Chicago Cubs 7 Chicago White Sox 1
Well that sucked. I'm not going to sit here and say that I'm not bothered by the fact the Cubs swept the Sox this weekend, but at the same time, the weekend didn't go much worse than I expected it to. As I told Silvio before the series started on Friday, all I wanted was for the Sox to take one of three this weekend.
Considering the way the Cubs play at Wrigley, where they've now won 14 straight and are 32-8 on the season (32-8!), I don't see how any one could have expected anything different. I mean, we saw nothing new from either of these teams the last three days. Going into the series we all knew that the Cubs were really good at home, and the Sox are streaky.
They're either winning seven in a row, or losing three in a row. It's frustrating as hell, and it gets really annoying, but that's just how this White Sox team is this season and we might as well get used to it.
By the time these two teams meet again next weekend at U.S. Cellular, it could just as easily be the White Sox routing the Cubs in three games. At least it better go that way.

I agree completely. They're making it sound like the World Series just finished up on the Eastern SPorts Network today...but weren't they saying the Cubs are in huge trouble just after getting swept themselves?
I think this proves nothing. If the Cubs sweep again NEXT weekend, then I'd be a bit more inclined to say something, but at the same time, I wouldn't freak out if I was a Sox fan right now.
