Don't look back!
Remember when the Sun-Times ran that headline when comparing the 2005 White Sox to the 1969 Cubs? And how apt it was, seeing as how the 2005 White Sox performed the most spectacular choke in baseball history! YES! Whoa. Sorry. I just confused reality with Chicago media wet dreams. Anyway, I am reviving that quaint l'il headline to do our 1970-2013 comparison. After 100 games: 1970 White Sox 34-66 GB 30.5 2013 White Sox 40-60 GB 16 So the 2013ers are ahead of the record pace. On the other hand, they are still on a pace to lose 100 games, which they have not done since that wonderous 1970 season. But at least the 1970 team was composed of MEN. They CARED. They just weren't in it for the money. They wanted to play. Not like this gutless, heartless, brainless, listless lessless collection of dopes. The 1970 Sox lost 106 games, but every single one of those glorious 106 losses was accomplished with heart. |

How's next year's draft class looking? It'd be if the Sox could get a top 10 or even top 5 pick.

After 106 games:
1970 White Sox 37-69 28.5 GB 2013 White Sox 40-66 21.0 GB (for now) We've been stuck on 40 wins for a while. The 1970 team got to 40 on August 5. It's gonna be a close race! |

I hope Sox fans everywhere can appreciate the magnitude of just how inept this sorry excuse for a team is. To be in the running to match this level of incompetence is very hard to accomplish. My hats off to all them.

Honestly, I've never been this excited about a losing season. I hate when they are middling. Give me horrible or give me great.

I remember as a kid watching the 1970 team and as pathetic as they were they still were more entertaining to watch then this overpaid outfit is. They had Horlen,T John,Wood,Aparicio,K Berry,C May,B Melton, and T McCraw. This team has Sale, Konerko and Reed and not much else to get you to come to the ballpark.

Heading into tonight's game-
2013 White Sox 40-67 -- 1970 White Sox 38-70 2.5 GB August 2, 1970 White Sox split doubleheader with Cleveland. Lose the opener, 4-2 with Jerry Crider taking the loss. Win the nightcap 8-7, with 2 runs in the botoom of the 9th on a Bill Melton walk off homer! Wilbur Wood with the in win in relief. I'm beginning to like the 1970 team ALOT more than this year's team. |

There is a reason for that. See bold above.. As bad as they were they gave all that they had to the last out. 2013 team seems to just be going thru the motions without an organ beating in their chests.. BK59
