If these issues were addressed maybe we would have had a team that was more competitive and generated more fan interest. Instead, JR allowed the Sox and our fan base to become punching bags, taking it on the chin, over and again. Having fun with that? Yes, a lot of that here. I still think it is not too late to make some changes and at least win some games instead of throwing the towel in. We’re definitely taking it somewhere, but it ain’t the chin.

This is also the same poster who likes GRF because it has 10 acres of concrete parking lots and he doesn't have to interact with the city when coming to games. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TaylorStSox Posted June 27 Share Posted June 27 That jersey's definitely worth the price of admission. Even though the team is pure trash, going to the park is still fun. The Sox do a great job at fan experience. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TaylorStSox Posted June 27 Share Posted June 27 2 minutes ago, Milkman delivers said: Chicago is pretty well known to have almost equal distributions of black, Hispanic, and white. There are more black and hispanic Chicagoans than white. That's just a fact. I'm not sure what that says about the demographics of Sox fans, but proximity seems like a reasonable deduction. It's certainly not a racist one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d always heard what I said earlier and I looked it up again just to be sure. And SS2K5 posted a different one than what I saw which also agreed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaylorStSox Posted June 27 Share Posted June 27 The entire list of Southside neighborhoods with a majority white population: Mount Greenwood - 83.4% Beverly - 91.3% Canaryville - 56.3% If proximity to the park is an indicator of fandom, then it's reasonable to assume Sox fans would lean non-white. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsider2k5 Posted June 27 Share Posted June 27 Chicago can feel like it is all one race or another because the lingering effects of segregation and redlining still have neighborhoods filled with almost either all white, or all minorities.
