I will free admit that I was rooting against the White Sox in 2005, but part of me was glad they won so my Grandpa could see his team win a title before he died.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
Fair enough, but I just have a hard time understanding how these allegiances sometimes skip generations, especially in this town. Most of my family grew up on the South and West Sides but were all Cubs fans, while I grew up on the North Side, so sometimes it's hard for me to make sense of how other families function.
