Jerry Reinsdorf, Owner of the
Chicago White Sox

"We don't want Cub fans here. We want the people in the ballpark to pay attention to what's going on in the game and to know who we're playing. I would hope that White Sox fans would do what is necessary to keep the Cub fans out of this ballpark by getting out there to buy tickets, but if they don't, then we have to accept the enemy."
