		Eight Men Out attempts to revise that legacy to a degree.
		It seems clear that the players were made out to be the villains in the story, and the movie doesn’t attempt to eradicate any notions of their culpability.
		However, the film doesn’t give Jackson a total out, as we can definitely see that he knew he was doing the wrong thing; he went along for the wrong reasons, but he still did so, and his complicity remains.

		In Eight Men Out, White Sox owner Charlie Comiskey has little regard for his players' well-being, but their response (or the response of a selected number) to throw in with gamblers for the sake of a better payday, doesn't exactly place them in the labor hall of fame.
		Eight Men Out doesn't offer the feel-good experience of Field of Dreams (though they do share one character, "Shoeless" Joe Jackson) or Bull Durham, but its honesty and faithfulness to the complexities of history ultimately make it a more valuable player in the history of sports films.
		Eight Sox players were suspended after the bribes were uncovered, including the infamous "Shoeless" Joe Jackson.

	Eight Men Out
		It is worth remembering that while Comiskey was a typical strong-arm industrialist skinflint of the times, he was not a monster who forced good men to turn to evil.
		The players all signed their contracts and were expected not only to abide by them but to maintain a code of honor expected by everyone in America.
		While the players were virtually indentured servants in those days, powerless against the owners and their big money connections in the courts, the players did have two very powerful forces on their side - the newspapers and the fans.

		The eight players are suspended for life, and Buck Weaver, for the rest of his life, tries to clear his name.
		Based on Eliot Asniof's book, which is a very detailed account of the entire scandal, the film focuses on the eight men who, for various reasons, ended up throwing away their reputations and their careers.
		Certainly the tragic figure in "Eight Men Out" is not Jackson (D.B. Sweeney), who certainly receives his biggest cinematic boost from "Field of Dreams," but rather Buck Weaver (John Cusack).

	Eight Men Out review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		"Eight Men Out" tells the story of the 1919 White Sox, whom the press dubbed the "Black Sox" after the scandal broke.
		But they were making pauper's wages under the dictatorial Comiskey, and when they received offers of $10,000 apiece if they would lose to the Reds, many of the players jumped at the chance.
		D.B. Sweeney's "Shoeless" Joe Jackson is a well-meaning man who finds himself in the middle of the conflict: He doesn't want to hurt the team, but he doesn't want to turn against his teammates, most of whom are on the take.

		Eliot Asinof's detailed book Eight Men Out illustrates how the system of American sports collapsed in 1919, the year the Chicago White Sox threw the World Series.
		While some may feel the film is not as visceral as it should be, there is a great amount of verisimilitude when watching finely tuned athletes telling their bodies to play poorly--heartbreak on the nation's diamond.
		In the early 1920's, the baseball world was shocked by a scandel, when 8 players of the 1919 Chicago White Sox team was accussed of throwing the world series.

		When you reach the end of this book you just can't help feeling sorry for the eight guys who compromised themselves so irrevocably when throwing the Wrold Series.
		No matter how much you know about baseball, this book gives a great background on what being a ball player was like during the first two decades of the century.
		While it is true it is hard to sympathize with today's athletes who seem to be loyal to the highest salary, this book makes it hard not to sympathize with players who were subject to the salaries imposed upon them and whose only recourse was to sit out.
