I don't want to promote their show, but I had to respond to his idiotic comment last week about the White Sox not having a nation. I would encourage everyone to send him a similar email (mikeandmike@espnradio.com). For once maybe, we could get some air time.
Here's what I sent...
Mr. Greenberg,
Let's go back to last week when the subject of curses was discussed at nausea. I don’t have an exact quote, but I believe the conversation had you saying something like "Only the Cubs are left now in the drought of no World Series championships… The White Sox don't count, because they have no nation."
You may have covered the Bulls, but you obviously no nothing about Chicago baseball. Yes, due to the rise of the WGN Superstation, a booming neighborhood, and a senile drunk play-by-play announcer, the Cubs have developed a national following. Good for the Cubs. The White Sox do indeed have a nation, we just aren't the darlings of the media and when the team is crap, we're not going to pay our hard earned money to see it. If you are still not convinced, check here…

It's bad enough our local Chicago media only cares about the Cubs. Until you can realize the obvious fact that White Sox Nation is alive and well… Just Shut Up!
