It's a shame when you think that Kyle Tucker is a better baseball player than anyone the White Sox have had in years - probably decades.

When the f*** are we getting a new banner?
South Side Fireworks Man replied to ron883's topic in Pale Hose Talk
Nobody currently on the Sox deserves to be on a banner. The new banner should feature Dick Allen and Bill Melton. -
Dick Allen, Tommy John up for HOF Consideration
South Side Fireworks Man replied to Balta1701's topic in Pale Hose Talk
What a jerk. -
Very sad indeed.

I was just going to post the same thing.

He had a certain swagger and a flair to everything he did even small things like the way he would adjust his batting gloves, or that little flip of the mitt when he would catch a ball at first base. The man was just naturally cool.

Dick Allen, Tommy John up for HOF Consideration
South Side Fireworks Man replied to Balta1701's topic in Pale Hose Talk
Happy that Dick Allen got the recognition he deserved many years ago by finally being voted into the HOF. Too bad Tommy John didn't get voted in as well. He is also deserving of the honor. -
Dick Allen was not only a great hitter, but a great baserunner, an excellent defensive first baseman, and one of the smartest ballplayers ever.

Should have been inducted a long time ago. Dick Allen, a great ballplayer and most exciting White Sox player of all time.

They would have beaten out the A's with a healthy Bill Melton batting behind Dick Allen.

Dick Allen, Tommy John up for HOF Consideration

I'm in my mid 60s now and don't really get excited over sports figures or athletes anymore. But when I see clips of Dick Allen, it brings back that same thrill as when I was a kid. He was my baseball hero, and to me he will always be the greatest White Sox player of all time. Dick Allen belongs in the Hall of Fame. -
Sad to hear about Bill Melton. If only he didn't fall off that ladder the Sox would have probably won the pennant in '72, and he probably would have gone on to have a greater career as a good defensive slugging third baseman. I remember one day I went to a Sox game and it was so hot the third baseman was Melton. RIP Bill, you will be missed.

White Sox traded Tommy John and Steve Huntz for Dick Allen. -
Good riddance.

Venable named new Sox Manager-per Merkin
South Side Fireworks Man replied to Vote4Pedro's topic in Pale Hose Talk
Too bad we don't have Roland Hemond running things and making trades. Is there a Dick Allen on our horizon? -

Two fans jumping onto the outfield and another one throwing something at the Cubs outfielder. -

Wasn't he part of their young championship core? ? -
