Rant Sox!

The Sox fall to third-place in the division and trail for the wild-card, too! It's tough being a Sox Fan and it's tough competing in baseball's toughest division, too. WSI's Hal Vickery knows the key now is to simply win, win, and win some more, but first a little ranting is in order!

Media Panic!

What sells newspapers, increases listening audiences, and more generally pays the salaries of media personalities searching for ANYTHING to justify the space and airtime their boss gives them? As WSI's Guy Bacci notes, it might never be too early for some Sox Fans to panic, but it's certainly never too early for some in the Chicago media to start bashing Sox Fans either.

Collared Kitties!

A sweep by the Sox has Jim Leyland, Ivan Rodriguez, and the entire Tigers clubhouse unhinged and making excuses. Yes, it's good to be king and it's good to defending champions, too! WSI's Hal Vickery has friendly advice for our rivals from Detroit: Don't look back, someone might be gaining on you!

August 10th...Flashes of 1983: Winning Ugly

Alex Rodriguez and Melky Cabrera played Sox MVPs for the day, their two errors proving to be deadly, as our beloved Palehose would capitalize en route to a 5-4 win over the Evil Empire. It wasn't pretty, but we'll sure take it!
