Hello All!

[fatmox]

Hey All,

Just wanted to say hi!

Joined the site a few days ago, just getting around to introducing myself.

I am 31, live in Philly, married with a 12 year old princess!

I have been a Cubs fan since I was 7. My grandpop got me on the wagon, and haven't jumped off since.

I get alot of hell for living here and being a Diehard, but that's just Philly for ya!

I will be attending Wrigley for the first time in April this year. I have only missed maybe 8 Cubs games here vs the Phillies in the last 15 years. (Ever since I got my drivers license!)

I work from home with a small screen printing/decal business I own, so I get to watch every televised Cubs game during the year! :)

I really look forward to having fellow Cubs fans to chat with. I am sure my wife will appreciate it also! LMAO!

Til next time,
Matt

Welcome on! We'll try to make you feel closer to Chi-town here!

Thanks girl!

I printed out all your suggestions for my wife to read from my other post! :)

I visited your MySpace, your son's adorable!

Welcome to fogpog! So are Philly fans as bad as people say they are? :p Look forward to chatting with you. Nice avatar by the way. :)

Thanks Scuba. I made it myself! LOL!

Philly Fans are Philly Fans.

They don't know what it's like to stick it out. No matter what sport, when they're doing well it's all you hear about. When they're not doing well, the talk is trading this person, firing that person and moving to another city!

They just don't get how someone can love a team through thick and thin and be optimistic.

Welcome to fogpog, fatmox. I also suffer like you do, except that I'm in Diamondback country, but luckily they don't have any diehard fans! :p Welcome to the board. Glad to have you here.

Thanx! He's my pride and joy! AND he's a die hard Cub fan. He knew all the players names when he was 2 (including Grudzelaniek and Farnsworth!):)

If I think of any more suggestions, I'll let you know. I'm not from Chicago, so I passed on things I have learned along the way.

Oh, if you get into the park in time, they will let you go stand right up behind the infield wall to try to get autographs up until an hour before gametime. I got Sean Marshall, Bob Howry and Matt Clement's autographs that way.
