Church and Baseball, what else matters?

Brilliant bit of analysis by Sir Monocle:

the Chicago White Sox fan actually resembles your typical American Roman Catholic. He may rarely attend mass - and may even regularly criticize the Pope. But you can bet a million dollars, notwithstand all his complaining, that you'll never find him in the pew of a church of any other denomination.
(I, of course, just as I believe the One, Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church, would never dream of believing in anyone other than the Yankees, even though at times bad men have ascended to the pap.... er, ownership.)
