October 25, 20169 yr I know there's a lot of this going on in random threads, but this article was too awesome to not get its own. Some funny little jokes snuck in there. http://deadspin.com/remember-when-the-chic...erie-1788190631
October 25, 20169 yr I started to hate Deadpsin because of the political commentary but that was pretty classic.
October 25, 20169 yr QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Oct 25, 2016 -> 02:37 PM) The Obama photo killed me. That's the best part lol. As if to say "nobody ever acknowledged the White Sox after that, except the President of the United States, frequently, in public"

October 25, 20169 yr QUOTE (Hatchetman @ Oct 25, 2016 -> 11:52 AM) Maybe he can lead a new ownership group? That's actually a decent idea.
October 25, 20169 yr QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Oct 25, 2016 -> 01:09 PM) That's actually a decent idea. He can appoint Trump as our GM since our trade deals are a disaster right now and no one knows more than he does about trade deals.
October 25, 20169 yr QUOTE (iamshack @ Oct 25, 2016 -> 01:36 PM) He can appoint Drumpf as our GM since our trade deals are a disaster right now and no one knows more than he does about trade deals. That would be tremendous, like his ability to make terrific deals.
October 25, 20169 yr Author QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Oct 25, 2016 -> 03:38 PM) That would be tremendous, like his ability to make terrific deals. And think of all the women who would quickly make the jump to Sox fandom!
October 25, 20169 yr QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Oct 25, 2016 -> 01:39 PM) And think of all the women who would quickly make the jump to Sox fandom! Nobody respects women more than Trump does! And just imagine the wall he would build in the outfield!
October 25, 20169 yr QUOTE (iamshack @ Oct 25, 2016 -> 01:44 PM) Nobody respects women more than Drumpf does! And just imagine the wall he would build in the outfield! Heck, we could build a brand new stadium and have someone else pay for it.

October 25, 20169 yr QUOTE (Hatchetman @ Oct 25, 2016 -> 11:52 AM) Maybe he can lead a new ownership group? Honestly, it isn't the worst idea for him to be a spearhead behind an ownership group. Doesn't mean it isn't his financing.
October 25, 20169 yr And we could build a wall, to make sure no base coach is ever attacked by drunk hillbilly fans. Correction: so no base coach is ever attacked by drunks.

I don't want to start a political conversation here, but do you think the White Sox would gain or lose fans if President Obama lead a new ownership group?

October 27, 20169 yr Jesus, that catch by Uribe. Probably the most unheralded play in MLB history. Derek Jeter makes a lesser but similar catch mid season and it's on every highlight reel for all time.

Derek Jeter makes a lesser but similar catch mid season and it's on every highlight reel for all time. This x1000. That was literally the 2nd to last out of a 1 - 0 World Series championship-clinching game with the tying run on 2nd base and it gets almost zero recognition. Hell, considering the circumstances, I'd put it above Willie Mays' catch. His happened in game 1.
October 28, 20169 yr This is the reason why we hate the Cubs and their following. http://imgur.com/a/PNGwY The left magazine cover is from three weeks ago. They devoted the cover to a columnist awarding the Cubs the World Series championship. The right magazine cover is the first official cover (outside of Chicago) announcing that the Sox won the World Series. They gave the Sox a tiny corner of the cover and gave the NFL the bigger story.

Hell, considering the circumstances, I'd put it above Willie Mays' catch. His happened in game 1. The play for the final out was very good too. I always root for Uribe. One of those few guys who no matter where he plays I just love him. He was so freaking good defensively (especially for being so thick) and that arm...wow. Please no one go back to 2005 and tell me advanced stats say otherwise (I don't know...I just want to trust my eye and memory).
