mad.gif Are there any other White Sox fans on here that dont like Big Hurt going to the Athletics? I understand he is on the downside of his career but I was hoping he would go out a Southsider!

I like to root for the A's they have an outfielder named Nick Swisher who went to high school 20 mins away from here and its always nice to see a player that is 'home town' (the city he came from is the biggest around here and really the only one) so yes i like him going.....what was that book called? money ball?
