10/30... Cubune pours cold water on Sox championship

WSI Spotlight

A Championship for the Ages!

The significance of this Sox championship will not be lost on Sox Fans or Chicago's fans who care about winning. But as WSI's George Bova notes, the significance also won't be lost on baseball's insiders who have seen the future of the game and have found it in what the 2005 Chicago White Sox already are! After 88 Years and Waiting, WE WON!!!

WSI Spotlight

Finally Our Turn!

Is WSI's Hal Vickery at a loss for words? Say it ain't so! After decades of religiously following the Chicago White Sox, it's hard to pick out just those things that are absolutely the most noteworthy. Chicago's baseball champions almost leave our guy speechless... ALMOST!

Memo to Fox Sports!

It's the national spotlight that shines down on Chicago and the Sox, but confusion lingers over exactly what makes Sox Fans unique! Ever in search of another story angle, Fox Sports seems hell bent to sell America a story about the Curse of Shoeless Joe -- going so far as inventing the curse from whole cloth! Along with every other Sox Fan, WSI's Hal Vickery is ticked and won't let such silliness stand! We're not cursed and never claimed to be. Deal with it, Fox!

WSI Spotlight

A World Series for Chicago

The national media has suddenly discovered what a passionate bunch Chicago's Sox Fans truly are. What they don't realize is just how passionate Sox Fans have been even when everyone around us was focused on everything but winning baseball. 46 years of baseball futility in Chicago is over and, as WSI's George Bova notes, it is the city's Sox Fans alone who carry the torch forward 88 years in quest of the world championship we live and die for!

Favorite Underdogs!

New heights of silliness surrounds dropped third strikes while allegedly irrefutable video evidence has the media in a tizzy, but not WSI's Hal Vickery! The 2005 Sox have overcoming the oddsmakers odds all the way back to last spring. Now they're the South Side's favorite underdogs!

WSI Spotlight

The Reverse of Cursed!

While the national media prattles on about silly curses no Sox Fan has ever heard of and certainly doesn't believe, the 2005 White Sox prove over and over again what makes them special and anything but cursed! WSI's Mary Swistara is one more totally biased Sox Fan who knows the South Side's championship will be the sweetest ever!
