4 complete games and an 8 1/3 inning performance. Total domination in all parts of the game. Swept the defending world champs in 3 games.

That's what's so sad. Their Bush league play makes all their great accomplishments seems inconsequential.

They won more games than any team all year. They took apart the Sox.

Their pitchers did very well (an understatement).

Yet all that will be remembered is some scamming bush league play where their catcher ran to first after the players left the field when he knew he was out.

Black Sox.

Congrats Black Sox.

Actually, nobody will remember that play. Just you. Anyone who knows a thing about baseball will marvel at how the Sox pitched and executed both on offense and defense. We have another team of whiny bitches in our town called the Cubs. They blamed their NLCS loss in 2003 on a goat's curse and a guy named Bartman. I remember that Bartman didn't drop an easy double play ball to end the inning and win the game. And I don't think Bartman blew game 7 with two separate leads. The Angels lead off man was on base twice in the series. Vlad had 1 hit. The starting pitching was bad save Byrd. The bullpen collapsed in game 5.

Excuses are for losers and liberals... which one are you?
