Go Go Sox. (Or, Bill Would Be Proud.)

(top to bottom: Bill Veeck, Jr., owner of the White Sox the last time they appeared in the World Series--in 1959;

Comiskey Park alongside the travesty of design, history and architecture that is US Cellular Field--check the Internet for pictures of what Armour Field SHOULD have looked like;

and finally....the 1917 White Sox, the last World Series Champions from the Windy City.)

Congratulations to the Chicago White Sox....2005 World Series Champions. The last time they were in the game, they played at a REAL ballpark....for a REAL owner and baseball fan. The last time they WON the Series, they played at that same REAL ballpark...for the man it was named after. Long overdue...and well deserved.

Someday, Amanda and Laura, I'll take you to see the baseball boys at US Cellular Field...and at the Friendly Confines, too. I promise.
