greasywheels121 Posted September 30, 2005 Share Posted September 30, 2005 http://whitesoxpride.mlblogs.com/inside_th...ion_champi.html Put That on the Board Congratulations, Sox fans, your team has won the American League Central Division title! Sorry to not post until now, but after last night's games, we immediately made plans to head to Detroit. I flew over this morning with Ron Vesely, our team photographer, and we arrived at Comerica Park late morning. What a relief ... when Paul Konerko snagged that line drive, you could almost see the weight come off our shoulders. Guys were pretty tame with their on-field celebrations, but once inside the clubhouse, they let loose. Nothing beats unrestrained joy. I hope you all shared those emotions with the team as you watched on television today. Random thoughts from today: Love the smell of champaigne and cigars ... Freddy Garcia turned in another strong outing ... Congrats to PK for his 40th home run ... you can't find a better guy ... Congrats to Ozzie, who had a load lifted today ... So happy for Kenny, Ozzie and Jerry Reinsdorf ... So proud of the loud Sox fans who showed up in Detroit to support the team ... So impressed by how Bobby Jenks threw in the ninth inning ... So cool that White Sox front office staff and employees could watch the game at U.S. Cellular Field and hold an impromptu party to celebrate with the team in spirit ... Annoyed by all my "friends", who upon seeing me in the background on television today, called or emailed, advising me to wear a hat next time so the glare isn't too strong ... So appreciative of all the calls, messages and emails from fans (some who are regular readers of this blog), friends, peers and others in the industry who left congratulatory thoughts ... So happy for our fans, both those who continued to support us all season, through the highs and lows, as well as those who were driven crazy by the stress. We all should enjoy this ... It's been a very long day, so I am going to go take a shower and wash off the sticky champaigne residue. Congrats again Sox fans. You are AL Central Division Champions and you earned it.
