Moving on...

I submit that the season needs to begin.

I'm with Straw and Kid on this one.

Tastes great AND less filling!

In my opinion, if Sox fans do give the "hard to get to" argument (which I really haven't heard, as a south-surburban-Chicago resident for my first twenty-four years), it's likely code for "I don't want to get that close to black people."
So I agree with Rok's premise that the excuse would be full of shit; I just really haven't heard that excuse given. I HAVE heard "I don't want to go into those neighborhoods," which is a little more on the nose.

That sucks, for real.
White Sox - rok - 02-27-2018
Damn, that truly is a shame. No joke.

I thought Sox fans were reinvigorated by the rebuild.
White Sox - 1060Ivy - 04-09-2018
They might be but they still don’t attend games
White Sox - rok - 04-09-2018
I anxiously await the surge in their TV ratings then.
White Sox - Kid - 04-09-2018
I can't be the only one to notice the suggestion that rebuilds are now a good thing?
White Sox - rok - 04-09-2018
That's how their fanbase was selling it over the offseason. Lots of them claiming to have purchased tickets to watch the kids play, even though most of their top prospects are still in AA.

I really dont know if i can deal with seeing Michael Kopech regularly on social media and in the the Chicago press.
