"They have this Juan Bernhardt.  His first name sounds Latin and his last name sound German.  And Otto Velez -- his first name sounds German and his last name sounds Latin.  You would think it would be Juan Velez and Otto Bernhardt."  -Sox announcer Harry Caray describing two Toronto outfielders

Yankee Practicality for Our Sox? 
 by George Bova
 The 2009 Sox struggle to even climb over .500 but is all hope lost?  A bit of Yankee practicality would go a long way towards resolving what has transformed the futility of what was the old loser Sox into the new championship Sox.  WSI's George Bova has unique reasons to hope for the best!

Exclusive WSI Interview
Mike Hershberger Speaks!
Pitching, defense and timely hitting were the hallmarks of the Sox of the Go Go era and young outfielder Mike Hershberger was square in the middle of many of the winningest of these Sox teams.  He was there for three consecutive 94+ win seasons and the heartache of finishing second all three times.  Now Mike shares his memories from these memorable years on the South Side.  It's another EXCLUSIVE interview by Mark Liptak for the totally biased Sox Fans of White Sox Interactive!

 Totally Biased WSI Features!
April Report Card
Nobody knows hosiery quite as well as a sock ever could so who better than WSI's Senor Sock to evaluate our Sox with the first month of the season now complete? The Toast of Argentina is back and wants to know who wrote this creampuff schedule and can the Sox handle the harder slogging still ahead?
Deja Vu All Over Again!
Certain ballplayers will make the Sox team while others must fight for a spot on the roster. Senor Sock has been a Sox Fan nearly as long as he's been a white sock so forgive him if he notes when history seems to be repeating itself with who the Sox fit on the roster and who gets sent off to the minors!
A Sox Truth
Sox Fans are a breed apart, causing lots of confusion for the outside world trying to understand what makes us tick. With the changing landscape of baseball both in Chicago and beyond, could 2009 prove to be the year the Sox finally break out and become appreciated for what they are -- and what fans of the team are not? WSI's George Bova notes those standing in the way of progress do so at their own peril!
Joe McConnell speaks!
Few broadcasters have a more extensive resume than Joe McConnell, but none more noteworthy to Sox Fans than the five season he provided the radio call of our Sox transformed from perennial also-rans into division champions -- Chicago's first in twenty years! Beyond mere stories of Bears, Broncos, or even his current duties covering the Boilermakers, McConnell shares memories of a glorious period in South Side baseball history filled with names every Sox Fan knows so well. It's another EXCLUSIVE interview by Mark Liptak for the totally biased Sox Fans of White Sox Interactive!
Reunited!
Our Sox are reunited with starter Bartolo Colon... but are they feeling good? Yes, Peaches and Herb were happy together but WSI's Senor Sock has been a Sox Fan almost as long as he's been a white sock so he's not so sure about this Colon acquisition! Is this the second-coming of Pamela Anderson with Tommy Lee? Nobody would know better than the Toast of Argentina!
