Is the singular sox or sock?

[roary]

How do you refer to one player on the sox? A red sox player, a red sock, or just a red sox. Everyone always has difficulty with this, so maybe we could institute a board-wide policy for some fun? Heck, maybe it'll eventually be accepted as the norm. I say: Red Sock.

sox

I always type Red Sock, then delete it and type "Red Sox player". It is really annoying though. It doesn't work like it does with other teams.

I have no idea. Maybe you should email Theo and ask him Actually, I doubt he even knows.

I would just say 'Red Sox player' also. I don't think there really is a singular...

Bah, you guys know nothing!

[yawkeyway]

Red Sock. I'm with you roary!

At last, someone agrees with me. I think I found my new best friend.

Red Soxk, lets stick with that. I'm with yawkeyway and Roary.

Yes! Its tied, 3-3 now. I guess this is one of those things that'll never get solved really.

[Doomrider40k]

No, it's actually a Red Sox. At least that's how the globe spells it.

[jarjar]

Maybe we should ask the Chicago White SOX Sock fans.. haha

i just try to make myself not sound like an idiot and say i like that one player who plays for the sox, not i like that red sock/sox player

I believe it is Red Sox, although I generally say "Red Sox player" to cover myself.
