Around SBN: Explaining Jeremy Lin's Early, Surprising Success

South Side Sox, 20 years ago

With the web turning 20 a few days ago, I wondered what the jewel in SBnation's crown, good olde SOUTH SIDE SOX would look like, say if technology was the same now as when the www was in it's infancy.  I figure it would go one of two ways.  Fire up your 2400 baud modems and check it out:

Wish I could give a double rec

"Oh, that's easy. White Sox. I'm not one of these fair-weather fans. You go to Wrigley Field, you have a beer; beautiful people up there. People aren't watching the game. It's not serious. White Sox, that's baseball. South Side." -O'Bama

Confusion breeds success. If they don't know each other, opponents can't have strategy. GENIUS.

Can't see them

My accoustic coupler is on the fritz – doesn’t seem to be able to complete the handshake. Can someone copy it on a floppy disk and mail it to me, or print it out and fax it over.
