<!--quoteo-->QUOTE <!--quotec-->Former Marist High star Tom Gorzelanny arrived in the Cubs clubhouse Saturday and revealed he grew up rooting for the White Sox.
"But now I'm a diehard Cubs fan," he said. "Everybody [in the family] is. Everybody was extremely excited to hear about it. To come back home and play for the Cubs, it's a good feeling."
Gorzelanny, who will wear No. 22, threw a bullpen session and is slated to make his Cubs debut Tuesday in Cincinnati.
Told that Gorzelanny was a White Sox fan, manager Lou Piniella replied: "That's OK. It doesn't make him all bad, right? He's a baseball fan. The White Sox are a good team, and they're our neighbors in town."<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
Prime example of how the Cubs always take the high road, and Ozzie, Kenny, and co. are always the shit-talking douchebags.
