The Sox in those days were pathetic because the Comiskeys were the cheapest owners in baseball, and wouldn't sign high-priced players. For years, the only real MLB players they had were Luke Appling and Ted Lyons.

Dang, you're old!
I was a teenager when the Cubs won their last pennant, and they've won four in my lifetime. My Dad took me to my first game in 1936, the year before there were bleachers and ivy.
