traydragen Posted November 28, 2005 Share Posted November 28, 2005 Yea man sorry to hear about that, can't really say anything about the White Sox shirt bc that's not important at all when it comes to something like this. But yes it is good he experienced a WS before he passed. I'll be praying for ya buddy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

witesoxfan Posted November 28, 2005 Share Posted November 28, 2005 QUOTE(traydragen @ Nov 27, 2005 -> 06:44 PM) can't really say anything about the White Sox shirt bc that's not important at all when it comes to something like this But it is. Sports can be a huge part of a person's life, and they bleed their favorite team's colors their entire lives. It also seems, atleast to me, that baseball specifically has this as well. Maybe that's because baseball is this way to me, maybe it just truly is this way, and maybe it is every sport in general...I'm not sure. The fact that he witnessed something huge, something monumental in White Sox history, something that hasn't happened since 1917 can help put closure to one's life. If he was a true, diehard Sox fan, then he witnessed something incredible, and it was a hell of an end. Sorry for your loss...many condolences go out. I wish you the best through these times, and it will get easier to cope with the loss as time goes on. Be happy and thankful he did witness a world championship before he passed, and that he was a happy man in resting for the final time.
