Has anyone read the wording?
Quote:
Whereas this is the first championship for the White Sox since 1917, when Woodrow Wilson was president and the United States was fighting in World War I;
Whereas the White Sox posted a regular season record of 99-63 and dominated their opponents during the playoffs, compiling 11 wins and only 1 loss, and finishing with an 8-game win streak that included a sweep in the Fall Classic;
Whereas the city of Chicago and White Sox fans have faithfully stuck by their team during the decades it spent in baseball's wilderness;
Whereas a new generation of young fans in Chicago and around Illinois are discovering the joy of world championship baseball;

I'll tell ya who's stuck by as loyal fans... the lonely Cubs fans...
On another note, I've never seen so many whereas's in my life. Is Fall Classic really appropriate for a piece of legislation? And what is baseball's wilderness and where is it located?
I guess the thing that made me laugh the most was the wording of the actually piece of legislation. It's just not lawyer enough for me. Maybe they should have the GDC write it next time.
