Yes, it's another attempt by another disgruntled White Sox fan (is there any other kind?) to turn this South Side franchise into a winner! My attempt will take place via the newly purchased OOTP 6.10 (at a discount price, such a White Sox move). I will begin in the 1972 season. That's the first year I started following the Sox, thanks to my father's lifelong allegiance. I'll start with the White Sox roster as it was on Opening Day of the '72 season. That means I have a few good players . . . Dick Allen (the AL MVP that year), Wilbur Wood, an injury-riddled Bill Melton, Carlos May to name a few. I also have youngsters Rich Gossage and Terry Forster to build around. We'll see where it goes. By the way, I'm calling my league The Glory of My Times in honor of one of the best oral histories ever written about the game.
