Swing and a Miss

One of the reasons we rushed out of the CIA was because Big Guy got a call from Axelrod telling him that the Chicago White Sox were on the White House grounds and being given a tour.

This was very exciting, because, as Big Guy told me in The Beast on the way back to the White House, he is a life-long White Sox fan, even though he grew up in Hawaii, some foreign countries, lived in New York and then moved to Chicago for the first time in the late 1980s.

He remembers watching the Sox as a child, with an againg Tom Seaver and a young Bobby Bo on the field. Granted, that was 1986, and he was an adult, but who's going to argue, especially when we have a vice president who claims he played left field for the Black Sox in the 1976 World Series and a secretary of state who lived in Chicago and Little Rock and claims to have been a life-long Yankees fan, and both throw like a girl?
