No....more of west coast guy and like the teams from that division.  To be honest, I am a Mariners fan but they can't seem to get any pitching and badly need a left handed hitter who can hit the ball out of the park.

As a tried and true Indians fan, I have to admit it is very difficult but here goes...

Congradulations to the White Sox going to the World Series.

Win it for the AL boys!

Twins fan here and I am pulling for the CWS....makes our division look good.CWS have got no respect this year either cause of the perception that the Central division is weak...I beg to differ,I think the Central division has the best pitching of all the divisions.

Post by: TheLink on Oct 18, 2005, 01:29 PM
all i have to say is that all you White Sox fans better root for Houston cause the Cards are not going to lose to the White Sox like they did to our beloved Red Sox (a team that consistantly wins, but always loses :-/).  Good luck though ;D

ah, so by that logic, if Houston is beating St. Louis, why would the Sox have any trouble beating St. Louis?  Hmmmmm???

Also, what's with this:

Quotea team that consistantly wins, but always loses

loses the big ones?  ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

As a bleeding blue Cubs fan, I loathe and detest all things Southside. Considering I also loathe all things Astro and Cardinal, this year's LCS wasn't a whole helluva lot fun for me. Of course, being a Cubs fan, not many are....

From a purely baseball standpoint, though, it should be a great Fall Classic. Great pitching, clutch hitting, two ugly-ass ballparks. Wait 'til next year....

At the Vic, the group My Morning Jacket was deep into a set Saturday night, but the pull of a Chicago World Series was too strong for some. Despite paying $20 a ticket for the sold-out show, about 30 people were in the lobby crammed around a small color TV, next to a table of band merchandise, watching the White Sox game, singing along to the band's offerings.

I can't beleive I fell asleep before the game winning HR in the bottom of the ninth! Looks like the White Sox may be champs before the Cubbies.Let's keep the World series champ in the American League

Post by: peanut butter puddin surprise on Oct 26, 2005, 09:28 AM
and......the longest game in Series history is won by the Sox!  14 innings, 5.5 hours, 14 pitchers...totally awesome.  If only I had stayed up to 2 a.m. to see it!

One more to go, haters!  ;)

Last night, watching the celebrations, I thought to myself, "Chicago may be the, collectively, ugliest big city in the world."
Title: Re: white sox
Post by: peanut butter puddin surprise on Oct 27, 2005, 09:19 AM
Oh Jesus, the haters are here!

It's just a game, and this year was the White Sox's year.  Last year was the Red Sox's year.  Chicago isn't ugly, and the team had supporters from all over the city (don't believe me?  do a search yourself and find articles about it) and the country.

Perhaps a little jealousy is in order here?  They won the Series, that's the way it is.

Hey, pal, I live North of Montrose on Wilson and Campbell adn I like the White Sox; have since I was a lad. I was just making an observation about the people of the city and their looks.

It's all good, I was merely parlaying my love for the Sox into a discernible form...but I still disagree with you on the "ugliness" of Chicago.  Ever been to Houston? Dallas?  How about Trenton, NJ?  or Milwaukee?  All of those are pretty damn ugly places (IMHO-no offense to anyone from those locations...sorry)

The White Sox were the best team this year and they romped through the playoffs and series with a 10 and 1 record. Congrats!

sour grapes, anyone?  what a load.  baseball doesn't have an instant replay.  get over it.  if the angels had better hitting...and if the astros had better hitting...maybe it would have been different.

but horrible team?!  no thanks.  99-63 isn't horrible.  smoking the red sox in 3 is far from horrible.  and call or no call, the angels hitting was pathetic, so they wouldn't have won, anyways.  the astros were no different-no one wins when they leave all those runners stranded.

it comes down to great pitching, and 4 complete games in the ACLS was great pitching by the sox starters.  not to mention some clutch hitting by podesnik, crede, dye...

Cheated?...uh...were you watching the same game I was? I am no CWS fan by no means but they are quite simply..the best team in baseball...been in 1st place all year.

By 2 horrible teams you mean that the Braves and the Yankess weren't playing don't you....just because these 2 teams don't have the fan base that some of the others do does not make them "horrible" teams.
