Hope that makes you feel better about yourself and/or the Sox. Yay 20 year old misperceptions.

"Detroit" and "Phenomonal City" in the same sentence? Wow. The following are cities that are better than or equal to Detroit: -Calcutta, India -The Flavela Shanties outside of Rio De Janeiro -Bartertown, that crazy post-apocalyptic city ruled by Tina Turner in "Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome". -Hiroshima, Japan, Circa 1946. That is all...

Haha yeah I'm even from Detroit and will defend it to the death, but Chicago is a better city in at least 3 out of every 4 ways. However, the Pistons, Tigers, Wings, and (holy shit) Lions are all better teams than their respective Chicago counterparts. Just joking about the Lions.

Kenny said at the end of this year that the Sox were embarrassed and that it would not happen this year ... check out Mariotti's column in the Sun-Times, which he notes that Williams has been thoroughly embarrassed several times this year already. The Sox will be fighting to stay out of the AL cellar this year instead of contending for a World Series title ... gnarly.

The Cubs and the Tigers are the good guys, because they live in civilized cities/parts of town, and have a fan base that doesn't include Limpdick Daley. There, I said it. Boston, Detroit and New York are phenomonal cities. Chicago could be great, if it weren't for this leadership. Still, they are on the right part of town, free from all of the Irish inbreds that are Sox fans/members of the Daley clan/patronage army.

The Cubs as the 'good guys' that's a good one Vise. I guess that makes the Red Sox and the Yankees the good guys too.

"HOW THE F**** DOES A TEAM IN A HALF-RAZED CITY PULL THAT OFF!?" Uh, because their baseball team is far and away, miles and miles better than the White Sox. But more importantly, their general manager is actually intelligent, and their farm system is deep enough to offer a package the Marlins wanted. Tough cookies, go Tigers!

Sorry Sox Fans, but this is just one more for the good guys. I love the Tigers and the Cubs, and hate the White Sox. W ho could love the team the Leperchaun King supports? Doesn't Mayor Mumbles have season tickets? Didn't he used to live down the block from the park, and partake in racial beatings after games? I hope the Cubs outbid Kenny Williams for Fukudome too.

Laugh it up, Detroitist. Laugh it up... There is no Detroitist? Go figure. HOW THE F**** DOES A TEAM IN A HALF-RAZED CITY PULL THAT OFF!? My Kenny Williams love-in is officially over.
