Cubs–White Sox rivalry Puns

Brewers fan, 23 years old, too young to remember the AL days. I've heard that the old rivalry with the White Sox was vigorous, yet Bud Selig wanted the team to move to the NL in part because he wanted to establish a rivalry with the Cubs.

What gives? Was the rivalry with the Sox good? Why the preference for the Cubs? And did Sox fans regularly outnumber the home crowd at County Stadium like Cubs fans do at Miller Park?

Hey everyone, heading to Chicago in June. And I’m just starting to watch MLB. So I don’t know much about the teams. However, I would love to watch a baseball game. I’ve read good things about both stadiums and teams. But if I had to pick between one team to go watch, or a specific game in June, which would it be?

Really appreciate it!

Hello, visitor from New York here! Planning on making my first visit to Wrigley in August for a Central division ballpark trip.

I know tickets aren’t quite available yet for August, but I was curious how hot of a ticket Cubs vs. White Sox usually is. I’d like to go when they play each other the first weekend of August. I also have an alternate date of 8/20 when the Royals come to town.

My budget is $75 per ticket for 3 tickets, so I’m just trying to see what trip I should take before booking flights and booking hotels. Thanks in advance for reading and for the help and moderators if this isn’t allowed here, please point me in the right direction!

So I'm a new fan of the sport who's trying to get into baseball this year. I know here in Chicago we have two teams, one on the North side and one on the South side. I always used to pass by the Sox ballpark as a kid cause I went on a lot of drives deep into the Southside and I'd always see it driving in the expressway. I feel stupid that as a kid I thought it was the Cubs ballpark because that was the team I was exposed to/first heard of, I only just realized a week ago that I've been passing by the Sox ballpark all this time 😂

There's a reason why I'm suddenly thinking about if I should be rooting for the Sox over the Cubs (I mean, maybe you can root for both, but I don't know). For one, I'm not a fan of Marquee, I hate that it's a thing, I hate the horrible app, I hate that the Cubs moved off CSN/NBCSCH in general. Two, I actually caught more Sox games on TV than I did the Cubs, coming back home to WGN I would have their games in the background while I did my schoolwork. I don't know who the guy was that did play-by-play but he was like "put em on the boardddddddddddddd yes!" He had a really cool voice but I know the new guy is different, he does Bulls games too so I'm familiar with him. Either way, I caught more Sox games than I did the Cubs growing up. And three, the colors.. lol I know it sounds stupid but black, gray, white, with the alt red/navy blue? I love that, my favorite colors are dark ones so.. yeah. And I'm a lot more familiar with the former players on the team than I am with the Cubs, but I don't think I know anyone currently.

But the most important thing probably, is the teams direction. Apparently this team is supposed to be the better Chicago baseball team for a good while, it's very young, could win the division this year, and is a dark horse to win it all. The Cubs meanwhile I hear are looking to get rid of all their good players and rebuild, which sucks to hear. I caught their WS win on TV but I didn't even watch until the 7th game, and didn't even care too much tht next day, just happy I got to see one team from Chicago win a championship got myself. I don't feel as connected to the Cubs even though I live closer to them and was exposed to them first because I did watch more Sox games, drove past the stadium countless times, and this year the Sox are supposed to be a lot better.

I don't know where I'm going with this, as I type this out I realize I may actually be a Sox fan lol. I don't know if I'll be accepted here cause it'll
