White Sox WIN ! ! !

It is one thing to get into the world series, it is totally another to do such after over 80 years.

And even more so to win in a four game series close-out.

I am happy.

I just hope to live long enough to see the Cubs do the same. Being that I am originally from Hammond, IN, I am considered a "southsider". {It is a lot easier to say I am from So. Chicago than explain that I was born in what is considered "South Chicago" in the larger picture}. But despite mine & others angst about the total destruction of the original ball park, & then later on, having what was/is considered by those traditionalists of Chicago upbringing . . . .

IT IS COMISKEY PARK DAMMIT, AND ALWAYS WILL BE! Despite the latest trend to rename places of history, places of long known remembrances, and where many people saw the first baseball game of what they can remember, {or think they remember}, because of some contractual obligation to the sponsor that has the most money. It is still Comiskey field to myself & many others.

I am just really happy that they made it to the ALCS series, and then the World Series.

And then they win in in FOUR GAMES!!!!!!@!!!!!!!!!!!!

Once again, I am proud to be a Chicago-an. And now can say I am from the South Side without getting scowled at.

I still really think it would be cool to see the Sox & Cubs in the World Series.


But you would have to lock down the whole tri-state area, enforce marshal law, and basically close down the metro Chicago area if that were to ever happen.

Then again, Lake Michigan would probably turn warm by August if that ever happened, & Petey the peg-legged pirate penguin that prefers puffin porn will finally find the secret to the universal flange. [he was abandoned in Chicago while on a mission, and now is working for me. The whole abandonment issue got him to become one of the black & white side]. Much like the White Sox colors.

Blessed Be, Dr. S.
