How Sweep it is...


The Chicago White Sox's swept the Houston Astros in the World Series yesterday, completing a historic 11-1 post season run and finally put away the demons of the 1919 Black Sox scandle the 1959 loss and winning after an 88 year drought.
While I've always been a North Side fan (yes, that means the Cubs), I bow today in honor of the World Champs. Ozzie and his team -who blew a 15 game lead in their divison in September - proved that they are a force to be reckoned with.
I'm happy and proud today -as most days, though - that I am a Chicagoian.
Though, I find it ironic that all it took was for me to leave the damn state.
Sigh.
