In sports, there are Hell Weeks. Weeks when organizations send players — plus other employees and executives occasionally — through the torment just to see what their people are made of and if they’re fit to be a part of what’s about to come. Then in sports, there are also Weeks From Hell. Which is what the White Sox just went through.
Not to be confused with one another, as weeks go, the latter is what all orgs try to avoid. They often are the break end of a “make-or-break” season, they too often extend long beyond the season in which they destroy.
