Nothing better than a solid awkward silence during a live TV broadcast. I realize no one will believe me when I say this, but I was actually watching this game when this happened. ESPN, you so funny homophobic.
Again gracias to Harrison.
The White Sox have decided to change U.S. Cellular field’s hours to 24 hours a day…or something like that. For a relatively measly $500,000, the Chicago White Sox have agreed to a deal that will change all of the start times of the next three season’s home games from either 7:05 or 7:35 to 7:11. Get it? 7-11? Yea, so now every time a White Sox game time is announced, the announcer will have to say 7:11. Reminds me a lot of the millions of dollars that are wasted on stadium branding rights every year. So I’m not sure if this is a brilliant new way to promote a brand, or a waste of a perfectly good half million dollars. I think I’m leaning towards the latter.
