Anyone else being superstitious?

For good luck, and for a potential conversation starter if Machado signs, but I've been wearing Sox gear all week. My RLR Hahn shirt, 108 Sale shirt, 1983 logo shirt, along with Sox sweatshirts and jackets too. I only got a few more days left. Don't make me do laundry, Manny!

I haven't showered since the Sox first showed interest in Machado.

Nah, just anxiously awaiting the decision haven’t been this excited about a potential signing since “THE DECISION” and we all saw how that played out so we shall see

If that's true, you should call the sales reps and inform them of that (if you haven't yet). I heard they've been unusually inquisitive this offseason. 

Chicago deserves some really positive news this week, right?

I’ve also said this, if it happens I’m making a package purchase and a jersey, I haven’t bought one in awhile so it’d be nice to do so with some confidence behind it

 Machado in road grey would be *as the kids say* LIT.

I wish I would have bought that Jose Paniagua jersey at Sox Fest years ago so I could burn it in celebration when we land one of Harpchado, or is it Manper?

Manper is related to the Manimal...albeit with caliper-like claws.

Harpchado is either a Pacific fish or a hybrid musical instrument.

I only eat fish from the Atlantic, so I will go with the hybrid musical instrument, please.

Just don't bring up that Twins' game in late 2003, or Bread & Water, lol...

Ugghh.  I was at that game in the upper deck with my nephew.  We both felt the momentum completely switch to the Twinkies even though the Sox won the game!!!

Oh sorry, you said to not mention it.

It's funny how you remember games like that one, or some of the ones that the White Sox were losing down the stretch in 2005...late August and early September.

For whatever reason, the one that stands out even more than the amazing finish to the 2008 season was the game where Carlos Gomez (Hawk just loved that dude) had probably the best game of his career and Jenks blew a really important game down the stretch...just remember walking around in a daze on the beach in Thailand for 2-3 days after that particular disaster.  After the way we had played the Twins from 2001-2007 (with the exception of 2005, of course), it just seemed almost inevitable at that point that the Twins were going to beat us yet again.  That was the height of Ozzie's "The Piranhas" Years.

So many of those games at the Metrodome were a disaster back then.  I also remember being excited to stay up later to catch games from the West Coast and it seemed like every damn game at Oakland was a nightmare.  How are the gonna blow it this time!!! but they would.

I also forgot about the Hawk's love for Carlos Gomez.  Classic!!

I've finally done it. Just took a shower and I am no longer wearing any White Sox t-shirts. 

If he signs tomorrow, you're all welcome.

I am not. But I went against it in 2005.

I had a white White Sox T-shirt. When we won our first play-off game I decided to wear it through the play-offs without washing it. It was so gross but I like to think iI was 50% of the reason we won.
