It's just a good thing the Christians had Hitler batting clean-up for them, or else some day the Islamist extremists might some day catch up to them in the body count contest.

Glad he made it long enough to see a Championship come to the South Side. Al.

SnB!

Congratulations and Well Done! If it turns out there is a correlation between your wedding and the Sox winning it all, you and Brian may have to get divorced and remarried every October, you know.

QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Oct 28, 2005 -> 04:35 PM) I'd say 20% of the people near me booed Daley. The guy puts on a HELL of a parade for the Sox, yeah, let's boo him. :headshake Another clown behind me kept yelling; "Screw Venezuela" every time he saw the flags or heard Ozzie mention it. We got some real winners in Sox nation. I was outside the Cell for Game 1 trying in vain to score the elusive golden ticket, when Jesse Jackson arrived for the game. Whether I agree with much of his politics or not, I was completely embarassed by the fans around me and the insults they were throwing his way as he walked past us. :headshake

Wire to wire, then winning it all in such historic fashion makes 2005 a season that will rival ANY in franchise history. The "old timers" hung their hats on '59 because that's the best they had. This is the year they got it done. I'll be telling my grandchildren about it 50 years from now.

I'd say 2.5 million almost for sure unless we tank straight out of the gate. 3 million would be tough.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure Mplssoxfan knows the Onion stories are fake. (Even if he doesn't know this was posted twice yesterday already . . . )

Glad to hear they weren't booing him. Born and raised on the South Side and a lifelong fan. The renaming thing was tough for me for a while, but man do I love the changes at the park that the deal allowed them to do.

Not a surprise, but good to here Ozzie's sticking around.

QUOTE(Rex Kickass @ Oct 28, 2005 -> 09:07 AM) That's funny. Thought you were serious for a while. The criminalization of politics happened when politicians openly started flouting the law. ^^^^^

That was about the worst kept secret in Hollywood. In fact I didn't know it was a secret.

I've been a big critic of Reinsdorf at times, but I think HE deserves the ball more than anybody else.

You are all right to say 'who cares?'. But, seriously, what a f***ing idiot.

It's a good day to be a White Sox Fan!

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Oct 27, 2005 -> 03:25 PM) Bull. If Bush nominates someone who the Right wing clearly likes, they will push the nuclear option 100% if the Democrats manage to pull together a filibuster. Agreed. And I can't see it NOT happening. The Evangelical Right is spoiling for this fight and are going to bring a lot of pressure upon Bush to make sure his next nominee is more to their liking. And I don't believe for a minute that the Evangelicals really care if the nominee is a constitutional 'constructionist' or 'originalist' etc. They only want somebody who help them make sure that pregnant people other than themselves can't get abortions, gay couples can't marry, God stays in the Pledge of Allegience and the Ten Commandments make it back to the courthouse, and the nation takes the next steps toward being the Fundamentalist Christian theocracy they think it should be.

At least it's just a posting error and not an error in the print run (though I'm sure they are printed up well in advance based on the fact that everyone is out buying WS WS gear today). I have a funny pin from 2003 that they were handing out at Pro Player before one of the Sox/Marlins interleague games last year. It says 'Florida Marlins 2003 American League Champs' on it. I guess that's why they had bagfuls of them to give away.

OK, maybe it's not so subtle. But when an absolutely great, nail-biting playoffs just end in which only one game out of 12 can be conisdered a blowout, and all the media can do is either stoke the 'bad call controversey' or go off on idiotic 'worst WS ratings ever' rants because the Yankees or Bosox aren't in it, it's beyond absurd.

The other memorable Onion headline today was "Bush To Nominate Next Person Who Walks Through Door."

Awesome post, Brother Kap!

Forever #35!!
