I've never liked drinking from straws. I like stirring my drink with one, then I toss it before going for a sip and stabbing myself in the eye. Straws are evil.
It's not the White Sox fault nearly every Illinois (and Wisconsin) resident happens to be a Cubs fan. It's just science and winning. The winning probably more than the science but you get the picture.
I know I haven't been living in Illinois that long, but I still haven't been able to figure out why everyone hates on the Chicago White Sox.
