A Glorious Season

Here is the ultimate Sox Fans' guide to the entire 2000 season with the totally biased slant only WSI  provides!
 

Park Life at Comiskey

Fan Images, 1977
A window to another age in Chicago baseball history.  An exclusive to White Sox Interactive from photographer Peter Elliott.

   
Payroll Follies 
 with George Bova
 When the situation calls for fretting, Sox Fans are second to none!  Sox payroll is likely to be significantly lower on opening day this spring than it was last year, but is this a bad thing?  WSI's George Bova declares there are better things to spend Sox cash on than paying too much for aging and slow-footed ballplayers, but day-old churros can be found cheaper than everyday centerfielders!
More!
Winter, Sox and Green Fields 
 with George Bova
 Winter is hitting Sox Fans early and hard and the holidays are filled with snowdrifts and college football played on blue plastic fields.  WSI's George Bova notes the days only get longer from here and the return of warmth, green fields and baseball to follow soon enough!  Winning baseball has got nothing to do with loser shrines and least of all hockey!

Exclusive WSI Interview
Stan Bahnsen Speaks!
He was a 21-game winner for the near-miss 1972 White Sox during a critical period in franchise history.  He is Stan Bahnsen!  Now WSI's totally biased Sox Fans can catch up with this hero from Sox history in this exclusive interview from WSI's Mark Liptak and actually HEAR the call of the final outs in his 1973 near no-hitter effort for the Sox.  Who loves ya, Sox Fans!
  Chris Rongey interview... and many more
EXCLUSIVELY for totally biased Sox Fans!

ALDS Game 2... Rays Are Still A Bunch of Devils
Tampa Bay uses sorcery and witchcraft to defeat the White Sox and go up 2-0 in the ALDS; Sox poised to pull a Garvey-like comeback now

Javier Vazquez sucks, Sox offense wastes chances, and Rays win Game 1 of ALDS, 6-4.
September 30...SOXtober, Here We Come!!!
John Danks, Jim Thome, and our Palehose gave the Twinkies the middle finger in a tight, hard-fought victory to move on to play October baseball.

 Totally Biased WSI Features!
Top Ten WSI Features at Ten Years!
There are thousands of pages worth of content at White Sox Interactive. How to pick the best of it isn't easy, but WSI's editor and founder George Bova is going to give it a shot! Whether it's totally biased, utterly petty or completely unobjective, it is always 100 percent relevant to Sox Fans! Who loves ya, baby!
TEN YEARS AT WSI!
When you start a website freely-admitting to the totally biased, utterly petty and completely unobjective viewpoint of a Sox Fan, you're a bit surprised to be celebrating ten years worth of effort! As it turns out another hundred Sox Fans have willingly helped out and thousands more have joined the fun, too. WSI founder and editor George Bova recounts the birth of your internet home devoted to the FANS of the Chicago White Sox. Happy Tenth Birthday, WSI!
Free Agents: The Good, The Bad and the Gimpy!
How is the Sox history of free agent signings to be compared to the likes of Jessica Alba or Kim Basinger? Who more than WSI's Senor Sock can provide the answer! The Toast of Argentina offers some insights into both the thrill of victory and the agony of defeat for Sox Fans during free agent season!
Second No More!
A Sox Fan has ascended to become the next President of the United States of America. Rooting for what most of America regards as that "other" baseball team from Chicago is rapidly losing its stigma -- along with a lot of other "Second City" inferiorities. More Sox Fan presidents than North Side baseball championships?
White (House) Sox!
2008 has delivered some notable firsts for Sox Fans but the biggest one might not yet have happened! Sox Fans keep growing an ever-larger national presence even as our local one just keeps getting ridiculed, but as WSI's George Bova notes, nobody has more powerful friends in high places!

Sox Fans' Question of the Week
If Kenny Williams makes just ONE big acquisition, what should it be?
Starting pitcher.
Catcher.
Infielder.
Outfielder/DH.
One big acquistion won't make a difference.
Two big acquisitions isn't enough either.
Three... yes, I'm terminally fretting.
