And on the flip side, look at locking up your young talent to long-term deals early, assuming they will be productive. Not as bad as a Kris Bryant deal but still bad money. Moncada and Eloy = FAIL Robert = Depends on what they get for him. Regardless, I would still take advantage of starting a prospect in AAA to start the season. A team like the Sox with a cheapskate owner can’t afford to lose the extra year of control. Until JR goes bye bye, it’s a strategy that should be employed. I wouldn’t have Meidroth or Colson on the opening day roster.

I don’t know what I would have done, as I haven’t followed free agency that closely. But I do know what Poles has assembled isn’t enough to compete with the big boys of the NFC North. They will win more games but it will be yet another disappointing season.

Imagine losing a state championship because one of your players fouled a guy on a completely off-center 3-point attempt at the end of regulation time. Brutal. But if BR knew what to do against the full court press it probably wouldn’t have mattered. It looked like DePaul could have blown out BR if they used the full court press earlier.

Obviously BR did not practice enough against the full court press. They looked absolutely clueless against it.

My son is the big dork in all orange body paint and a toga. 🤣

Yep, it’s on WCIU (26.1) at 6:00 PM tonight. It’s also available other ways according to this tweet…

Are you trying to start a war with @Chicago White Sox? He and Dark Lord Meidroth will smite you.

Good god. That is hideous. I don’t remember this one at all but retiring it is a great idea. But I just had to post this pic of everyone’s favorite in this uniform…

Just changing the narrative as we go to fit the Sox and their always evolving shitty situation. This rebuild is going south already. Maybe the third time will be the charm?

What another bust. He’s a WR, no wait, he’s a RB, no wait he’s a Return Man that can’t catch the ball as a receiver or return man! I still can’t believe anyone still has faith in Poles. Darnell Wright over Jalen Carter. It’s time to admit that this guy gets things wrong way more than he gets them right.

Fathom is definitely a hater. I think he still has PTSD from Madrigal and doesn’t buy that Meidroth has any sort of power. It’s a fair concern.

Fvck that. Don’t blame yourself for the garbage teams that Getz has orchestrated under the worst owner in baseball. I have no doubt that many posters here could build a better team than Getz, even with the deadbeat owner’s current payroll constraints.

No idea how these guys live on that after taxes, or why the F they would want to.

I’m just not impressed with how Poles spread out his money. He signed a bunch of good or above average players. Zero game changers. Also, just the fact that Poles had to sign this WR is yet another indictment of his WR failures — 2nd rounder for Chase Claypool, 4th rounder used on Tyler Scott, and a 4th rounder wasted on washed-up Keenan Allen. Think about if he used all those picks on OL and DL, assuming he was good at drafting… I am no longer drinking the Poles Kool-Aid. He is on the same level as Getz as a GM at this point. I think this will still be a mediocre .500 team at best even after the draft.

I really am curious what these guys are getting paid before they ultimately get cut loose. It honestly can’t even be that much.

He’s an admin. He has to make sure he sticks around here so you don’t continue on with your never-ending grudges against any and all posters that disagree with you.

One of the worst ST I can remember. Is that 5 or 6 major injuries to pitchers?

We went from Nicky Lopez at 2B to an actual prospect. Can’t blame him.

I can already hear the Curb theme song playing in the back of my head while the Sox are botching play after play in the field or striking out multiple times at the plate.

At first I thought that was supposed to be JR, which would have been funny enough. But when I realized it was just an apathetic old geezer Sox fan, I laughed my ass off. Is this just a Photoshop or can you really buy this thing?

The Gregory Santos trade hasn’t aged very well either.

He’s the guy that mops up the back room at Family Video.

Agreed.

I realize it’s a dying industry and no offense to ChiSoxMike as he may have good credentials that I am unaware of, but even the Sun Times is going to want someone with experience rather than hire anyone off the street with a Twitter account with posts about the Sox. Even though newspapers as a form of media are almost dead, they still have an online presence, albeit a weak one. And even with experience, I bet the pay is crap. Fegan looks like a young dude, but I can only imagine the low pay he is working for. But I’m sure he loves what he does.
