South Side Fireworks Man

1973?

That '77 team played 81 games at Old Comiskey while the 2000 team played 81 at the Cell which was a launching pad in those days. In '77 no matter what the score I never felt like the Sox were out of the game . But both of those teams had a great offense, for sure. 2000 had Thomas, Ordonez, Konerko, Lee, Durham ... Mercy!

Yeah, the South Side Hitmen of '77 were definitely the best hitting Sox team. That was another fun season to be a White Sox fan.

I liked James Baldwin. 2000 was a fun season, despite how the playoffs turned out.

Wow!

I certainly hope so.

They'll probably replace all the coaches with the exception of Daryl Boston who is "untouchable."

I look forward to a great 2024 season with our elite third baseman, our modern day Jackie Robinson, and our 40+ HR DH as our young championship core.

It's what the Cubs do.

And so ends the era of the "young championship core" with the "multiple championships window." They never did "flip that switch."

Please let it be so!

But the man could sing! I remember they let him sing the National Anthem several times.

I was at a Sox game with my Dad back in those days when the announced attendance was something like 512 people. If I'm not mixing up two different games, I think it was the game that Buddy Bradford playing CF, caught a ball over his head right at the Center Field fence, extended his arm over the fence, opened his mitt and the ball fell out over the fence for a home run. I was just a kid, but I remember being so mad I told my Dad that from now on Ken Berry should be starting every game in Center Field. Even so, that team was still more fun to watch than the 2023 White Sox.

That's one reason why Carl Everett was one of my favorites.

I think AJ's future is in the broadcasting booth. I'd love to have him be the White Sox TV color man. But the Sox would have to have a new owner that wouldn't fire him for being honest.

First thing they need to do is acquire a young, inexpensive power hitting third baseman with about six years of control.

Other than the two games against the Cubs in August, I haven't watched a second of White Sox baseball since the trade deadline. Don't miss it a bit.

Cab Calloway - The heppest cat that ever lived!

So his back is fine now?

Some here said he was a microcosm of all that is wrong with this team. In reality he was what little was right with this team.

Nobody on the White Sox hits the ball as hard as Jake Burger.

Roland Hemond was great. Sox could use a guy like him now.

I'd be ecstatic if they would just get rid of Daryl Boston.

Carl Everett was one of my favorites.
