Is it wrong to want the Sox to embarrass themselves?
bmags replied to reiks12's topic in Pale Hose Talk
I'd rather have the bulls. -
Hard to stress how much I'd rather watch Tim Elko at 1st base over vaughn. I don't care that he'd almost certainly K at 45%.

I actually don't even know. With the bulls it felt like "ok, they embarrass themselves, we can shame them into turning this group over". It was a monkey paw, but it did feel attainable. With Getz getting the job with a smarmy press conference by JR, there just isn't going to be a way to shame it this quickly. So I hope that, instead, this is just the remnants of how bad it was from a draft and develop standpoint under Hahn. ANd it was. People talk about the draft, but this is also what it looks like when you punt entire International classes for Colas and Yolbert and Cespedes. But there are some signs of life in the recent draft classes, at least. Paddy has at least appeared to be less lazy, but still too lazy for my liking. But this amount of shutouts, this level of horrid play. I don't think it's good for anything. Certainly when you don't have a Luhnow or someone overseeing the show. -
That's why I don't really care. There is nobody this is "blocking". Our OF prospects are extremely trash in the near vicinity. Can't believe we didn't waitver pick or rule 5 but I also didn't see any I cared about. Misner would have been some fun at least, because he's high variance.

Hell yess thank you past me. Granted - there is no joy in this white sox world, but a good post. A good post.

Billy Seidl hasn’t been very good but damn is he available. I swear he pitches every day.
-
6 Ks on 21 pitches is insane lol.

I think they should have mercy on us and propose an underground stadium. Tunnels around the city so we can walk in peace to the games without fear of being identified as the sickos we are. Never to see the light of day. Protect the innocent.

Rikuu Nishida with an interesting 3 runs scored on no hits and 1 walk lol

WE've always heard about Ramos' big baseball IQ and great mentality. He'll breakthrough.
-
Yeah, I mean as far as the ambitions and management of the bulls, they should be embarrassed as their claim was continuity would improve this unit. But as far as getting to watch basketball, the play of coby/caruso/demar/ayo was actually a respite from the rest of what I could see sports wise
-
I know popular opinion is bulls should be embarrassed and yes they should etc etc no mans land etc etc. But considering how bad sports were, since December Bulls have been a good watch. I can't have too many white sox at once.

2023-24 NFL Season Thread
bmags replied to CentralChamps21's topic in A and J's Olde Tyme Sports Pub
Hoge and Jahns did a bit with Kevin Fishbain where they argued for WR, Pass Rush or OT at nine. To discredit WR, they brought up how few of the top ten paid WRs were first rounders (which will change a lot next year) but also how few were super bowl winners. I really can't stand that argument. So anyway I put this together below: Top Ten Paid QBs and Super bowls total 2 Top Ten Paid RBs and Super Bowls total 0 Top Ten Paid WRs and Super BOwls total 2 Top Ten Paid TEs and Super Bowls total 1 Top Ten Paid LTs and Super Bowls total 1 Top Ten Paid RTs and Super Bowls total 2 Top Ten Paid Gs and Super Bowls total 0 Top Ten Paid Cs and Super Bowls total 2 Top Ten Paid DEs and Super Bowls total 0 Top Ten Paid DTs and Super Bowls total 2 Top Ten Paid OLBs and Super Bowls total 1 Top Ten Paid MLBs and Super Bowls total 2 Top Ten Paid CBs and Super Bowls total 3 Top Ten Paid S and Super Bowls total 1 Top Ten Paid K and Super Bowls total 2 There's a lot of problems with this. For one, KC has won 3 of the last 5 super bowls. The avg age in the league isn't that old, and to be highest paid you'll need to be on second contract. Also, if you were highly paid 3-4 years ago, likelihood is you may be cut now or are no longer highest paid. But all that aside...WR had more super bowl winners than Edge and LT!!!!! -

biggest question to me is how unique is MHJ as a prospect vs just "very good receiver". If you think you'd never get this good a shot at a player like that within a few spots, you do it. If it's just "we like the receivers this draft and want to add one this year", It hink you keep next years picks because 2nd round receivers have been the gold mine recently. -

I don't know what to think. But last year, at least the week before, the idea of them getting Wright really started to crystallize. Maybe they do value these receivers as specifically special outside normal top ten ranges and go get them. But I would be surprised and it would have to fall just right as a team like the cards could trade back and trade up pretty easily to beat the bears offers. -
I think biggest issue is we struggled to get reports on his stuff to judge
-
To be fair I think we thought he’d rake in A and A+ before stalling. I didn’t expect him to be so abysmal last year. hope he good

Ronny Hernandez swings a pretty good stick

Next year spring training sign idea: SAID
-
honestly though I think their workouts are geared for aesthetics and not function.
-
what the heck how would they have fired them before 2 years of evaluation?
-
This is how grifol talks, imo. He tries to say a sentence, rhetorically defines it, and then we're off to the races. I'll continue to work it, I appreciate the feedback.
-
Well the thing about playing through an injury is whats an injury, its an injury of the body, and the play is well play he did before, so the injury played the way we say to always play.

You know who would be a perfect fit for this offense? Jacob Gonzalez.
