i was oh so glad to see the sweepiliciousness of this weekend.  i was kinda bummed after last week, i mean, who wants to see their team lose?  and who wants to see them get swept?  and really, who wants to see any of that happen from the cubs?  either way, great matchups both weekends, and in the end 33-33 is fine by me. 

so, like i have said i love interleague play especially the classic.  i love the trash talking, high-5ing, funny shirt wearing, screaming myself dizzy, singing “Let’s go go go White Sox”… and all around electricity that goes on during Sox-Cubs games!  speaking of the shirts though - 2 really stick out in my mind - there was this one guy that had a picture on one side of his shirt with a pic of the trophy with the words “Sox Parade”, and then on the other side there was a pic of 2 guys under a rainbow with the words ” Cubs Parade.”  the other funny shirt I saw had a caption “Animal Cruelty” and had a beefy White Sox player beating a cub (but a bear, not a person) with a bat. 

OH, and by far one of the funniest parts of the weekend was when I walked past the boys bathroom.  ha! gotta love a paragraph that starts out that way. =P  but there were a bunch of dudes standing around and i found out why - there was this lone voice in the boys bathroom singing, “Go Sox Go” over and over again.  oh, if it wasn’t super gross and he wasn’t peeing, and in the boys bathroom i would have given that guy a hi-5!

but getting to the baseball of the weekend because it was about that after all.  i was so super proud of my boyfriend Matt Thornton! and while Boone Logan, Scott Linebrink, and Bobby Jenks aren’t my boyfriends, they all turned in outstanding performances.  although i would have liked to see big Adam Russell.  ALSO - i was happy to see that after Aramis Ramirez decided to go yard i don’t know how many times last week that he was 0-13 this weekend!  wooooo!  and while the cubs had several times to score our bullpen stayed strong and in the end we served those cubbies a piece of humble pie.  you can’t ever count out the WHITE SOX!
