I know that often people laugh at Cub fans, often because they really arent fans. Most Cub fans just do it because it popular and it really gives true fans a bad name. I just hate when I hear "Cub fans are so stupid" and things like that which neglect the millions of true BASEBALL fans. On ESPN radio saturday morning somebody said "its a shame what wrigley field has come to, it used to be a great place to watch a game", and yesterday when somebody ran on the field in the middle of an atbat it was never more obvious. It just a shame that im 21 and might never to be able to enjoy another game at the friendly confines.

I have no lcue what you're trying to say here, and if some idiot running onto the filed ruins your experience at a baseball game, then I'm guessing you weren't really ahving all that much fun to start with?
Do not let the actions of idiots, intetrfere with your fun of the game, or here's a better one, GET OVER IT!

Well people running on the field happens everywhere, i was just saying that reminded me everything people say about Cub fans. Would you want to take a 10 year old to a game a wrigley? When i was younger I went to about 15 games a year and many times i had beer get on me, and saw fights which honestly doesnt bother me because people go to have fun, and i had a lot of fun also.
My point in all this is Cub fans are often generalized as all being drunks who go to have fun and not really worry about the game and i just think its sad that it might be true. Not all Cub fans, but a lot.

If you go to the park to have fun, you mean to tell me some drunk is going to prevent you from having fun? When I have a son, I have every intention of taking to him to Cubs games. I don't care what types of peope are there. I've been to stadiums all over this country, unless you're in Florida, or Pittsburgh, where there's literally 17 people in the aprk, it's the same everywhere.
Stop your belly aching, it happens at every park, there are drunks at every park, there are idiots at every park, and there are fans at every single park in baseball. No need to get your panties in a bunch about it.
You think Boston or New York, or the Cell is any better, not so much.

Listen dude if you dont agree with me thats fine but dont act like im being stupid for an opinion that ive heard many people agree with. The fact that ive heard it so much is why im talking about it.
I have no problem with people going to the game to have acouple drinks and do whatever, ive done the same. My only concern is that wrigley field is become less and less a place to enjoy a baseball game. Its cool if you dont feel the same, but

First of all, don't think Wrigley is being singled out regarding the fans on the field. It happens at every baseball venue. What you have to understand is that ESPN is not the local source for baseball in our area and therefore they are in competition with the stations that do broadcast the games, namely WGN and WMAQ. Its in ESPN's best interest to downgrade anything connected with the Cubs and WGN so people turn it off and listen to them.
The #1 rated radio station in Chicago is WGN and has been for years, largely due to the Cubs broadcasts. ESPN deals with this the only way they know and that is to make people believe the Cubs' product is inferior and that there is something wrong with it. I've been going to Cubs games for 50 years and have been a season ticket holder for over 20. I have also visited othe ball parks. If you think what happens in Wrigley is bad, don't go to Fenway or Yankee Stadium because I've seen worse things happen there. Don't go to the Cell or Miller Park because I've see it worse there too.

Amen math teacher, I'm not exactly sure what this guy was expecting, or even what the point of this was, yes baseball stadiums tend to get a little rowdy, and Wrigley is no different than any other park.

The fans at the Soxs games are the fans that can't get tickets for the Cubs,so they have to settle for 2nd best.When has anybody or anyone on ESPN got anything right,their just like CNN,they only want to report the negative in something.Dude I hate to tell ya,rowdiness,drunkeness and fights goes on everywhere,I've seen people get maced,pepper sprayed and tazzered for acting stupid,but it didn't affect me one bit in having fun,the only thing that takes some off the fun outta the game is the ridiculous price to take a family to attend a game,back in the mid to late 80's I could attend a game in cincy and buy a field level ticket,a pop,a pretzel and a hot dog for right around $15.As far as the people running on the field goes,they think their entertaining the fans by running around on the field,but whats entertaining about it, is watching the local cops beat the crap outta them.
