QUOTE(IlliniKrush @ Oct 28, 2005 -> 12:51 PM) I think this needed its own thread. Pure class. I think this speaks volumes about this organization, this team, this season, this city. It was the right thing to do. Even though I does not matter to me. It was very classy. Well said.

I read on both TSN and ESPN that Paul Konerko has filed for free agency yesterday. I hope he doesn't leave the team like Kariya did with my Ducks in 2003. I won't be happy with the team if it does. I think Konerko is the pulse of this team and needs to finsih his career a White Sock.

I'M SO FRIGGIN' HAPPY!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS OF THE WORLD...NOT THE YANKEES...NOT THE RED SOX...THE CHICAGO WHITE SOX I WILL NEVER FORGET THIS NIGHT AND THIS TEAM, I WILL NEVER ABANDON THESE GUYS AFTER WHAT THEY HAVE GIVEN ME AND ALL OF YOU. I LOVE THE SOX AND I AM GOING TO CELEBRATE NON STOP. TOMORROW, PEOPLE SHOULD EXPECT ME TO BE WILD AND UNCONTROLABLE. THANK YOU WHITE SOX FOR ALL YOU HAVE DONE. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! I NEVER STOPPED BELIEVING. GO-GO WHITE SOX! 2005 WORLD SERIES CHAMPIONS: CHICAGO WHITE SOX

QUOTE(Reddy @ Oct 26, 2005 -> 11:41 AM) after a magical season that not many thought possible, i've been having the ride of my life through this post season. now, one game away from the impossible and i should be celebrating and going crazy and screaming sweep at the top of my lungs. but i'm not. last night i was rooting hard. AGAINST the sox. that's because fate has determined to ruin this whole season for me. tonight AND tomorrow night, i am not going to be around or near a tv in any way, shape or form. and that means if they win, i dont see it. 1st time in 88 years and i wont see it. i wont be able to do the whole "hey grandson, i remember when the sox won the world series in 2005". i feel like it's the perfect ending to a perfect season for a WHITE SOX fan. lol sigh... not trying to martyr myself here but it's just kinda - really - depressing... Go ... stros? yeah... oddly enough. Hey, we are not the sorry Red Sox, watch the game, enjoy it and stop worrying. Even if the Astros win, could they really take to Game 7. I doubt it, their manger has made some horrible decisions and their bats are not very affective. Plus, besides Petite and Clemens, who else do they have. Oswalt showed us his true formation. Stop worrying man and enjoy the night. God knows I will.

Do any of you think we could have another great season next year if we keep our guys and don't change a thing? I think it's possible, we have plenty of young talent to keep this team going for a while. Maybe not exactly WS, but ALCS or ALDS.

I love A.J. don't get me wrong, but I would not choose him for WS MVP.

I'm presuming most of the people here who like hockey are 'Hawks fans. But, how do ya'll like the "new" NHL?

QUOTE(rudylaw @ Oct 26, 2005 -> 11:22 AM) I did and I am paying for it today. But it was worth every second. That was such a heart renching 5 1/2 hours. If it went any longer I am not sure if I could have made it. I was seriously having chest pains. I stayed up and was tired/pissed at the same time that Houston wasted our time.

I have been a Sox fan for 10 years and they were the first team I loved in baseball. Some people think its odd that I am Virginian and love the Sox. But, to tell you the truth, if it was not for "Shoeless" Joe, I might not be a fan.

Anyone here like hockey as well?

I have been listening to My Chemical Romance's "Thank For The Venom" for inspiration and motivation.

Yes...Just one more win and finally the wait is over for us fans. Besides my Ducks going to the Finals in 2003, this is the best time I have had.
