Ozzie can’t tweet, but he can squawk after watching the past 2 games

With Ozzie Guillen suspended for a couple games, the man in charge of of managing the underperforming White Sox fell to bench coach Joey Cora. Unfortunately, Cora had no luck turning the team around, losing the 2 games Ozzie was gone. 10-4 on Friday, and 6-2 on Saturday. In the past 2 games, the Sox [...]

Tweet, tweet may cost Guillen some cash

O’k, I admit it, I made a mistake. E: me. I had the White Sox headed home after last night’s win over the Yankees. I failed to notice that, yes they will be headed home, but after today’s game against the Yankees. I thought I knew the Sox schedule like the back of my hand, [...]

Lillibridge is the hero on Tuesday, Colon almost throws up a zero on Wednesday.

I finally realized something. The guy who played right field for the White Sox last night, is named is Brent Lillibridge. It’s not Optioned Brent Lillibridge or Recalled Brent Lillibridge. With as many times as Lillibridge has been to sent to, or brought back from Charlotte, I thought that maybe that was his name. That, [...]

Sox bats continue to slumber, so Humber fills the void.

So a guy I know came to the end of his college days. He was one of the most talented students, in his field, in the country. 1 company in particular offered him a lot of money to come work for their organization. More than 3 years later, he still hadn’t found his footing at [...]

Pour Ron Kittle. Ex-Sox star revs up fans interest.

While the Sox are struggling, one of their former stars got out of the pouring rain, and started pouring oil in the garage. I’m talking about Ron Kittle. You remember, the 1983 All-Star and American League Rookie of the Year for the Sox. Anyhow, Kittle made his way to the Mobil One Lube Express in [...]

Ozzie Guillen’s speaks his mind.

Having been around sports teams for as long as I can remember, I can tell you most coaches, managers & team personnel are about as exciting as a sandpaper. One guy who breaks that mold is White Sox manager Ozzie Guillen. 8 years in to his job, he has mellowed a bit, but he still [...]

Here’s the ABC’s on the Sox–Only Q is performing

After snapping their 7 game losing steak yesterday in Tampa Bay, things were looking up for the White Sox. That was until they ran in to a buzz saw named Justin Verlander. The Detroit Tiger Right Header dominated 7 of the 9 Chicago hitters as Detroit beat the Sox 9-3, but Verlander was the story [...]
