Article on the front page of cnnsi.com reporting on whose curse is worse. its a pretty damn good article acctually sorta of says that the black sox are our curse

I'll post a snippet that I found very amusing

 

Winning has never mattered much to our neighbors up north. The Cubs haven't uncorked any champagne because their stars are too busy corking their bats. Fans flock to Wrigley Field no matter how pathetic the product on the field. The Bleacher Bums are simply there for the sun, the seventh-inning stretch singalong and that silly ivy.

 

To White Sox fans, there's nothing lovable about losing. It's not that we're disloyal; we simply demand a winner. The upper deck at Comiskey ... er, U.S. Cellular Field ... hasn't always been as empty as Leon Durham's glove in Game 5 of the '84 NLCS. Give us a scrappy, blue-collar squad we can get behind -- the Go-Go Sox of the '50s, the SouthSide Hitmen, the Winning Ugly Crew of '83, and, here's hoping, this season's surprising crew -- and we'll show up. We're still smarting about the almost-certain World Series our first-place Sox were cheated out of when the strike canceled the '94 season. So forgive us if we're always waiting for the other sock to drop. But don't think for a second we aren't following our team closely.

 

I cant post it all because there are 2 columns for each side of town.... here is the link

We do not claim a curse. In fact, we vehemently deny the existance of any curse. That's Cub and Red Sox garbage.

Let them have their lame ass curse as an excuse for failure. Sox fans don't accept that bulls***.
