What year is it?

The Sox picked up Robbie Alomar once again.

Apparently, Kenny Williams is attempting to bring back the entire 2003 roster.

I am so frustrated right now, I don't even know what to do.

The interesting thing about working in an office in downtown Chicago is that you tend to have a pretty representational ratio of Cubs fans to Sox fans (i.e., about 3 Cub fans to every Sox fan.) Anyway, one of my favorite Sox fans in the office is Jan, who is this short, stout middle-aged woman who swears a lot and refers to the White Sox as "a bunch of bums," even if they have won 10 games in a row. I like Jan. Anyway, here's the exchange we had today:

Jan: Did you hear the Sox made a trade?
Alex (surprised): Really, for who?
Jan: Robbie Alomar.
Alex: Robbie Alomar?
Jan: Yep.
Alex: Why?
Jan: (Shrugs helplessly) Bunch of bums.

Does Kenny Williams just not remember that this team didn't make the postseason last year? What the hell is he going to do next, trade Freddy Garcia for Tony Graffanino?

I think I'd like Jan, too.

Ross, I daresay there's only one person on the planet you'd get a bigger kick out of than Jan, and his name rhymes with Natt Donbeer.
