Everyone knows it was former Atlanta Manager Dave Bristol who said, "Only trouble I ever had with chewing tobacco was that the orthodontist said my daughter was going to have to give it up because of her braces." But do you know:

  11. Reader Q&A: Mark Gonzales' White Sox mailbag

    <strong>Ken Williams has the enviable position of seemingly being the only Chicago executive immune from the pressure to win and perform. In recent years we have seen all the Chicago franchises clean house. The Chairman needs to pocket his loyalty and let Williams go and bring in a new philosophy. I don't mean elevating Rick Hahn, either. There is a reason Hahn is still with the Sox. Frankly, I'm tired of hearing how wonderful is everyone in the Sox's organization. The chamber of commerce pitch delivered by those such as Hawk Harrelson and Steve Stone and others is insulting to knowledgeable fans. How many more years do Sox fans have to tolerate more of the same? How many more years does Williams get?</strong> -- Mike Major; Granger, Ind.

  23. The 1959 'Go-Go' White Sox and the air-raid sirens

    They were known as the "Go-Go Sox," hustlers who scraped together a 94-60 record less with bat-popping might than clutch pitching, flawless defense and jack rabbit speed on the base paths. There was Luis "Little Looie" Aparicio, the Venezuelan shortstop and base-stealing whiz, and his double-play partner at second base, plucky Nellie Fox with the ever-present chaw of tobacco in his cheek.
