South Side Chicago:
Not just for gangs and drugs anymore.


White Sox Fair-Weathered Fan And Proud of it.



Congratulations to the Chicago White Sox on going to the Super Bowl. I hope they win the Stanley Cup so they can become the best team in the NBA.


Hot Dog at US Cellular Field: $6.00. Miller Draft: $8.00. Seeing the look on fans faces once they realize they are around the corner from the projects: Priceless.


The White Sox are going to the World Series: 2000 Zero, Zero. Party over. Oops out of time.


“Hey, the Sox are going to the World Series.”
“Boston must be real happy.”


“I can’t wait to go the World Series. Yay Sox.” “I can get what for these tickets on Ebay?” “Yay Ebay.”


Chicago White Sox Fan since October 16, 2005, 10:15 p.m. Central time.

Having winner on your side is beyond compare

If you live on the South Side, you watch the 10 p.m. news and cringe every time the bad news emanates from your side of the city.

If you live on the North Side, you don't fret too much about crime defining your area of town.

If you live on the South Side, you listen to traffic reports and expect to hear the travel times on the southern expressways last.

If you live on the North Side, you expect traffic jams (and parking to be nearly impossible) throughout the area so there's less of a need for up-to-the-minute travel updates.

If you live on the South Side, you would do a dance if a Starbucks, Pottery Barn, Whole Foods or Borders moved into your neighborhood.

If you live on the North Side, such dances are unnecessary because trendy stores are a dime a dozen, and if one moves out, you expect several others to compete for its space.

If you live on the South Side, you're aware that some neighborhoods are lucky to have an ordinary grocery that sells fresh fruit and veggies, let alone some specialty groceries offering foie gras and sushi bars.

If you live on the North Side, you expect foie gras-type foods and sushi bars to abound.

If you live on the South Side, you're accustomed to transacting business at mom-and-pop shops behind bulletproof glass and visiting banks with extra-tight security.

If you live on the North Side, you know there are many establishments with bulletproof glass and iron bars, but the perception is that such security may be a tad more optional.

If you live on the South Side, you've probably grown tired of informing your North Side friends of the many lovely, treelined neighborhoods that are not populated by gangbangers and drug dealers.

If you live on the North Side, you probably think that Hyde Park and its University of Chicago campus is the South Side's lone neighborhood that's treelined, upscale and not overpopulated by gangbangers and drug dealers.

If you live on the South Side, you're less inclined to feel like a foreigner in a faraway land when you're dining, picnicking, or going to a theater or museum up North.

If you live on the North Side, you may travel south for the 57th Street bookstores, the 43rd Street blues haunts and the area museums, but for the most part, you can find said fare up North, so what's the point?

If you live on the South Side, you probably have neighbors who are White Sox fans and old enough to recall when the pungent smell of the stockyards would waft through the stands during games.

If you live on the North Side, you may have neighbors who remember the stockyards, but when was the last time they stood within a few miles of Back of the Yards?

If you live on the South Side, you can find an old-timer who recalls the bulbous blue taxicabs, called jitneys, that took passengers up and down King Drive for 25 cents a ride and sometimes would veer off down 35th Street toward Comiskey Park.

If you live on the North Side, there were few jitneys and no street called King Drive. And trying to imagine a Comiskey up North just doesn't fit right in the imagination.

If you live on the South Side, you notice that the fans who attend White Sox games seem to be much more diverse and reflective of Chicago, than are the fans at Wrigley Field.

If you live on the South Side, you don't blame your baseball team's miscues and mistakes on bad luck and curses that include goats.

If you live on the South Side, you've grown accustomed to you and your team being perceived, at best, as second class.

And despite all that's fractured on the South Side, right now everybody is feeling kind of pieced together and on top. No matter how rough the edges.

If you live on the South Side, you don't depend on baseball for your good mental health and eternal happiness.

You understand that not even the kiss of a cylindrical block of wood against a spherical, tightly wound wad of yarn can provide that.

Still, you're just thrilled knowing this may be the year that your White Sox head to the World Series and bring the gold back to, where?
