The White Sox collapse over the last couple of years has been a sight.  Bad management, bad ownership, untimely injuries ... it's been a perfect storm of ineptitude.  Detroit has been one of the best teams in the majors since the All-Star Break, and if the Sox manage to avoid holding the record on their own, it would be a minor miracle.

Will there be another discount tied to their game tonight?  Possibly ... but don't wait to grab books now, lol!   (Or make me an offer privately -- I'm as easy to work with as the White Sox are to beat in a game  ).

Both color Sox have been horrid this year and it's been really bad for the Red ones for a few years running. The only way to even watch games is to pay for NESN @ $30 a month which is or go out to watch a game a local watering hole. Many of the same issues and ownership that doesn't want to spend. Recipe for last place...

My dad is a life-long Red Sox fan.

The Sox are trailing -- can they come back and avoid the record-setting loss?  If they can and win, then there will be an extra 12% discount again on everything (except the Brave and the Bold #54)!

If the Sox lose and set the record, I'll do something a little less festive -- we'll go with an extra 5% discount on everything listed (except for the Brave and the Bold #54).

In addition, everything on Pages 28-30 is now 20% off as well.  Go Sox!

I think you are Carlton Fisk fan.  He was traded to White Sox so you probably stick with that team ever since.  Am I correct?

My dad loved Fisk, and I appreciated him when he came to Chicago.  Before he ever arrived, though, I grew up watching Harry Caray and Jimmy Piersall broadcasting White Sox games on local Channel 44 (before Reinsdorf moved them to a pay service).  Fisk was part of the 1983 team that added a lot of veterans, won a division title, and had some of the gaudiest uniforms baseball has ever seen, lol.

Yes, I remembered that peculiar uniforms.  I already missed Bill Veeck and old Comiskey Park.

White Sox is losing closer to the new record.

The White Sox is officially the biggest loser in MLB history.
