	White Sox-Cubs rivalry - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		At the time the White Sox came to town, the Cubs' home field was West Side Park, in an older section of the city which is now the realm of the Chicago Bulls and Chicago Blackhawks.
		The recent (2005) success of the White Sox, coupled with age-related problems with Wrigley, and the presumed expiration of the lease in 2013, raise the possibility of a "me too" situation on the North Side eventually, in yet another chapter of the "facilities" side of the rivalry.
		The Chicago Cubs of the National League play their home games at Wrigley Field located on the city's north side, while the Chicago White Sox of the American League play their home games at U.S. Cellular Field on the city's south side.

	cbs2chicago.com: Chicago news, weather, traffic: Rivalry Dwindles As Cubs Fans Cheer On White Sox
		In a city where advancing to the postseason is a rare event, the North Side vs. South Side rivalry appears to be dwindling this fall as some Cubs fans -- disappointed by their own team's failure to make the playoffs -- are jumping on the White Sox's postseason bandwagon.
		Though the two teams play in separate leagues -- the Cubs in the National League, the White Sox in the American League -- the rivalry is not always a friendly one.
		The city's biggest White Sox fan, Mayor Richard Daley, called upon Cubs fans this week, urging them to root for the South Side team who showed their support for the North Side in 2003 when the Cubs came within five outs from advancing to the World Series before losing to the Florida Marlins.

	Most Hate Filled Rivalry? - White Sox Interactive Forums
		I just dont see as much hatred for the Sox from cubs fans as it is vice versa, plus I would always have to say close teams in the same league would have to be a better rival just because you play them a lot more.
		I do wish Sox fans had more animosity towards the Indians or the Royals or especially the Twins (lots of trash-talking coming from that first baseman for the past couple of years) instead of worrying about the Cubs.
		Cubs fans don't even acknowledge the Whtie Sox for the most part.
