November 1, 200520 yr Does anyone know if the White Sox are scheduled to visit the White House and pose for pictures with George Bush?
November 1, 200520 yr There is no doubt they will go to the White House. The Question is does Ozzie's relationship with Hugo Chavez prevent him from getting the proper security clearance? well...yeah, you get the picture.. heh Edited November 1, 200520 yr by Fingish
November 1, 200520 yr I'd be curious as to the last team from the three major sports DIDN"T go to the House.

November 1, 200520 yr iirc, it usually takes a couple months but they will definitely be there sometime. and as usual when a date is set it won't get past soxtalkers... Edited November 1, 200520 yr by Goldmember
November 1, 200520 yr Sure, they'll invite them to the White House. Not sure if it will be Bush's doing though.. I mean.. he is from Texas..
November 1, 200520 yr I would rather see them pose for a picture with the Venezuelan president......but you know Bush always needs to find time off from doing actual work.... Edited November 1, 200520 yr by DABearSoX

That would be f***ing stupid. I don't give a s*** what you think of Bush, you can't honestly want this team to Venezuela a be pictured with Chavez. As opposed to visiting the White House just as every other major sports champ has done. Edited November 1, 200520 yr by Kalapse

I'd love to see Ozzie and the trophy pictured with Chavez, politics aside it'd be great for baseball and great for our team. There's a whole new country filled with potential fans or even potential future players. I wouldn't mind Jose and Duque getting a parade around Cuba either, but something tells me they'd be arrested. No matter how much I dislike Bush...I'd still enjoy seeing that team on the lawn. That was one Hell of a team.

Exactly, politics aside you have to want to see your team in the White House, it's just an extreme honor.

Just a little joke Kalapse.....yes it is a huge honor to visit the white house, rip on me if you want, I think it is just as big as an honor to be featured on a Wheaties box......
November 2, 200520 yr I'm sure they'll get invited to the White House since every champion team does. It won't be for a while though. The Red Sox visited the White House in March.
November 2, 200520 yr I think Ozzie should try to broker peace between Chavez and Bush. Hell if Ozzie is going to get a "Christ-like" image in Chicago just as Ditka did for winning a championship, Ozzie should start working miracle new!
November 2, 200520 yr QUOTE(Dick Allen @ Nov 2, 2005 -> 12:02 AM) It probably wouldn't be until Spring if it happens. Probably on there road trip to Baltimore next year if it happens.
November 2, 200520 yr QUOTE(POTUSChris @ Nov 1, 2005 -> 07:34 PM) Yeah, but GWB is the one who traded Sosa to us. He owes us! Hey, at least we got George Bell out of that deal.
