According to Phil Rogers, You Are Stupid

The following statement actually does appear in print in today's Chicago Tribune, a newspaper that continues to associate itself with Chicago despite its blatant disdain for those who live here:

For White Sox fans, the news just keeps getting better and better. They're probably just not clever enough to realize it.

The quote comes from Tribune baseball expert Phil Rogers, who has the right to call us stupid because he's a genius.

If Rogers ever dared to show his face south of Roosevelt, such that he had to defend his work to the human beings he maligns and misleads daily, he'd probably say the sentence is meant to be sarcastic. Or that it's meant to come from Ken Williams, in whose mouth the Tribune loves to put false statements. But we know exactly from whom the sentiment derives, and Phil Rogers is merely the latest sphincter to emit prejudice from that foul tower.
