Forgive my venting .... I have a 9 year old son who is just getting into watching baseball. He's super excited about the White Sox this year.
Yet, MLB in it's great wisdom, puts Opening Day for the White Sox at 9:05 pm on a school night!! They talk about wanting to get young fans interested in the game and then they do something jack-assey like this. Ugh.
That said, Go Go White Sox!

When I was 9 I had already experienced the heyday of the Super Bowl and those really good teams.
Since then, well....
If I could go back in time and tell my 9 year old self what the future holds for the Bears I just don't know if I would've stuck with them.
Hopefully your son has better luck than us. Some of the best times I had as a kid was going to baseball games. Especially when I was in early high school and we'd take the train downtown and then the L to the Cubs games. You'd never let a kid do that now.

I completely agree with that ... I know teams don't seem to want a lot of day games, but opening day should certainly be the exception
