2. As a Cubs fan
the "crosstown hatred" seems to be quite one sided. Most Cubs fans I have known/seen don't care one way or another about the Sox. The reverse, however, is most certainly not what I have seen.

4. true
White Sox fans have an inferiority complex when it comes to the Cubs who have been more popular for quite some time.

I think Indians and Twins fans hate the White Sox more than Cub fans do.

8. Au contraire
I am a lifelong Sox fan in the NW burbs. I don't hate the cubs but am just ambivalent. The problem comes when my friends and in-laws (90% Cub fans) start bashing the Sox. I never start it but at some point I feel the need to defend my team.

Class act by the Cubs, BTW.

6. Words I'd never heard before today:
"Life long White Sox fan"

Words I'll never hear again past January:
"Life long White Sox fan"

Listen, I'm sure there are literally dozens of true, lifelong Sox fans, and to you guys, I absolutely tip my hats, more than you can imagine. I'm knocking the many bandwagon jumpers out there, not you guys.

10. all I can say is...
Edited on Thu Oct-27-05 02:29 PM by Rich Hunt


It's not up to the east coast or any other
part of the country to decide what we're
about without consulting us.

There are more than 'dozens' and it's not our job
to prove that to anyone who doubts us.

This isn't for anyone but the south side. We're tired
of defending ourselves against a bunch of bad 'conventional \
wisdom' and media-generated nonsense. We shouldn't have
to now that we've brought a championship home and some people
still don't have the grace to accept that someone else
isn't the center of the universe.

We're here. That's someone else's problem if they
don't believe it. They can tell it to a wall next
time for all we care.

11. Congrats To The Sox & Their Fans From Another Cub Fan
Good for you and your team! That was pretty fun. Now, let's hope that the Trib sells the team to someone who isn't bottom line focused and just wants to win! The blueprint is just 12 miles away!
