Why White Sox Fans Should Thank the Chicago Cubs
The White Sox like the Cubs have a core set of exciting, young talent. Though they are in different stages of development, each team is more connected to the other than one might think.
When I meet someone from Chicago, the first thing out of my mouth is, “Cubs or Sox fan?” A Cubs response typically will receive a low-key, “Oh. Well, the Cubs have a great young team.” A Sox response will almost always be met with a louder-than-necessary, “YES!”
Live away from Chicago long enough and one may eventually feel like an expatriate. Get far enough away geographically, and all things Chicago are okay. Which is why as a White Sox fan, I’m grateful for the Cubs and wish them well.
