What in holy hell is going on?
Piven and Cusack grew up in Evanston -- the same town I grew up in. Nobody fucking roots for the White Sox in Evanston. They're full of shit. They're doing this shit because they feel like they have to because of their celebrity. But it doesn't give them a pass. Fuck all of them.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
I don't know how else to explain this to you. Cubs fans who don't live in Chicago don't hate the Sox the way we do. They are not exposed to the constant douchebaggery.

Evanston is Chicago.

John Cusack doesn't live in Evanston.
<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->
He grew up in Evanston. If he doesn't know better, he's an idiot.
<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->
I'm roughly Cusack's age. I grew up in Homewood. When I was 10, my second favorite team in baseball was the White Sox. When I was in high school, in 1983, I watched Julio Cruz score the winning run that clinched the division. I rooted for Bannister, Dotson, Hoyt, and Burns because I thought their second half run was amazing. When they lost in the playoffs, I was not upset, but that was ONLY because I was jealous of them, and didn't want the Sox to win before the Cubs did.
When I went to college, I went to U of I, where everyone was a Cubs fan or a Cards fan. I realized at that point, that I hated the Cardinals more than any other team in existence. I didn't hate them before I hung out with their fans though.
It wasn't until after college, when I moved back to Chicago, when I started listening to sports talk radio, when I started listening to Hawk Harrelson, when I started dealing with Sox fans on a regular basis, when the internet made listening to their idiocy much easier, that I began to hate them with the white hot fury I hate them with now.
Cusack, Piven, et al, never have gone through that last phase. Had I moved to California after college, I'd still hate the Sox, but nothing like the way I hate them now.

Wow, all that White Sox love and the Cubs still hired you.
