Twins Geek has some thoughts on the Chicago Bitch Sox and their pitching staff. Batgirl has nothing to add except that she hates the Bitch Sox. She hates them with white hot fire. Why? Because their players, management, fans, and media refuse to give the Twins credit for being a good baseball team. They bitch and moan about how unfair and ridiculous it is that an inferior team keeps beating the pants off them, while the Twins go on about their business and beat the pants off them, and Magglio Ordonez cries into his bitchy, bitchy little socks.

In 2002, just after the All Star Break, when the Twins were ahead of the Bitch Sox by about 800 games, Batgirl was watching a Bitch Sox game on WGN. And that bitchy announcer, the Hawk--whose cries of "He Gone!" every time someone strikes out are intolerable to Batgirl's delicate ears--said, “I don’t care what anyone else, I think the Bitch Sox are going to come back and win the division.” Except he didn’t call them the Bitch Sox. But he should have, because they're bitchy and they did not come back. They lost the division by a lot. So did we then get props in 2003? No. Did we then sweep them at home in a key September series at which Batgirl cheered very, very loudly? Yes.

As Batgirl's husband so wisely says, you could fire every player on the Bitch Sox, plus their coaching staff and management and still have a character problem.

Batgirl wants props for her boys. That’s all she asks. And when her boys continually beat the pants off another team, she gets angry when that team continually announces its superiority. Put your playing where your bitching is, boys.
