 exciting season on the south side of ChicagoMay 09, 2008
This was a great series for Chicago and actually may have even gotten a few of the rival Cub fans to root for the White Sox. As a Yankee fan I always prefer to see the Yankees in the World Series. But I enjoyed seeing the White Sox win. They had the greta closer in Jenks and the fire and gambling style that Chicago probably hasn't seen since the go-go Sox of Aparicio and Fox in the 1950s. 1959 was the one year that they were able to top the vaunted Stengel Yankees but they couldn't overcome the new Los Angeles Dodgers. Playing the World Series in the LA Colliseum in 59 allowed for amazing single game attenfence records. Too bad they couldn't have done better in that series. But who thought that it would take another 46 years for them to finally get a championship! I would have to say that after the tough Workd Series loss to the Big Red Machine in 1975 I didn't think it would take the Red Sox another 29 years to finally claim another championship! But nobody talked about the Babe Ruth junx back then, The Red Sox had a great team. They were just unfortunate to be up against an even greater Reds team.
The White Sox steamrolled their way through this World Series after getting past the tough playoff competition in the AL. Fast but not as fast as the 59 Sox, this team had much better power hitting and batting power in general. They definitely earned their World Series rings. But Chicago will not be a truly happy baseball town until the Cubbies finally win! That could be coming if they stop complaining about the jinx of the goat.
I thought it was nice to see the Houston Astros finally make it to the World series. Too bad they couldn't put up a better fight with their killer bees. But the White Sox had a tough road having to get by the Red Sox and then the Angel team that managed to get by the Yankees one more time for Mike Scoscia.

 Very Good Review of the 2005 SeasonAug 09, 2006
This DVD focuses on Chicago's 2005 post-season run, and primarily on the World Series. While there is some review of the regular season, it is brief. Pick up the "Sox Pride" DVD for a more full recounting of the regular season.
Still this DVD is entertaining and well worth the money.

OutstandingJun 08, 2006
MLB films does a phenomenal job with this production. The audio mix is fabulous, featuring muliple broadcasts of the same plays which totally captures each moment. A must have for any baseball fan, not just White Sox nation.

For every Sox fanFeb 27, 2006
I love this video. It presents the very best of the 2005 season and playoffs including great world series highlights. If you are old enough to remember Minnie Minoso and Billy Pierce you will love seeing them as they comment on the 2005 world series.
I was so delighted by this very professional DVD that I have ordered the DVD's with full game coverage of the 2005 world series available in late March 2005
