Dr. Williams, or how I came to start worrying and hate the White Sox
I have had an epiphany about the White Sox.
For a long time, there were only two teams I hated in baseball -- The Yankees and the Marlins. I have only missed one World Series in its entirety for in the last 10 years: the Yankees-Marlins in 2003. But the White Sox are quickly catching up to the Marlins, and may surpass if they win another World Series. Initially, it was just Hawk & DJ. Then it was acquiring Thome. But when they almost acquired Soriano, it was over. I don't know why, but getting somebody like Soriano, a luxury a team with that offense didn't need, seemed way too, well... Yankeeish. What do you guys think? Am I overreacting?

Okay...they won the World Series, have tons of money coming through the gate because of it, trail in the division, are losing ground in the wild card, and were close to a trade deadline deal that would have made their team better.
If you replace "White Sox" with "Indians", I would assume that you'd have no beef.
The White Sox aren't the Yankees. They're the number two team in Chicago. It's a well-run franchise with limited means and an owner who just wrote them their first blank check.
Sounds like you're jealous. Which, is a perfectly fine reason to hate the White Sox.
