“Say it ain’t so,”
a kid once asked Shoeless Joe
the year the White Sox turned to black
The same could be asked
of the current Sox cast
filled with the lame, the halt and hacks
So laughter erupts
when owner Reinsdorf instructs
he’ll move the team south to Tennessee
If a new stadium isn’t built
and financed to the hilt
with Illinois taxpayer’s sucker money
But a record-setting pace
in a season of historic disgrace
makes 120+ defeats a bona fide threat
So Jerry, pack your hitless wonders
and move instead to baseball’s dumpster,
next to the more lovable ‘62 Mets.
