  1. Earning a living in journalism is getting more and more difficult. Soon it will be all AI and volunteer generated. It's like Walmart, hire a bunch of cheap pay time freelancers to create content. If everyone is racing to the bottom it won't matter. As far as the timing I'm wondering if they have over 100 employees and the WARN act needs to be followed. It's a tough call, some folks would rather know immediately to avoid unnecessary expenses. Imagine buying a bunch of gifts, taking a trip, then getting back to find out you're being fired. That's not cool either.
  2. And intelligent. Yet you choose to wear a naive sock puppet while posting here. I feel like we're missing out. Where do you discuss politics and I'll follow you over there?
  3. I'll be in Illinois next week. I'll take the over in a heartbeat.
  4. Lol Greg. I've read too many of your posts to really believe you don't know what an echo chamber is. I appreciate you keeping a dialogue going but how about just once having your character be the most intelligent one in the thread?
  5. Getz may have helped himself by showing he's patient and willing to wait for the right deal. One advantage of waiting is the prospects we get are undoubtedly getting a better development experience whenever they are.
  6. X is one of the worst. It's a total echo chamber. I deregister and haven't been back.
  7. I'm buying a ticket to his first start. Said nobody.
  8. I keep reading that headline and trying to remember Cash, what position he played, and how we fucked up his development.
  9. How about Taxpayer Field at Comiskey Park for the new one? I'm warming up to y'all in Illinois buying my favorite team a new stadium. Hell, increase the hotel tax to pay for it. Joking.
  10. The president who has all the federal agencies to get information from says no big deal and the guy who doesn't have any intel is already deciding what he'll do. Hmm. Any fear and anxiety about that? Thanks for boosting the post count.
  11. Orson Wells would be proud.
  12. If you have to think, you are already half a step behind.
  13. Half would be taxed in the US in whatever state he's playing in. His Canada taxes would be 100% credited on his US return. You work in the US and the US takes their money.
  14. Is the stadium itself a money maker? It seems like owning all the land around a stadium you got for free with a thirty year lease is pretty nice. Your investment would be in the development which is earning you money quickly. If baseball stadiums actually earned the owners money every city would be tripping over themselves spending a billion or two opening one and reaping the financial rewards.
  15. On the Sox moving or MLB expanding there?
  16. https://www.cnn.com/2024/12/11/us/new-jersey-drone-sightings-investigation/index.html
  17. The irony is so many players wind up in the suburbs
  18. Interesting thought since they aren't playing in either one of the cities, yet. I'm not certain how much time you've spent in Boston, not while I agree Chicago is great, I've always enjoyed my time in Boston. But I've always enjoyed saltwater harbors.
  19. So upon hearing the news I suspect Crochet was thinking fucking A yes! What were the guys thinking coming to the White Sox organization? Lucky break, earlier route to private planes and better hotels or that's the end of my career.
  20. You could say Getz went elbow to ankle with this trade. I'd rather worry about a surgically repaired ankle on a position player than a pitcher's arm. I guess lots of physicals to be completed before it's really official. We'll never know but this seems better than that might have been expected at the trade deadline.
  21. Say your goodbyes. The one really bright spot in a historically horrific season.
  22. I'm trying to find anything about their leadership qualities and all I find are baseball stats.
