MHizzle85 Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 I have no clue. I always say i'm not going to watch, but I end up watching anyway. Maybe it's some crazy love for the team. Maybe it's because my xbox just died. Maybe it's due to having nothing else to do. Point being, I have no idea why I watch, I just do.

RibbieRubarb Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 QUOTE(Jimbo's Drinker @ Jul 23, 2007 -> 04:09 PM) duh looking for more substance  "We must live", says the pastor in Igmar Bergman's Winter Light to a man contemplating suicide. "WHY must we live?" retorts the man. This question occupies a central place in the art and life of White Sox baseball, as indeed it should in the life of every human being. In answer to this question, the pastor in Winter Light says nothing and lowers his eyes, indicating in this way the impotence of faith to supply the answer to this most important question. The insistence on asking such simple, yet disquieting questions, which demand introspection and self-examination, is arguably the most valuable quality of Bergman's filmmaking. The questions are on a child's level - Why must we live? Who are we? Is there a God? - but as grown-ups many believe that they have already found the answers to them. It is only at the approach of death that such people begin to concern themselves once more with these questions. For we may find answers in the simple game of White Sox baseball...Thats why I still watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Ginger Kid Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 I like watching train wrecks. It's the same reason I watch police videos, there's going to be a good crash. Â The Sox are the worst team in baseball this season and I find that just stunning coming off a WS two short years ago. So I watch, disbelieving that it can get worse. And it does.

Â But besides the blackhawks, the reason i still watch the sox is because i have to stick with my team, no matter how bad they are to watch. I know they suck, i can admit it and am fine with it because i accept the fact that we most likely will not win 75+ games this year. They are still my team and i am a diehard and i gotta stick with them, no matter what. Edited July 23, 2007 by sayitaintso Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrunkBomber Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 I wanna know which players are performing poorly so when I get drunk at the Cell I know who DESERVES to get ridiculed instead of just always assuming its Boone Logan. These arent the days with Damaso Marte or even Jose Valentin when you knew you would always have somebody to taunt out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LVSoxFan Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 I still watch, but as time drags on and we sink further and further I start losing interest. I stopped watching last season for at least the last month. Â I'd imagine I'll get tired of it pretty soon this year. Â But I do want to see Buehrle pitch and I like Haeger too.

elrockinMT Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 Once a Sox fan always a Sox fan. You can't not/can't watch a Sox game or follow the season. Anything good might happen at anytime and maybe we get to see some real minor league talent come up and deliver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rooftop Shots Posted July 24, 2007 Share Posted July 24, 2007 QUOTE(Jimbo's Drinker @ Jul 23, 2007 -> 04:08 PM) Its obvious they suck, why are u still paying attentio? I'll answer your question the same that I answer some guys at work. I am and always will be and remain a die hard Sox fan. When they win and have a great season, I have the time of my life. If they lose and do poorly, I'll go down with them till the end. If everyone else on the board cannot do the same, I can't but help question of how loyal of a Sox fan that you say you are. As far as what else to watch? Anticipation of what moves take place. (Who leaves, who comes,), Watching upcoming hopefuls such as Charlie Haeger etc, and whoever else they give a chance. Heck, I just love the game of baseball PERIOD, and I'd rather watch and listen to announcers talk more about my home team than watch someone elses home team, and listen to their announcers talk about them all day. LIVE! DIE! WIN! LOSE! SUCCEED! FAIL! I AM A SOX FAN! THEY ARE MY LIFELONG HOME TEAM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
