Texas vs. Clean Laundry

He's been a Cardinal fan since birth, an Astros fan for a week, and now he's a White Sox fan...

Since there is no loyalty or logic in who the boys cheered for in the NLCS (if you have no idea what I'm speaking of, you'll need to head to the archives to find "The Astro Turf is Always Greener" and "When the Pujols Hits the Fan") I figured I would beat Chris at his own game. And I won.

Last night, game 4 in the World Series:
Will - "Are the Cardinals playing?"
Me - "No."
Will - "Who is playing?"
Me - "The Astros and the White Sox."
Will - "The Astros are from Texas."
Me - "Yes."
Will - "I am from Texas too. I'm going to cheer for the Astros. Are you cheering for the Astros?"
Me - "Not a chance. I'm sticking with the team from the region that has four distinct seasons." Then, seeing my opportunity to outsmart Chris' Texas Card play "Will, what do you have on your feet?"
Will - "White socks."
Me - "Yeah. Do you like clean, white socks?"
Will - "Yes." He thinks for a minute, "I like clean socks. I'm cheering for the White Socks."

And we score one for laundry, the White Sox, and the absence of reason. Go Chicago.
