In the last couple of weeks I have seen a whole lot of attention paid to a front I forgot existed, team diplomacy. The Bulls and White Sox have added two stars as “team ambassadors.” As far as I understand it, Scottie Pippen and Frank Thomas are being paid to represent their prospective teams as [...]

To be honest, I can’t remember what the White Sox ad campaign was for this 2010 season. I vaguely remember some black and white commercials but I couldn’t tell if they were a tribute to the passing of Michael Jackson or actually plugging the new Sox roster. No matter the clever slogans, it really didn’t [...]

By Paul M. Banks is Founder/President of The Sports Bank.net, Say what you want about the 2010 Chicago White Sox, but at least they hold true to form. Everyone talks about how up-and-down they are, how they (warning: a cliché as painful as Jim Belushi coming) “are consistently inconsistent.” But it’s not entirely true. About [...]

So I’m skimming through the sports headlines on the Chicago Sun-Times website last night, trying to catch up on a little spring training news.  The first thing I see when I get to the sports page of the site?  The top headline which reads: White Sox Jake Peavy; ‘I Don’t Like The Cubs’ Wow, that [...]

Baseball season is here again, and once again I have to pay attention to the White Sox since the papers and our readers just can’t get enough.  I don’t hate them, I just don’t care.  Fortunately Ozzie’s nonsense coupled with Kenny’s hilariously itchy trigger finger have made for entertaining stories.  I’m not sure where this [...]

Every spring the city of Chicago gets a jolt of life when the Cubs and White Sox rivalry is renewed. This little hate-fest typically begins simmering around the time pitchers and a catcher report for spring training and is boiling over by the first Red Line Series. This is a great rivalry since both sides [...]

Ozzie Guillen has chosen to enter the 21st century in the way that brings him the most attention: he signed up for Twitter.  Although rumor has it his sons are posting a lot of his tweets, the bottom line is that he has jumped on another opportunity to make his ridiculous thoughts and feelings known [...]

Watch the very end of this clip to see a clearly drunk Freddy cursing the Cubs.  Good times. On another note, this clip comes from a new website over at the Chicago Now network.  The blog, titled Chicago Sports Mob, has a noble goal.  Written by Matt of Zoner Sports fame, the purpose of the [...]

From the desk of DC Blackhawks: The MLB free agent market this off-season is weak at best, and the White Sox and Cubs are in desperate need for a left handed bat.  What, the three headed monster of Carlos Quentin, Alex Rios, and Andruw Jones isn’t intimidating?  And I thought everyone was content with the class, [...]

My dad sent this to me this morning, obviously perturbed about the Twins great lack of respect for the mighty White Sox (sarcasm).  Anyways, enjoy the goofy commercial: h/t: TPS

I waited to weigh in on the most recent news involving the White Sox organization until it was official. Mark Teahen is coming to the South Side while Chris Getz and Josh Fields pack their bags for Kansas City.  The White Sox wanted the versatile Teahen to add youth to an aging outfield or add [...]

While Chicago tries to forget the 2009 season, some people are still analyzing it.  One such person, Wayne Winston the noted statistician, has been using a different statistic to measure a player’s value (I think its been around for a while, but no one ever listens to it because its not one of baseball’s “traditional” [...]

The White Sox were 2-hit earlier tonight, but that didn’t stop Ozzie from throwing a temper tantrum arguing balls and strikes.  Detroit4Lyfe got a great screenshot of Ozzie right as he was about to say a wonderful word, which as D4L so eloquently puts it, “rhymes with fuck”. According to D4L, Ozzie put on quite [...]
