You're confusing Houston and Boston, I imagine.

Actually..<br><br>it's White Sox.<br><br>We havent been called Black Sox since 1917, thats when the whole thrown game scandal went on. Watch the movie "Eight Men Out" with John Cusack for the lowdown on that.<br><br>and now it seems we have another scandal about the dropped 3rd strike with A.J. Pierzynski and him stealing 1st base. well...he wasn't tagged. sorry...but we'll take it.<br><br>anyway...its been a great October.

Chicago's opponent will be.... the Houston Astros! For the first time in their history, the Astros have won the National League pennant. Congratulations to Houston, and may the upcoming Series be a great one. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... /smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo--><br>
