Of bullets, bygone dye jobs and the bullheaded Jerry Reinsdorf

Team chairman Jerry Reinsdorf is overseeing the mess that is the White Sox. (Jeff Haynes/AP)

The instinct, brief as it might be, is to describe what’s happening to the White Sox as biblical, as if they’ve been visited by a series of plagues. But that would imply that the Sox are innocent bystanders instead of the cause of the locusts, the pestilence, the hail and the 28 games under .500. 

OK, bullets landing in the bleachers at Guaranteed Rate Field the other night would seem to suggest that somebody up there hates the Sox, but, hey, you try being a higher power and watching this much bad baseball.
