Cubs fans reflex hatred of White Sox players has been present as long as I've followed baseball. Around 1970, there was a Tribune article talking about the White Sox hatred in the Cubs bleachers (as if fans of a contending team should care about the local struggling team). One of the bleacher bums said of the White Sox outfielders, Walter Williams, Carlos May and Ken Berry, "One has no neck, one has no thumb and one has no brain." Seriously, that was as likeable outfield as a team could put together. I don't know if Cubs fans were joking a half century earlier about the left fielder having no shoes and the center fielder having no brain. Maybe it was an insult that spanned generations of Cubs fans. |

The same media members who today, won't give him the time of day.
Not trying to derail this topic, but, has there been a bigger Chicago star to fall from grace as low as Sosa has? |

I've definitely heard Tigers fans saying they hate Joe Crede.
AJ Pierzynski will get booed everywhere except the South Side and maybe Minnesota.

Probably more for his time with the Indians, but Albert Belle was disliked by just about everyone.

Some of this could have still been lingering for Oakland fans, that could explain it also.
