Really, a playoff team? You can't run, you can't pitch, you can't hit. It was like playing a bunch 5 year olds.

After they lost 2/3 to the Royals to avoid having to play the playoff game entirely.

We still won a game in the playoffs and were without our two all-stars.

Still, kind of sad to see Thome and Griffey miss what will probably be their last chance at the World Series.

The White Sox were chartered in 1900, while the evil red ones were chartered in 1901.

Here is some sage

The success and fame of the Cincinnati Red Stockings (c. 1869), baseball's first openly all-professional team, led to a minor explosion of other openly professional teams, each with the singular goal of defeating the Red Stockings. On April 29, 1870, the Chicago White Stockings played their first game, an exhibition, against the St. Louis Unions, defeating them 47-1.

I hate to break it to ya, but the Chicago White Stockings you're refering to eventually changed their name to the Chicago Cubs.

White Sox: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chicago_White_Sox

Red Sox: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boston_Red_Sox

Check out the establishment years for both teams. Chicago wins it by 1

Hey man, fuck you, Thome is a good guy. His only flaw was being a huge Cubs fan as a kid.

I know, that's how I quoted the wikipedia article directly so well. Just pointing out that the Red Stockings name is older than the White Stockings name.

MightyMightyBoston is a troll not to be fucked with.

We're all aware of his intentions, yet we fall for it everytime.

He's got some double-reverse voodoo shit going on. And manages to focus 100% of his power on multiple threads simultaneously.

CB wishes he could troll like MMB, although I'm holding off on final judgement until hockey season: That's CB's time to shine.

I think you are thinking of Brett Myers... Jim Thome is most certainly not a wife beater...

He was voted second friendliest player in all of MLB by the player's association, and is currently putting all 10 of his nieces and nephews through college.... One of his nephews was paralyzed and asked him simply to "hit a home run for me", and Jim smacked two that day for him...

The guys life reads like a fucking disney movie.... Where the fuck did you hear that he beats his wife?

As a kid, Thome was a Cubs fanatic. His hero was Dave Kingman. And when Thome was 8, he once jumped onto the field and into the dugout before a game at Wrigley to try to get Kingman's autograph. Cubs catcher Barry Foote grabbed Thome and got him back to his father in the stands.

"Kingman used to have a boat, and we'd come up Lake Shore Drive and Jim would be saying, 'Dad, you think that's the boat? That one?'" Chuck Thome said. That day, Jim was standing along the fence, and Kingman came out and walked 15 feet from Jim. Jim's screaming, waving the ball. Kingman looked like he was going to take a step toward Jim, then thought, "Aw, hell with it," and walked away. Jim came back and said, "I'm still going to get his autograph."

"All of a sudden, he's gone. Foote says, 'Does he really want Kingman's autograph?' I said, 'Oh, yeah.' He said, 'I'll go down there and come back with a ball with his name, but it won't be his signature. He's such a [bleep] that no one talks to him down there."

A sports dynasty is a team that dominates their sport or league for multiple seasons or years. Such dominance is often only realized in retrospect. Whether a team has achieved a dynasty is often subjective, and can be a frequent topic of debate among sports fans. Some argue that a dynasty requires consecutive championships over a period of time, others suggest that non-consecutive championships are sufficient, and some feel that a team must simply dominate its league but need not win championships.

Sauce: Wikipedia (so you know it's true)
