Harry P. Posted April 14, 2016 Posted April 14, 2016 Big fan here. Loving the fact that they just swept the dreaded Twins (in Minneapolis!) three games to none. So far so good... 7 and 2 is a nice start. Fingers crossed... Yeah, it's not the same Sox of Konerko, Pierzyinski, Buehrle, etc. that won the WS in 2005. But still... gotta keep hope alive!
BIGTRUCK Posted April 15, 2016 Posted April 15, 2016 I really liked the Sox during Ozzie Guillens watch. When Ozzie was in Chicago his wife said ''Minnesota is coming to town'' Ozzie said ''good, are you dating somebody from there?' Who cares''. His sons were the talk of sports radio almost daily. I didnt care for the Jim Thome trade Sox to Twins. I met Minnie Minoso numerous times in Elmhurst .So you can say I like the Sox...and I also like everyone that plays the Cubs..
High octane Posted April 15, 2016 Posted April 15, 2016 I guess you could say that I'm a white socks fan, as I wear them almost every day.
slusher Posted April 15, 2016 Posted April 15, 2016 Nothing against the Sox, I have always loved the Cubs since i was a kid and i will always be a Cub fan. I have been to Sox games with my brother but always more Cub Games. I want the Sox to win and represent also...
Agent G Posted April 15, 2016 Posted April 15, 2016 MrsG's entire family are rabid White Sox fans.They are so so with the Cubs.In my world it's the Cardinals. G
cobraman Posted April 15, 2016 Posted April 15, 2016 Born in Chicago (many years ago) and I am a Cubbies fan. : )
CometMan Posted April 15, 2016 Posted April 15, 2016 (edited) Sorry, Harry, we're not allowed to like Chicago teams here! (My area, not the forum!) But, if you say you root against that nasty blue & yellow school with the big "M" that is near here that would even it up! Edited April 15, 2016 by CometMan pressed button too soon
Harry P. Posted April 15, 2016 Author Posted April 15, 2016 I don't root against any team. I just ignore them. Like the Cubs. I'm not "anti" Cubs... just really don't follow the NL.
BIGTRUCK Posted April 15, 2016 Posted April 15, 2016 Sorry, Harry, we're not allowed to like Chicago teams here! (My area, not the forum!) But, if you say you root against that nasty blue & yellow school with the big "M" that is near here that would even it up! The hockey and basketball rivalry was pretty good back when. Then the players you hated in Detroit became loved in Chicago [ Rodman-basketball and Probert-hockey ]
Harry P. Posted April 15, 2016 Author Posted April 15, 2016 Then the players you hated in Detroit became loved in Chicago... When AJ was the Twins catcher, we hated him. When he came to the Sox, we loved him!
Harry P. Posted April 16, 2016 Author Posted April 16, 2016 Sox just beat the Rays in Tampa, 1-0... scored their run in the 9th. 8-2, baby!
slusher Posted April 16, 2016 Posted April 16, 2016 In my world it's the Cardinals. G My wife being from Missouri is a die hard Cardinals fan. See jokes around with me when they beat the Cubs but i give her respect when the Cubs win and say nothing. I don't hate any team i just like sports..
madhorseman Posted April 16, 2016 Posted April 16, 2016 I also prefer the Sox to the Cubs, my Wife loves the Cubs. One day in 2007 I stopped to buy gas and milk while wearing my 2005 World Series Champion t shirt and had some rando guy say: "White Sox suck". I looked down at my shirt, and laughed.I'm more of a hockey fan anyway, played it when I was younger. Ice hockey, ball hockey (street).GO HAWKS!!!
1930fordpickup Posted April 16, 2016 Posted April 16, 2016 Here in Detroit Tigers area we have cute fans.
