Hey my fellow chicago sports' fans, is chicago being curse that all of our sports team wont amount to anything. I came from the Philippines 5 years ago and ever since I have loved the SOX, BEARS and the BULLS. Its a good thing I was here for a couple of championships when the BULLS' dynasty was still intact. Well this year, we had such high hopes for our SOX to go to the playoffs at least. But what do they do, they stop playing baseball and took on the identity of relying on the second half to make a run. But baseball is played the whole season so next thing we know we were down by 13 games and ran out of games to catch the twins. Now, what we thought was the savior of our missery this year turns out to be a heart breaker also. I remember seeing posters at SOX games saying "Thank GOD for the Bears" And again, we have spoken too soon. Our bears just loss a game against the freakin lions. The way the Bears are playing, we are not going near the playoffs. The Packs, i hate to say it, are playing mad hungry for success. The Bears on the other hand are being smack down straight up. The lions showed more passion than the Bears today. Our offense is predictable, the defense was once the best now the worst. We need a champion team here in Chicago badly. Hopefully the SOX breaks the cycle soon!!!!

I am so glad that we have Buerhle on our side. The SOX better lock him up for years to come. We, SOX fans better be proud of our lefty ace. That list of the past winners are pretty heavy company to be in. I hope the management just make the right moves on adding a starter that brings in a WINNING ATTITUDE and nothing else.

Brad Penny would be a good pitcher for us. We need GOOD pitching no matter how we can get it. I watched the game today, Twins VS. Angels, they both showed good pitching. Hopefully, Joe Kennedy get traded to us because I think he will be a good pitcher and a good left handed starter behind our lefty ACE Mark Buerhle.

Speaking of a pitcher coming off an injury, what do you guys think of Kris Benson? He is definitely not Ritchie and he had good seasons with the Pirates before the injury. Another suggestion that I have for you guys, how about Joe Kennedy of the Devil Rays. He pitched against us very well and he is a lefty. I think he will be a good pitcher complementing from our best pitcher Buerhle.

Text I think they will invoke it. But here is my question. Does Frank has other options? I know he wants to be back with the sox. But can he choose to re-construct his contract and get paid with a reasonable amount. Then,with him doing this, we can use the money to sign a good pitcher. If this is possible, I hope the Big Hurt does this and prove he is part of the team.
