White Sox Plus Astros Equal Snooze?

According to the Indy Star:

The four-game sweep by the Chicago White Sox produced the lowest TV ratings for a World Series. The Series, seen on Fox, attracted an average of 11.1 percent of the 110.2 million U.S. households with televisions, according to Nielsen Media Research Inc. That was down 30 percent from last year, when the Boston Red Sox beat the St. Louis Cardinals for their first championship since 1918, one year after the White Sox's previous title.

The news is kind of surprising when you figure it was the Astro's first series and Chicago's first in eons. I assume when Clemens got hurt a lot of people gave up on the Astros (I was kinda' in that mindset too). Hopefully we'll see Clemens get another shot at it next year.

Did you notice there seems to be no Cubs fan left? It looks like they all defected to the ChiSox camp (let the hate-mail begin!).
