As a citizen of the great city of Chicago, I find it impossible to root against the White Sox. The White Sox organization has been much more consistent, in my lifetime at least, at putting a winning ballclub on the field.
I believe that if the Tribune company ever tries to close down Wrigley Field that you will have a protest from every corner of the globe.
My version, of course, is not this flag-waving, let's all get on the Jesus train and ride out of hell. I'm not that kind of guy. It's an embrace that life is good, worth living and yeah, it's not easy, but there are more pluses than minuses.
We've turned into a whining society.
All I can go on is my own value system.
I think God is the most unexplored territory in rock and roll music.
