I've been a White Sox fan since 1956. My uncle, Manny Opper, used to have a TV show in Chicago back then called Manny Opper's Bleacher Pals, where he interviewed ballplayers before the game. He became friends with Sherman Lollar, and my love of the White Sox was born. Little did I know in 1959 when the Sox won the pennant that it wouldn't happen again until 2005, but my passion for the team has remained strong even though I've lived in the DC area since 1975. I definitely see the world through Black, Silver, and White glasses and am not ashamed to admit it. Although I have friends and family who are Cubs fans, I am almost as anti-Cub as I am pro-Sox. I guess it comes from having grown up in Morton Grove and having had to listen to Cubs fans whine about their precious little team and park all these years. Go Sox!
