ESPN Forgot the White Sox Exist

They've since taken it down, and I wasn't quick enough to grab a screenshot but as I was looking at ESPN's MLB home page earlier, I noticed something strange.

In the SportsNation poll on the side, the question was asked, "Which is your favorite Chicago Sports franchise?" Your options were:

  • Cubs
  • Bulls
  • Bears
  • Blackhawks
Notice anything missing?

I know the White Sox are seven games under .500, but is it really that bad, ESPN? The Blackhawks make the poll yet the White Sox are left off? I mean, last I checked they're the only team in the city of Chicago to win a championship in the last 10 years. Well, except for our beloved Chicago Rush Arena Football team.

But asking any team in this city to live up to the Rush is ridiculous.

Ballhype: hype it up!

Look at it this way: At least the Chicago Fire weren't listed.
