A Second City Trophy 
 by George Bova
 As lousy as the Sox season has already become, it promises to get worse now that the Sox have agreed to an ill-considered 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! 
More!

Sox Media Interview!
David Haugh Speaks!
Does he read the fan comments?  Does he have a viewpoint on who the next Sox GM ought to be?  Does he have insights into what might be the key trade Kenny Williams pulled that changed the post- World Champion Sox ballclub?  Totally biased Sox Fans get all the answers from the Tribune's David Haugh in yet another EXCLUSIVE interview by Mark Liptak for White Sox Interactive!

Sox legend Flashback Interview!
Jeff Torborg Speaks!
It's hard to imagine a period of faster change than the three years Jeff Torborg managed the White Sox.  From 92 losses his first season to 94 wins the following year, challenging the eventual A.L. champion Athletics throughout the final summer at Old Comiskey Park.  Now the ex-manager speaks directly to WSI's totally biased Sox Fans about the memorable period and highly unusual events leading to his ouster after the 1991 season.  It's another EXCLUSIVE interview by Mark Liptak for the totally biased Sox Fans of White Sox Interactive!

 Totally Biased WSI Features!
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!
On the Brink
At what point does a point of fact simply become a lame excuse? The 2009 White Sox may certainly have been on the brink the past six months, but a final record four games below .500 can't be easily explained away as anything more than wishful thinking about how much promise this team ever delivered on the field. WSI's Mark Liptak sums up a season that ends too soon.
A Good Decade
The conclusion of the 2009 Sox season brings to a close the first of the new century (close enough) and the first complete decade in WSI history, too. How do these ten seasons, 2000 through 2009, stack up in the big scheme of South Side baseball? As Mark Liptak notes, it was a very good decade!
Bummer!
When the 2009 Sox lose is there anything much to wonder other than how it will effect manager Ozzie Guillen? WSI's George Bova is one more Sox Fan bummed about a lousy season, but will Kenny Williams do about it?
