Just looked at my phone and realized it was October 26th, making this the 8 year anniversary of your Chicago White Sox becoming world champions.

 

Hopefully Rick gets us back there soon but for now let's relive 2005, post videos, favorite moments, talk about the Rally Crede and how awesome Joe's hair was, I miss those days...

Where has the time gone?

 

I remember going to high school the next day being the smuggest motherf***er in the world.

 

Yep, same. I still have my shirt that I made after Pod's walk-off HR. And after they won it all, I printed and cut out a bunch of Astros logos and dropped them in front of my friend's locker who was a Houston fan, and then I pulled out a broom I brought to school and said "Oh sorry, let me sweep this up for you."

 

We aren't friends anymore. :lol:

El Duque

Luis Vizcaino

Dustin Hermanson

Damaso Marte

Cliff Politte

Neal Cotts

Bobby Jenks

 

Scott Podsednik

That's 24. Who am I missing??? Ross Gload? Brandon McCarthy??

 

 

 

I still say that 2005 team could have beat anybody else's team from the last 8 years. They played so well.. and "together". Great team to watch and glad I got to be a part of it as a fan.

Wow. I forgot Damaso and Blum. BLUM! I'm most disappointed that I forgot Blum. Damaso wasn't as important to that team as he was to other Sox teams, so I can see why I forgot him. Jeez, I suck. I just watched that home run yesterday on youtube.

I suppose I'll just copy and paste what I've already put on Facebook.....

 

Happy 8 year anniversary to the greatest baseball team the city has Chicago has seen in very long time, certainly in my lifetime. I can vividly remember being at BW3s with my family watching the WS clincher as the ball bounced over the head of Jenks, and Uribe corralled it and fired across his body to record the final out and return glory to the city. Possibly the greatest playoff team in postseason history, anchored by one of the greatest playoff rotations. Here's to the legends of yesteryear and the future heroes of today. Happy 8 years, '05 Chicago White Sox. Don't stop believin'.

I can't believe I got teary-eyed watching that. Jeez, it still gets to me.
