Marc Hill Speaks! 
 by Mark Liptak
 He was there for the ascent of the Winning Ugly Sox!  He was inside the clubhouse as the team came up just short in the ALCS.  And he was there, too, for the decline and dismantling.  He's Marc Hill, a fan favorite on the South Side now speaking directly to WSI's totally biased Sox Fans in this EXCLUSIVE interview with Mark Liptak!

Ears and Appendices 
 by George Bova
 The 2011 Sox have plumbed new levels of mediocrity in record time and their lousy start has seemingly doomed the season already.  What do ears and appendices have to do with this and how might this blighted patch of Sox history offer a ray of hope that has demanded attention for a much longer time than anyone presently suiting up with the major league roster?  WSI's George Bova says, "Eureka!"

 WSI's Totally Biased GAME RECAP
May 16 ... Not Worth Staying Up For
The White Sox looked a little sleepy on the West Coast as they absorbed a 7-2 pounding at the hands of the Angels.
May 15... Fun While It Lasted
An eighth inning pitching implosion does the Sox in as they lose 10-8 to Detroit.
May 14... Better Late than Never
John Danks put Sox in early hole, but career night from Dayan Viciedo and stellar outings from bullpen propel Sox to comeback win
May 13...Offense? Offense? Bueller?
Humber pitches his heart out for the first time since the perfecto, but once again, his offense gives him minimal support against a horrible pitching staff, and Thornton and Reed serve up batting practice.
May 12... Cold Bats on a Wet Night
Chris Sale could not get his pitches to work and neither did the Sox bats as they were shutout by the Royals 5-0 in rainy U.S. Cellular Field.

 Totally Biased WSI Features!
Part 2: Sox and the Media
The second and final installment looking into the long strange trip between the Sox, Sox Fans, and the local media. A "bad neighborhood" filled with violent Sox Fans? Learn what started the myth and why it persists amongst those carrying their own agenda. WSI's Mark Liptak takes WSI's totally biased fans on an exhaustive review of key events and quotable quotes every Sox Fan should know.
Sox and the Media
Part I. What Sox media coverage came before 2005 and what has resulted in the time since our Sox won Chicago's first baseball championship in 8+ decades is a subject of great interest -- and sometimes anger -- for a very large number of Sox Fans. How do the fans, the players -- and yes, even members of the media -- recount the sordid history of our Sox and wider world observing their efforts, whether as disinterested parties or rabid partisans. WSI's Mark Liptak takes WSI's totally biased fans on an exhaustive review of key events and quotable quotes every Sox Fan should know.
A Second City Trophy
As lousy as the Sox season has already become, it promises to get worse now that the Sox have agreed to an ill-conceived trophy for "bragging rights" across the city's baseball fans. WSI's George Bova wonders what could possibly symbolize any better the futility, stupidity and incompetence of the Second City than creating such an award? No wonder it's sponsored by BP!
In Defense of Sox Hitting
A weak start the first week of the season has Sox Fans fretting unusually early! What conclusions can and can't be drawn after a 2-4 homestand for our 2010 Sox? WSI's George Bova notices a few trends that ought to reassure and cause some reflection, too.
Sox Quest
The 2010 season begins with the Sox and Sox Fans both understanding what must be achieved this summer: Wins and lots of them! As WSI's George Bova notes, in the sometimes bizarre world of baseball in the Second City, you wouldn't think such a quest would cause much controversy. Ah, but that's not the lot in life we Sox Fans were born into and destined to overcome!
