I have a couple Cubs/Astros bleacher tickets to next Wednesday’s game (August 15 at 1:20 CT), but, unfortunately, I won’t be able to use them. Rather than sell them, I’d like to give them to one of you. Who wouldn’t want to see a battle to the bottom?
Instead, here’s how I’m going to do it. See that there forlorn picture of Dale Sveum? It’s begging for a caption.
So, to win the tickets, this is all you have to do: head over to the BN Facebook page, “like” it, and drop a comment on this picture on the wall offering your caption. The comment with the most thumbs ups by Friday, August 10 at 2pm CT wins the tickets. It’s kind of like a democratic way of settling which caption is the best. (Or, which commenter has the most friends they can cajole into a thumbs up).
I’ll leave the tickets for you at will call, but make sure you respond to my Facebook message promptly if you’re the winner.
Because of the mechanics of this contest, you’ve got to be on Facebook to enter and win (my apologies). You can still offer your caption in the comments for fun and posterity, but you won’t be entered to win.
UMM??? why did I play Joe Mather tonight???/
OH MY GOD!! Not Another Player From Iowa!!
Why did I agree to this job
After recent callup Brooks Raley’s shellacking, manager Dale Sveum wonders, “Who can I call up next?”
I don’t live in Chicago, so I’m not trying to win the tix unless airfare is included.
Oy ve I signed up for this.
two more minutes and my dominoes pizza is free
I should have been in Boston
Oh crap, what’s my mom doing here? Bet she is pissed about that Dempster thing.
What you talkin about Theo
Dale is thinking….”4 K’s….Brett Jackson…You have got to be freaking kidding me? This is going to be a long last two months of the season!”
“Losing is a disease, as contagious as bubonic plague.”
“Hobbs…get back here”
Well played, sir!
Can we get win in quotes above? “Win” Astros-Cubs tickets?
Dale looks longingly at the Old Style man in the stands…
“When did I start coaching the Iowa Cubs….?”
“The Iowa Cubs sucked with all these guys…”
Jesus Christ will that Jackson kid please hit the ball already?
Dear Lord What’s Next!!!
“I hope that was only gas.”
“I don’t often win games. But, when I do, I drink Dos Equis…”
Like ^^^ lol
Momma said there would be days like this, but I had no idea how many she was talking about!
What the heck am I supposed to tell the media after this loss?
Jed, I said Adduci NOT Jackson!
Damn, why are we up right now? At this rate we’ll never catch the Astros in getting Appel.
Why do the players keep calling me, Quade?
