Sons of Sam Horn (SoSH) is a Boston Re Sox-oriented online baseball forum. It began in 1998 as an offshoot of the Red Sox forum at the Dickie Thon Fan Club, which itself was an offshoot of the message boards at the now-defunct fastball.com. The site's name was inspired by former major leaguer Sam Horn, who played for the Red Sox as a would-be phenom in the late 80s (and whose career was ultimately a disappointment), and is a wordplay on the notorious Son of Sam serial killer.
