Okay, so this is essentially a non-story. I guess that is what I get for reading the New York newsmedia.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Apr 15, 2008 -> 12:23 PM) Perhaps I'm wrong, but I also don't think a team with two illegal Cuban immigrants on the opening day roster has ever lost a World Series either, but I'm not quite about to crown the 2008 White Sox World Champions. They ain't illegal

Quite a steal.

Has anyone else noticed that Comcast SportsNet has been having major issues with their on-screen score banner? Tuesday night the score banner was all messed up (Showing Giambi's single shot HR as a two-run HR, constantly off on the count, not recording outs, etc) Last night it disappeared for very large parts of the game, and when it returned it didn't show all the information. Does anyone know what is going on?

Are you sure it didn't go in to the Sox dugout?

This year I have EI on DirecTV and I get both the home and away feeds for every team (unless it is on WCIU) DirecTV > Comcast

I particularly enjoyed the lighthearted tone of this article. Try to imagine this happening elsewhere and this tone being taken. "Oh, they had a few cocktails, those lovable Cubs fans!"

The black "alternate" is my favorite jersey. The more the better. QUOTE (FlaCWS @ Apr 15, 2008 -> 09:44 PM) To the point about superstition, as far as I recall they didn't wear the black in any of the '05 playoff or WS games. I don't think MLB allows teams to wear alternate jerseys during the playoffs. I could be wrong, but I don't recall seeing any team wearing an alternate during a playoff or WS game.

QUOTE (jackie hayes @ Apr 13, 2008 -> 03:52 PM) Blech. Not a good memory.

How about worst start in baseball history? 1988 Baltimore Orioles started the season 0-21.
