SSS Meet-Up 2009: Let's REALLY Finalize This
by homesickalien on Mar 4, 2009 10:31 AM CST
Email
PrintA few weeks ago, U-God started this discussion and I didn't feel any sense of finality from that Fanpost. We narrowed it down to a couple series, but it was more or less everyone just throwing out yay’s or nay’s or I can't legally drink yet during that series's....
I'd like to attend this outing since I will not be able to make Blog Night and slob Nate Silver’s knob with larry; but as most of you know, this requires me to plan in advance and buy a plane ticket and start losing massive amounts of weight.
That said, I am heavily considering flying home the weekend of May 15th, and rather than making it a quick weekend trip, extending it through the week and scrapping my entire July trip that I had previously mentioned being in the works.
The Sox are home against the Twins May 19-21, and then home against the Pirates for the weekend of the 22nd.
Since most of you are in Chicagoland and have the ability to be flexible on dates, how about we plan for either a game during the Twins’ series, or the Friday night game against the Pirates?
I’m impartial to the Twins series because…well, it’s the fucking Twins. We could sit on the 3rd base line and try to telekinetically kill Punto with Q!'s bat.
I’ll be attending at least one or two games that week regardless of whether any of you dickwads show up, but if we can really organize an outing, I think it would be awesomesauce.
I believe a poll is in order.
Pick a date if you plan on joining.
***Also! Since the discussion of head-count and formally buying "outing" tickets is now underway, please also "comment" if you vote, so we know how many serious people there are. Thanks for cooperating so we can finalize this shit.

I vote tuesday the 19th
mostly because I already have a ticket to that game.

hey dickwad, why aren't the summer dates part of the poll?
I don’t want my beer to taste like fruit or honey. I want pussy to taste that way.
Because if my trip is over that week in May, those other dates are pretty irrelevant to me. I figure if you guys seriously can't swing a May outing, you can do another one in July for those who can't....
I just can’t be so flexible and I am trying not to have to pay for a mid-summer flight (or two flights) when I have a big draw to come home the weekend of May 15th anyway…. My July ticket last year cost nearly $500. Trying to avoid that.
Sorry my poll dates do not jive with your own July trip to Chicago…
Either way, TSK, I know/hope I’ll be seeing you at at least one West Coast game this summer.

"a big draw to come home the weekend of May 15th anyway"
Seeing your father? Yipee!!!
Oh. Wait. You mean the Shawn Phillips concert at Fitzgerald’s on the 16th, don’t you?
Did you think to invite any of your little friends at SSS to experience Shawn “live” versus vicariously via your wordy FanPosts?

i was confused about whether people actually want to plan an "outing"
i.e., organize it in such a manner that we would all sit together and so on (would require at least 20 people, i think, to organize that) or just do something a little more impromptu, i.e. just buy tickets wherever and figure out where/how to meet later. obviously the former would require a bit more organization and the designation of a person to handle the whole thing through the white sox.

I think if we can get 20, let's do it right. If not, we can agree upon a section and individually buy tickets on the same day so we are at least around one another.

by the way, while i don't want to sway the vote or anything, but we should consider that choosing a weekday day game is really going to limit the people who can go to the game to the young and/or unemployed.
who i’m guessing would have no problem making any of the other games.
southsidesox.com - now the best place on the interwebs for chicago white sox analysis and discussion.
I did consider this. Which is why I threw in the Friday night as an option. Ideally, I'd be flying back to WA on Friday morning so I could finish my vacation off surfing, but I am willing to extend it a day if the community chooses the Pirates game.

okay. because i'd like to go but it's unlikely i'd be able to actually commit to anything other than the friday game.
and certainly not to anything that isn’t a night game. i’m guessing there are a few people out there like me. but this is democracy.

I assumed that would be the case....just cuz cip and I will be able to sip on some beer during Thursday's game, doesn't mean the rest of you can....

that's because i tried to organize it. just tell everyone i'm not going. probably will sell out a section.
and the group ticketing has some built in safeguards for such things.
southsidesox.com - now the best place on the interwebs for chicago white sox analysis and discussion.
i picked friday
i would also purchase a ticket for the other two night games, if they’re chosen, but i couldn’t guarantee attendance as readily.
southsidesox.com - now the best place on the interwebs for chicago white sox analysis and discussion.
friday the 22nd would be the only date that i could attend.
i’ll be out of the country until the 20th, and i’m pretty sure a day game on the 21st would be wishful thinking. i can’t guarantee my presence as of now on the 22nd, but i can guarantee my absence for any of the other dates.
Cashing checks and having sex.
and you're rich enough that you'd buy a ticket anyway.

i watch others.
new parents need to get out, too. seriously. if there are issues outlined below by joe, fine. work it out so she gets a time to go out later or for shorter periods (a few short lunches on saturday with the girls or something add up, too). asking either the mother or father to be around at all times is a good way to cause problems, not solve them. people need a break.

Father's usually aren't around at all times.
They go back to work pretty quickly. The problem is that the mothers are usually stuck alone with them most of the time for a couple of months. Fathers can help by giving her an hour or two break here or there to shower or nap or go out for lunch, but that doesn’t even come close to making up for the time spent at work, much less a hypothetical baseball game.
And maybe some wives are OK with a “I get to go out for the evening while you take care of the two week old kid, and in exchange you get to go out in three months when the baby can take a bottle or have up to six one hour Saturday lunches with your friends” trade. Mine wasn’t. If I even proposed it she would have told me that the one hour lunches and going out with her friends was a good idea, and perhaps it would make up for nearly 3% of the hardship she was having to go through by staying home with the kid, breastfeeding three times in the middle of the night, etc. while I got to go to work most of the day five times a week and sleep most of the night.

Postulated by someone who will be able to someday identify how inconsequential 5 hours away from a newborn is...
I’m not asking e-gus’ wife to be there. She doesn’t have to leave the child for him to go out on a Friday night while the babe is probably just going to be asleep.
Give and take, WU. There will be a day (maybe not in the first month or two, fine) that she wants to go out and e-gus will be home for the babe.
It’s up to him ultimately and I understand if he can’t swing it – just saying that it does not seem like a huge deal.

It's not the newborn.
It’s the mother. Kids that young probably aren’t on a sleep schedule. So the dude goes to work all day (leaving his wife with the kid), comes home, kisses them both on the cheek, and then takes off for the evening? What happens when the baby has a tantrum at 9:00 PM and there is no choice but for the exhausted mother to have to deal with it? Yikes. My wife would be watching out the upstairs window with shit to throw at me when I arrived on the doorstep.

Understandable. I realize my opinion comes from a lack of children and a deeper love for baseball than most women, so I just feel like I'd be more understanding to make an exception this one night.
I’d probably be less understanding if my husband wanted to go golf or something like that…I am biased because it’s baseball.
e-gus could even agree to be up for first baby shift Saturday morning, if his wife was up for a compromise.
Of course, it is all up to him and how he’s feeling come May 22nd.

It's hard to realize...
…how difficult (a lot of) kids are in advance. The main problem the first few months is that the mother literally counts the minutes until the father comes home from work and can relieve her. Compounding that, most newborns have a really crummy time from about 4-6. If you had to put up with a fussy kid for that long, and then the “calvary” stayed for all of 10 minutes before leaving again, it could be a nightmare. And the whole “Saturday morning compromise” doesn’t really help, (1) because he’s probably on Saturday morning duty anyway, and (2) it’s trading kid duty when it’s not really needed for kid duty when it is.
I had to do a two-day business trip when ours was about six weeks old. Both nights my wife called and yelled at me about once an hour until midnight. I don’t blame her (though I did at the time) — she was in a miserable situation without any help and it really, really sucked.

which is why you follow my advice above - call in the calvary.
again, i’m not going to lecture people on what they should be doing. if gus’ wife isn’t going to let him go, she isn’t going to let him go – and perhaps for good reason(s).
Join us at southsidesox.com in our "Page Views for The Cheat" campaign - to defeat butt cancer.
I know, not saying you are lecturing.
Just keep in mind that not everyone lives close enough to relatives that they can “call in the calvary” (we didn’t). I was the calvary, and if I wasn’t showing up at 6:00 for my shift, bad things were going to happen.
I guess the bottom line is that all kids — and all parents — are different, and when you combine a more difficult kid with a parent who doesn’t really have the patience or tolerance to deal with a more difficult kid for very long, the other parent really shouldn’t count on being able to do anything except doing everything within (usually) his control to make sure the kid stays alive and the (usually) mother stays reasonably sane.
There is a reason, after all, that I’ve been skiing all of three times in two seasons while living an hour from Winter Park. Prof. Dr. Mrs. Joe loves her daughter very much, but they really are best alone together in limited doses — and if truth be told, it’s always been that way.

I hear you and I don't pretend to have experience other than years of babysitting newborns up through teenagers...
but I don’t entirely sympathize with a woman who wants to be a mother and then complains about being a mother when her husband wants to make plans for a few hours one evening.
There are plenty of women in this world doing that job (mothering) on their own and working job(s) themselves during the day/night/any available moment in order to support her kids. A stay-at-home mom who complains of exhaustion should probably consider how hard it could be.
While it is probably annoying/frustrating for a woman’s husband to come home one night and leave right after to go to a game, it is not really asking all that much ultimately. It’s one night. A few hours. If she’s going to whine about that, maybe she should have done more thinking before becoming a mom.
I’m being honest here because I witnessed first-hand what a mother who works two jobs and still manages to single-handedly schlep her kids to piano lessons/sports practices/friends’ houses, etc, looks like.
Newborns may not have ideal or set sleeping schedules, but for real….one night? Fucking deal with it. It’s your job.
...and then some depressed fucked-cake eating.
by homesickalien on Mar 13, 2009 1:01 PM CDT up reply actions
Couple of things.
1.) We’re talking about true newborns (i.e., less than three months old). Basically, the mother almost always has to be within five minutes of the kid because of an unpredictable feeding/sleeping schedule. This in turn is very, very stressful for some women, and without someone there to help as much as possible, it can be a disaster. Very few women work (one or two jobs) or schlep their other kids anywhere during this time.
2.) See what I said above about all kids and all parents being different. Maybe gus’s wife is totally fine with him taking off for an evening and leaving her alone with the kid (setting aside relatives who can help). My sister and her husband went away for the weekend when their daughter was two months old (she was bottle-fed by then, and my parents lived close by). My wife, on the other hand, probably wouldn’t let me go to a baseball game for the evening NOW absent a very compelling reason (i.e., it would have to be work-related and mandatory), and our kid is nearly three — and she frequently takes off on her own trips and outings by herself (she cites the six week trial I had when the kid was about eight months as justifying everything she does, but if truth be told it really is just that she recognizes that I can better handle — and even like — time alone with my daughter).
The point is that you really don’t know how the kid is going to be and how the parents will handle it until he/she is on the outside.
by BridgeportJoe on Mar 13, 2009 1:21 PM CDT up reply actions
Agreed. I was not speaking to gus specifically because I don't know what his personal situation entails/will entail. He knows his wife's limits, which will be different for each couple and child, no doubt.
Which is why I’d probably, if I were him, mention the possibility of this outing now (months in advance), with the additional thought that “I know our baby will be new and a handful, so if the day comes and you don’t think you can handle it, I’ll stay home for you.”
Done.
I also identify the differences in newborns vs 3-month olds vs 1-year, 2-year, etc….and realize the necessity of monitoring such a wee one so closely (SIDS, for example, undoubtedly will keep parents up and exhausted/fearful/stressed quite a bit).

Agree with most of your thoughts
BJ . . . and nobody ever tells you of how difficult a 2nd child is (at least if they are fairly close together in age). All those ‘breaks’ you describe above never happen and you both are exhausted from working and then you each have a child to take care of at home 24/7. It is certainly worth it, but you better be ready to sacrifice everything for those kids.
1.) Not everyone has a relative near enough to help.
2.) It can be very difficult for a nursing mother to go out for any appreciable length of time during the first month or two.
They’re not always on a set feeding schedule by then, nor will many of them take a bottle that soon.
I can’t remember when Prof. Dr. Mrs. Joe left ours alone for the first time, but I’m pretty sure it wasn’t in the first couple of weeks.
Of course now she doesn’t like the kid so much, so she’ll take off for a weekend or a conference and leave us alone (she’s even going to Europe by herself for most of July). Which is nice, because a daddy with his little girl is like heroin for the hot college chicks where I live. Seriously, when we go by ourselves to get some lunch or something, I usually have at least one young and attractive twentysomething come by to tell me how cute we are/she is.

Totally worth the internal damage we probably did to our stomachs. Fantastic burger, awesome onion rings and washed them down with a couple of guinnesses before heading over to the beach.
Alexander Hamilton shot Alexander Hamilton...
e gus.... it's 4:30 in the am
been up and down all night with our son, and i can tell you honestly…. it’s all give and take.. When my wife is tired, i answer the bell…. little things…… the little things you do for her are remembered…. and honestly… it gets to the point where you like doing them…. I love puting my son to sleep…. he isn’t even 1 but he gives hugs and kisses and he knows the meaning behind it…. If you do all that is asked of you. going to a game won’t be a big deal… and if it is… who cares… your spending time with your offspring….. and if you want…. i will bring my boy along…. for shits and giggles…
It's called Sex Panther by Odeon. It's illegal in nine countries... Yep, it's made with bits of real panther, so you know it's good.
They've done studies, you know. 60% of the time it works, every time.
Nice, ED. :)
Completely avoiding saying anything further so as not to appear that I am trying to have the last word…because I don’t think this was an argument, so I don’t think a last word is even needed….
My other thought was: e-gus may very well just WANT to be there on May 22nd. We’ve all been discussing him being allowed to go…but maybe he just would rather be with his baby…
And that is cool too.
:)

So where do we stand for this
5-22 night game v Pirates?

New poll is up! Vote for your preferred viewing location on the field.
Let’s plan on having our spot reserved by this week’s end.
Yeah!
...and then some depressed fucked-cake eating.
i'm okay with anything besides the upper deck.
Cashing checks and having sex.

Anything besides the upper tank is fine by me
Anyone for a before game TailGate..? or are we just meeting at a specific gate..? Jimbo’s ..? Mitchell’s Tap is my favorite…. of course it was better when it was Puffers…..

Tailgating details can be worked out after our section gets reserved...preferably through an email distribution list I'm creating for the goers.
I like getting to the park for the gates to open to catch some batting practice and what not…
But I’m sure there will also be those among us who arrive around 7 and meet us in the seats.
We can iron this stuff out once the section is determined (I’ll let the voting play out a couple days) and I have emails from everyone (so I can start emailing more details to the group in a more private forum).

Ha....Jimbo's was comically awkward
I don’t think I’ll be setting foot into that place unless I’m with 10-15 white people.
Confusion breeds success. If they don't know each other, opponents can't have strategy. GENIUS.

yeah. we'll have to be sure to recruit some white people for this event.

10-15 cool white people, we're still screwed
Unless WTGTD brings his posse.

i am in for some booz before the game
but yea, let’s just wait for the “next round” of this to get working on details …
ugh, I lied
I just realized that I actually have plans on this weekend.
I have a flip cup championship to defend.
Yeah, and I got a sock drawer in dire need of some rearranging. :-)

I may actually be able to make it on 22nd
Its a night game right?
"...and when it comes to baseball, we have two favorite clubs: the Go-Go White Sox...and whoever plays the Cubs!!!"
This is officially the thread that never dies.
I’m going to throw up a new fanpost with the (now)official participants’ list and what to do next… because it’s super hairy in here and obviously the key information has been lost in the rolls of lardy like a fallen Cheeto gets lost in my 2nd stomach roll sometimes.
...and then some depressed fucked-cake eating.
By the two-week rule, yes it is. Yet another reason why I'm taking this into a new fanpost.

DO IT!
I’m lost as to my responsibilities. Also, anyone putting up out-of-towners, or do I have to take the train to Mundelein (my sister’s place) in a drunken stupor?

I'll see if I can't help ya, WU. I'll probably be staying at my friend Mike's apartment in the city. He just moved there so I'm no sure of available space...but it's just an el train away.
I’m going to try to get him to take me to the airport the next day too, in case you wanted to plan your return trip for Saturday AM.

I may stay until Sunday to see the Goddaughter, too.
Great offer – if the wife disapproves the whole weekend away I might take you up on it.
I’ll cover the deposit, if necessary. Give me details. And I’m at work with no access to home e-mail/FB.

Just had a lengthy discussion with the ticket people - put section 106 on hold...but need a $200 deposit by Friday (total is looking to be about $760 - that's exactly 20 people, $38/ea).
larry – I’m emailing you in a minute to seek advice.
I do not want to be charged for it.
