Milkman delivers

Yeah man, you’re really stretching on this one and you don’t need to. There are plenty of things to hate about JR without this one. La Russa is half Hispanic. So his former EVP was black, and the last three managers were Hispanic. And as much as I’m sure Getz will suck, he has worked his way up the ladder internally.

I’m no fan of JR, but the argument seems completely disingenuous to me. I won’t mind if MLB runs him through the ringer for it, though. But I’m actually curious who he’s referring to.

Please explain who you mean.

What if he included minorities in the interview process and still hired all white guys? And then, what if those guys were in fact the most qualified? I know you’re being somewhat facetious, but wouldn’t racism still be blamed for that? And in the above scenario, would the correct answer be to intentionally hire a less qualified candidate simply to have a minority hire in there? All of this of so stupid. He should have absolutely interviewed multiple candidates, but the only criteria should be their potential to do the job well. It appears he did not.

Are they intentionally putting the worst product out there? Beckham does seem to be the next option.

I read it as heavy sarcasm. No?

I honestly don’t know what happened after the actual shooting as I never read into it. I doubt she was treated as a suspect by park staff, so she would have opportunity to move the gun somewhere else whether or not she was transported by CFD or by herself. But I would doubt she would drop it in the park. Probably just into a purse or other personal property.

Did she leave via ambulance or self transport? If it’s the former, she could just move it to a purse or somewhere before being treated. If the latter, she could have done any number of things with it.

Na, he’ll say the right stuff just like Grifol, and it’ll even win over some posters here. You’ll see a decent amount of posts telling you to give him some time and opportunity to prove he’s incapable.

Yes, I believe that’s the story I heard back then.

I’m not opposed to it, but I’m not sure if they’re willing to do it. Allegations are basically taken as the proven truth now.

If she was able to ditch the gun, which it seems like she had ample time to do, I wouldn’t expect charges to be approved by the State’s Attorney.

Attorney for alleged criminal denies crime = didn’t happen? ?

The Ligues were also Cubs fans, if memory serves.

Oh boy, maybe the average fan really is a sucker. I told a friend about this news earlier. He asked why the Sox would do this since they need Clevinger to compete next year. Hard to believe people still think they could compete.

How could he when they don’t know who he is?

So he’s still a shitty product?

I’ve seen this mentioned many times on this site. A Google search comes up with an incident involving Anderson. Is it all about Donaldson mockingly calling Anderson “Jackie” after Anderson already expressed his desire to be the next Jackie Robinson?

I’ve wondered the same thing about reps.

Every part of this sucks. They raise someone to an unearned spot, and have to now replace him from an intentionally narrower list of options.

No, I really thought they were supposed to. Yes.

Were the Sox obligated to interview people for the spot?

What?

Again, yes. It’s possible to conceal weapons in fat rolls. It is not uncommon.

One of the three involved females said on Facebook before deleting the post that she was there as part of a teachers’ outing. They’re not gonna strip search anyone or have some fatty flip up their rolls. Just meh, go on in, I’m sure it’s fine.
