Oh yeah, I have gotten so many phone calls and emails from everyone back home who always bring up the Sox first, then gloat about the Cubs. It is just starting to annoy me so bad. Now I am starting to rip many people apart about being 'fairweather' fans and they shut the hell up. Wearing Sox stuff here doesn't make the same impact as in Chicago too, I couldn't imagine what that area is like right now, I am atleast sheltered.
Yes, you are lucky to be sheltered...Here at ISU, it's going CRAZY! I bet it wouldn't even get HALF this crazy if this were our Sox...My god, it's so loud outside; can this f***ing STOP?
A side note: There's a statue of a football player to the north of Redbird Arena here on the ISU campus. After the Cubs eliminated Atlanta Sunday night, a few Cubs fans turned such statue into Kerry Wood, using cardboard for the front and back of the jersey, placing a pizza box on its head with the red Cub "C" on it...Well, walking home from work tonight after the game finished, I passed the statue and tore off the cardboard that was the back of Wood's jersey, tore it up into pieces, and threw it out in the trash! That felt good, but it still was the loneliest walk ever from work to my dorm room.
