Welcome & Happy New Year

First off, congratulations on surviving 2007. Personally, while most of the year was phenomenal, it did have its shortcomings--namely the worst season compiled by the Chicago White Sox since 1989. Oddly enough, their year-long struggles only served to enhance my support of and emotional investment in them, which is in effect the genesis of this blog.

If you are looking for a White Sox blog heavy on statistics and other quantitative analysis, this is not the place for you; I simply don't have the time to spend hours delving into the numbers. What you can expect from me is a consistently updated blog of the opinions, rantings, and ravings of a lifelong White Sox fan who will do anything to prevent a repeat of the atrocity that was the 2007 season.

You should know that I typically despise blogs and the motivation behind blogging--I think they are nothing more than mediums for liberals to complain about political and social issues about which they are uneducated and offer no feasible solutions. That said, I feel as though there's something universally appealing and well-intentioned about sports blogs, particularly for a specific team, that brings fans together in a structured, constructive forum. Call me a hypocrite, just don't call me a Liberal.

Thanks for visiting, happy reading, and Go, Go-Go White Sox.
