JUGGERNAUT Posted July 4, 2003 Share Posted July 4, 2003 http://www.dailysouthtown.com/southtown/ds.../pro/041sd7.htm But his latest accomplishment is his best work yet. He did what former GM Ron Schueler and even what a 2000 Sox playoff team couldn't do — he captured the city of Chicago. The Sox are it right now, period. They beat the Cubs on the field, and then stole their thunder off of it. The Sox are now this summer's blockbuster movie, while the Cubs are still stewing in talk of corked bats and Manuel going James Brown on them after last Saturday's win. For the first time in a long time, Cubs fans are jealous of the South Side. They wish their GM would wake up and make a deal or two like Williams did Tuesday, when he acquired Robbie Alomar and Carl Everett in separate trades. While the other GMs were innocently watching their teams play Tuesday night, it was as if Williams were pulling a Michael Corleone, finding a way to whack the hopes of the other teams in the American League Central in just one fell swoop.

greg775 Posted July 4, 2003 Share Posted July 4, 2003 I've heard this before when we make trades. And as far as capturing the city, let's see if our attendance stays high. I want to see one of KW's trades work out before I get excited. I mean from what everybody says, Everett can't field the ball and he's our cf?? If we can't overtake the Royals, I consider this a flop of a season. Look at the Royals roster compared to the Sox and tell me why they are 2 1/2 up on us?

Take it one game at a time, and beat the Royals when we play them. Simple as that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greg775 Posted July 4, 2003 Share Posted July 4, 2003 We'll have our chances with 12 or 13 games left to play against 'em including four in KC I believe to pretty much conclude the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
