As Jim Thome gave his post-game interview and wiped the shaving-cream from his face I felt as let down as an ugly girl at prom. I wanted to blame someone for this loss. Anyone. But as I gave it some thought I wasn’t sure exactly whom the blame should fall on.
The candidates appear to be:
- Ozzie Guillen
- Matt Thornton
- Bobby Jenks
- Kenny Williams
- Paul Konerko
So I’ll outline the suspects and you can decide for yourself. Because just like the ugly girl, I still want to go dancing, and if finding a scapegoat for this gut wrenching loss is the only way to move on then that’s what I’m going to do.
