Since I am both a sick fuck and a white sox fan I decided to make a rom featuring the great white sox teams of yesteryear all on one rom. Here is a brief description of each team for those of you who are still reading.
1906 White Sox- Known as the hitless wonders. This team actually did somehow manage to win the world series. Great speed. Zero Hitting. Excellent pitching A good challenge team to try to win with.
1917 White Sox- The last white sox team to win a world series. Pretty much like the 1906 sox except with slightly better hitting but still no power.
1959 White Sox- The last white sox team to make it to the world series. A solid balance of pitching and hitting.
1972 White Sox- Two Words: Dick Allen. Two more words: Nobody else. Actually also have Wilbur Wood as a pitcher. One of the last great knuckleballers.
1977 White Sox- Known as the Southside Hitmen, Plenty of hitting with pop. Not much pitching.
1983 White Sox- The team that coined the phrase winning ugly. Good pop. Good starting pitching. Not much of bullpen
1993 White Sox- Much like the 1983 team with a better bullpen.
2000 White Sox- Great Hitting. Not much pitching.
And last but not least an all-time great team that has all .400 hitters in the starting lineup. and Barry Bonds, Babe Ruth, Sammy Sosa and Mark Mcgwire on the bench.
Let me know what you guys think! I think it has a good mixture of different types of teams.
Great idea, mind if I put it on the ROMs page?
By all means, that is why I uploaded it.
I think it would be a great idea if everyone took their favorite team and made a best of rom. Like best of yankees or best of mets, etc.
Yes that's great, I could see it now, it turns out the have RBI in hell, but you have to use one of 2 ROMs, best of Yankees or best of Mets, Noooooooo.
man, being a die hard cubs fan, sorry gantry, i would love to see the best of cubs vs. the best of sox.
'let's get some runs!'
Is Not Gantry like the bizarro Gantry? Everything Gantry does, you must be the opposite.
OK, works for me
I think that I might make an all Athletics rom. I am looking into that right now.
I love the A's. Damn i wish they had a better staduim.
me to. The A's have been my team for as long as I can remember. My first game was in 84.
Al Davis should be boiled in oil for what he made happen to the stadium in oakland.
Zito is pitching a gem as we speak. 7 innings with only 3 hits, 2 walks, and 0 runs. 5 Ks to go with that. Nice pitching line!
Lets GO OAKLAND!
