Happy Friday, Sox fans! Now that you’ve found yourself here, allow me to take a second to introduce you to our brand new series – “The Best of White Sox Twitter.”
For over three and a half years, I have been running our Sox On 35th account and tend to come across dozens of quality tweets on a daily basis. Because White Sox Twitter produces so much great content and has even better personalities behind it, I thought it would be cool to come up with a way to highlight the best of the best at the end of each week.
As part of this series, our crew will be monitoring Twitter closely and compiling your top tweets into an article every Friday. To keep things organized, we’ll place the selected tweets into four different categories as you’ll see below. At the end of each section, you can also expect to find a poll where you can cast a vote for your favorite of the group.
You’re probably wondering, “how do I get your attention so my tweet is selected?” Well, there aren’t specific guidelines to land on this list per se. The tweets we’ll typically come across are the ones that receive a lot of engagement. That being said, they also check a box for being either thought-provoking, funny, informational, etc. so that’s what you should keep in mind. Since we realize there are likely a lot of these kinds of tweets that fly under the radar, your help will become crucial. If you ever come across one that you think deserves to be recognized, send a DM to @SoxOn35th or my personal account @JoeBinder for consideration in future articles.
Now that you have a basic understanding of how things will work, let’s take a look at this week’s top tweets!
Humor
This is where we encourage you to go for the laughs. Since this category is almost always going to be the most selective of the few, you’ve got to be on your A-game to land here. Congrats to this week’s honorees!

Passion, Pride, and Tradition
The root of what it means to be a member of the White Sox and a fan of the team. These are a collection of tweets that don’t necessarily check the box for being funny or overly stat-heavy. Sometimes, they can be emotional takes about how we’re all feeling during a certain game. Other times, they can be as simple as a positive statement or a personal creation like a painting or graphic design. It’ll vary from week to week but I think you get the gist – show us how much you care about this team and the work they put in on the field

I hope you enjoyed this article! Moving forward, I would love to not only hear your feedback but again ask for your help since we obviously can’t see everything that everyone is saying. If you come across a tweet that you would like to submit for consideration, shoot me a DM on Twitter @SoxOn35th or my personal account @JoeBinder!
Thanks again for reading! I’ll see you same time, same place next week.
