DABearSoX Posted February 28, 2006 Share Posted February 28, 2006 Well November is months away, but I was thinkin that March 1st can be our Thanksgiving. 2005 was a turning point for pretty much all of us, unless we have some 95 year olds with computer literacy. The whole feeling coming into this spring training is different. I try to look back and see how I felt at the beginning of other STs but I really can't think on that level anymore. Well getting back to my point of this thread. What are we all thankful for in the White Sox community. I will start it off with the most obvious : We are all thankful that we finally did it and grateful we will at least see one trophy in our lifetimes. The number one thing I am most thankful for though, is the unity of this whole organization. Not just the team, the fans just as much. Starting with the team, I love how they convey a sense of pride, bringing back old players to coach and so forth. Basically just creating that proud feeling to be apart of the Chicago White Sox. The other part of this that I am hugely grateful for is our fan base. I don't care what anyone tells me, I don't care about the media, I dont care about how filled our stadium is. I think us true White Sox fans are the most loyal in the game. Not only to the team, but to each other. Throughout my 22 years as a SOX fan, (yea I was born with a sox mini bat in my hand), when I am not in the Chicago area and someone sees me wearing my sox gear they always make a point to come up to me and talk at least 5 seconds of sox baseball. And whenever I see someone I make the same point. And yes that loyality also conveys with our knowledge of the game. I might not have been to all 50 states but in my time I don't think I have ever met a fan of another team that is more knowledgable then Sox fans. I am not saying this with bias either, i just have never met a Giants, A's, Rangers etc.. fan that could hold a conversation about the game of baseball more then a Sox fan. and lastly I must add I AM THANKFUL FOR THE RALLY CREDE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
