires comcast to give you your choice of appointments and a four hour window. Its enforceable by the Attorney General. Maybe you should file a complaint?
From Citizen Action - Illinois:
“Requiring all companies to offer customers a choice of guaranteed times for installation
and service appointments, which must either a specific time or, at a maximum, a four hour
time block during evening, weekend and normal business hours;”

Heh, I got away from baseball for an hour to watch Jerry Springer. Now I’m back. Hmm I should see what the score is right now!

Will there be a meeting of the White Sox caucus next week in Springfield when the legislature is back in session?

Is Kenny Chesney from Chicago?
My nominee for the worst 7th-inning stretch singers: the WAAAZUP guys from Budweiser. I think they should stop it or just play the organ.

Man if it wasn’t for me being on this PC and not paying attention to the WGN broadcast I’d actually notice it was a tie game in the 9th!

Ramirez homers to win the game. I thought Ramirez played for the Sox?
