Cowley broke the news first.
Are the Sox the only team that will be affected by bad weather or is this going to be a widespread thing?
I bet THE cubs would not be affected BY bad
weather heh heh

I cant go Tuesday.
Hope and change.
KC affected too
It's the same fucking weather Tuesday.
Wednesday says 51, Thursday 48. That's acceptable. I'm going Thursday too.

Reinstate the draft
I think it may be slightly better Tuesday. The wind is probably going to be worse tomorrow.It's the same fucking weather Tuesday.

If Tuesday has less wind, and just morning flurries, they probably did the right thing changing it now.
fuck

Yea! Work tomorrow!
What's gay is it's been almost exactly the same every day for a while now, kind of chilly but usually sunny and mild. Totally doable outdoor drinking weather.

fuckin tim is trying to break our date
This shit should have been today anyways. Opening day should be a fuckin' sunday.
If you mean, "the Sox should have won the World Series to get the Sunday night game", then yes. Otherwise, no.
I just realized I'm going to have Tuesday off since I went in on Saturday.
This actually makes my boner rise.
Nobody cares about your shitty boner

My boner only is shitty when I'm fucking guys like Yoda in prison.
Opening day on a weekday is retarded.
See you clowns on Tuesday
It has been a great, roller coaster of a season for the Sox. Slow start, explosion and now possible riding off into the sunset. Lots of action and suspense!
not sure if I can make it.
anyone want to buy my tickets?
Sunday is the day of rest
According to Reifert: LinkMonday's Opening Day game between the Chicago White Sox and Kansas City Royals has been postponed due to the forecast of snow, cold and high winds and rescheduled for Tuesday at 1:05 p.m. Scheduled Opening Day festivities now will take place on Tuesday.
and
to old whore planet earth
Gaia ruining my day yet again.
My W-L prediction may be apt if this weather cancels a game
Over/under on games cancelled or delayed this month? I say 5.
Thursday will be nice when Whitesox901 is there...
I'm glad we'll all be spared that retarded off day after the first game of the season.
never understood that.
yo tambien.Thursday will be nice when Whitesox901 is there...
fuckin tim is trying to break our dateYou asshole. All I said was that Mike had an extra and that I could go with him on Tuesday since it sounded like you couldn't make it.
So, what's the deal?
IWMB: Right now, im in kick the fucking ball off and drop the fucking puck mode.
zmz: :douchechilling :
Stupid Al Gore.
Its there because of days like Monday, so they can re-schedule opening day the next day if there's postponing
And of course now it is looking like it will not be snowing in any noticeable amount today.
Way to go Sox!
eh, still pretty crappy out. tomorrow will be sunnier, warmer and essentially all the snow will have melted and dried up.And of course now it is looking like it will not be snowing in any noticeable amount today.
Way to go Sox!
i actually applaud the sox this time around. they could have gone for the easy cash grab by letting people in the stadium for an hour and then calling the game. that would have jacked things a lot more. by calling it the night before, a lot of people can alter their plans without great difficulty. true, some people took monday off and can't switch to tuesday but on the whole, this appears to be the right decision. i doubt they would have played today.
I understand what they were thinking, but really, they've been in this city long enough to know that forecasts change quickly. The original plan to make the decision at 8AM would have given people time to change their plans if need be, yet still taken into account another 14-16 hours of weather info. I suppose they can say the field was simply not playable no matter what, but again, I've seen them play in some awful weather.
And yes, this day is awful, but no different than plenty of ugly April and Sept/Oct. days that they've played in.
I expect you will see at least 8,000-10,000 empty seats tomorrow.
It just seems like every time they call something that far in advance the weather never does what they apparently expected it to do.
A decision to cancel it at 8 AM today would have been a major pain in the ass. People will have already gotten up late for work and those driving from further locales would have already been on the road.
the sox have taken a lot of heat in the past for bringing people in and then cancelling games. i have no problem with the way they handled this one.
I'm with miller.
i just woke up and it looks gorgeous outside. put the game back on so i can hear people who already sold their tickets complain.
