  1. Don't stop now boys ... the Silver Streak did crash in Chicago afterall
  2. If you're going to be judged vs. past performance, who wouldn't want the Sox job? 62-100 >50% increase. Love it
  3. Deadly serious. Since when does the State of Illinois care about spending money they don't have at the expense of 'taxpayers'? Drop in the ocean. Might as well get a new stadium this time.
  4. As taxpayers, who fkn cares if they extort us? They waste billions of dollars a day on stupid things. It's never ending and only going one way. At least this time we get a brand new stadium... what's the problem?
  5. Think this headline says it all: Loser Loser: The Chicago White Sox Was this a case of a deer in the headlights? First-year general manager Chris Getz might've been overmatched here. With a historically bad team (they are on pace to go 40-122 entering Tuesday night), Getz had a few highly attractive trade candidates, notably Luis Robert and Garrett Crochet, star-caliber players under team control for a few more years. He held both. This was a seller's market, too, with teams paying a seeming king's ransom for pitching. Did Getz lose leverage because Crochet publicly said he wants an extension if he's traded? Maybe, but having this happen isn't exactly a ringing endorsement of the general manager. Neither Robert nor Crochet will be around the next time the White Sox are contenders. Further, the consensus seems to be that the White Sox didn't get enough in their other deals. And, again, this was a massive seller's market, with far more teams looking to buy than sell. What exactly was Getz waiting for? https://www.cbssports.com/mlb/news/2024-mlb-trade-deadline-winners-and-losers-dodgers-make-key-moves-but-baseball-blockbuster-never-develops/live/
  6. I don't get this in all honesty, he's a total bust, has never demonstrated any ability that a team would take a 'flier' on -- not to single out this post, just mean in-general, the guy sucks, he's the worst of the three and no one will have interest in him, no one ... hope he's saved some money because he's hangin' with Cespedes soon.
  7. They are all playing video games and smoking dope in ILoy's mancave
  8. Even if he's ready to play, he's still no good
  9. What a fking joke this organization is ... Jac was by far best available player, future all-star, generational player potential, absolute baller at Florida. They pick this guy because he's a hometown/area code player (read: much cheaper). GMAFB
  10. Can you talk your way out of the Hall of Fame?
  11. Why would you fire him? It's a ghost ship, who gives a flying fk. Also not getting anyone good to come over ...
  12. ILoy is a total piece of sh't -- guy's unwritten "training" regimen is to get hurt so he can play video games on the couch and smoke weed.
  13. Grade-2 hip flexor ... the latest in a 'strain' of avoidable injuries due to poor training staff preparedness and general player apathy. Totally avoidable injury. Regardless of the injury, getting rid of him now is not selling low. Owed $8.33 this year and next, club option for $20 for 2026/27 My view -- rip the bandaid off and get what you can. Others?
