		<description><![CDATA[I really hope you&#039;re being facetious with the title of the article...because it makes me cringe reading it...and you really would have to look up the &#039;plural&#039; of enemy?!?!?  Really?!?!?  Of course, I&#039;m just being facetious here as well...

White Sox...ahem...Bitch Sox fans seem to take on the personality of their reporters...Jim Cowley and Hawk Harrelson are two of the biggest tools in the business, and the Bitch Sox fans are probably the biggest tools of fans I&#039;ve ever had the mis-pleasure of dealing with.  They hate Minnesota and the Twins because they get praised by the National Media for being what they are: a model franchise, etc...etc...(and we own them), while Chicago and its fans get recognized by the National Media for being what they are too: tools.  Its a prime example of jealousy.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[You bother are obviously truer Batlings than I am and BG would be proud. But I&#039;m with you now.

Don&#039;t get me wrong, I dislike the Bitch Sox as well. But until I read the trash those s0-called fans were spouting, I didn&#039;t have that &quot;white hot fire&quot; level of hate. I generally found their manager, their GM, their dysfunctional clubhouse and their arrogant-for-no-reason fans more amusing than anything else. 

Now? Even though I realize people say stupid things on a message board, especially at points of extreme frustration, I say screw it. Bury them all.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I have to agree with talldrinkowater about how White Sox fans (and players, and coaches, and Ozzie) are always making excuses and shifting the blame away from themselves and onto the other team. The venue is no longer an excuse for why the Tighty Whities don&#039;t do well in Minnesota so they try to make it sound like Jim Thome is the traitor to the team.

NEWS FLASH: Thome would have loved to finish his career in Illinois but the Sox wouldn&#039;t sign him because they wanted to have more fielding positions and be able to plug in different players for DH. Perhaps the fans might be better off complaining about the ChiSox front office for letting Jim Jam go.

Fact is, the White Sox are a good team, not great. They don&#039;t fare well against other AL Central teams, especially the Twins in recent years. It&#039;s time for them to stop making excuses, look at themselves, and fix their own problems if they want to be a serious contender in September. If they keep faltering like this, the Twins will have a lock on the division long before the season is over.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Honestly, I have far more hostility for the Bitch Sox than I do either the Indians or the Tigers. For years their fans, their management, etc. have whined about how they are a better team than the Twins, but their record shows otherwise. It gets tiresome. While I hope our guys can hang on to win our division, I would much rather see either the Tigers or the Indians beat us in the division over the White Pox any day.]]></description>
