Yes, we know that this is taking a while!
As many of you know, we here at Notinhalloffame.com are slowly generating the 50 of each major North American sports team. That being said, we have existing Top 50 lists out and we always consistently look to update them when we can and based on necessity. As such, we are very happy to present our post 2022/23 revision of our top 50 Chicago White Sox.
As for all of our top 50 players in baseball we look at the following:
1. Advanced Statistics.
2. Traditional statistics and how they finished in Major League Baseball.
3. Playoff accomplishments.
4. Their overall impact on the team and other intangibles not reflected in a stat sheet.
Last year, the White Sox did not make the playoffs, and we had no new entrants. For the first time ever, the only change was lowering a player based on the past year!
As always, we present our top five, which saw no changes:
1. Frank Thomas
2. Ed Walsh
3. Luke Appling
4. Ted Lyons
5. Red Faber
You can find the entire list here.
The only change was a first for us. Tim Anderson had such a bad season, that he dropped from #43 to #48. We have dropped players one spot before, this is unprecedented, especially for a team with as long as a history as the White Sox.
We thank you for your continued support for our lists on Notinhalloffame.com.
Last night at UFC 297, we learned that Frankie Edgar would headline the 2024 UFC Hall of Fame Class.
Nicknamed “The Answer”, Edgar has a career record of 23-11-1, and won the Lightweight Championship by beating B.J. Penn at UFC 112. He also won eight Fight of the Night Awards and holds wins over Urijah Faber and Cub Swanson.
We here at Notinhalloffame.com would like to congratulate Frankie Edgar for earning this impending honor.
1955 PRELIMINARY RESULTS:
Thank you for all of you who have participated in the Pro Football Hall of Fame Revisited Project, and if you are unaware of what that is, simply, we acted as if the PFHOF had their first class in January of 1946?
We have completed the first nine years thus far.
For “1955” a Preliminary Vote with over 130 players whose playing career ended by 1949. We are also following the structure in that players have 20 years of eligibility, and if they do not make it into the Hall, they are relegated to the Senior Pool.
Each voter was asked to select 25 names from the preliminary list, with the top 25 vote getters named as Semi-Finalists.
A week later, the voters will be asked to pick 15 names from the 25 Semi-Finalists, and next after, they will pick five from the remaining 15. We will continue this process weekly until we catch up to the current year.
Please note that a significant change took place, allowing for voters to submit less than the allotted spots. A glitch did not allow for that to occur in Coaches/Contributors. That will be rectified in the future.

Next Saturday, we will be posting the results of the 1954 Semi-Finalists of the Pro Football Hall of Fame Revisited Project.
Thank you to all who contributed, and if you want to be a part of this project, please let us know!
Millions of people from all around the world love to watch or take part in sports. Playing for a local football team can be the ideal way to stay in shape as an adult and allows you to unleash your competitive side during matches and competitions. Other sports fans love the thrill of watching their favorite team play from the comfort of their couch where they will cheer them on every matchday and hope that an impressive win streak can be enjoyed across the weeks of professional play.
All sports tend to involve excitement and a healthy dose of luck while relying on the skills and athleticism of individuals or teams. If you are a sports fan, you may be looking for enjoyable pursuits to undertake in your free time that provide similar levels of excitement whilst captivating you in the same way that playing or watching sports does. The following article describes three fun activities that are sure to be enjoyed by millions of sports fans.
Many sports fans find that similar levels of excitement can be gained from playing at online casinos as can be enjoyed in playing or watching sports. The thills and uncertainty of playing a few games of roulette at sites such as kingjohnnie casino gives players an experience that can be compared to the highs and lows present in a match. Some casinos will also feature games that are heavily influenced by sports to directly appeal to those fans. Football and basketball-themed slot machines are incredibly popular with sports fans who wish to give their gaming a true sporting experience and can be found on many online sites. Make sure to choose a site that has a range of games that are sports-themed and remember to compare the range of welcome bonuses that many sites offer new customers.
If you play sports regularly, you may seek some fun weekend activities that help to keep your fitness levels high while also allowing you to relax and unwind. Many sports fans find that taking a biking trip out into the countryside can be the ideal way to spend a free weekend. If you do not own a suitable bike, choosing one for your needs is important. There is a wide range of well-designed bikes that can be suitable for trail riding, downhill racing, or hybrid bikes that can cover a range of different terrain types. Choose a bike that suits your intended type of ride and head out into the countryside with some like-minded friends for a weekend of fitness and fun.
Finally, if you are passionate about football but prefer to watch the game rather than take part, it can be ideal to remember some of the key moments from some of the classic World Cup tournaments that have been held every four years. English fans will remember the excitement and subsequent heartache of the Italia 90 World Cup where they lost their semi-final on penalties to the West German side, who would go on to lift the trophy. American fans will fondly remember USA 94, where they hosted the prestigious competition for the first time. Pick a tournament with superb play and matches from your chosen country and relax with world-class football action.
