  1. I can't imagine Atlanta ownership being like "yeah, go ahead and move to Nashville"
  2. I don't know how true this is. The Cubs are more nationally popular but the White Sox are much more popular in the Cook County working class. If anything, the White Sox are more culturally significant to their part of the city than the Cubs are to any one part of Chicago.
  3. Neither really touches Chicago if the team is winning. That's the thing. We all give Cubs and their fans crap, but in 05 the vast majority of the third largest city in the country had eyes on the White Sox.
  4. As far as I’m concerned if the White Sox go to Nashville, they’re dead and buried. MLB would probably be dead to me
  5. I get the impression the offer just wasn't there. The only way Hahn gets an F is dumping a guy like Cease for a bad haul. C for me.
  6. Sorry Lucas, but you were never going to be on the Sox for life. At some point that big contract was going to come up and only a couple of teams would be willing to pay it.
  7. I held out hope for Hahn longer than others but last year broke me. Now I'm just done.
  8. I make one game a year and this was the one. Screw this team
  9. That dude should have been fired in 2013
  10. Agreed. I'm solidly in "why bother?" mode.
  11. Agreed 100%. I moved to Texas 12 years ago and I honestly can't root for anyone else. Baseball is done for me when the White Sox are out.
  12. It seems reasonably likely the White Sox are sold post-Jerry
  13. This makes sense to me, however Jerry is in his 80s, not his 60s, and the White Sox are his play thing, not the family business. If the family has no interest in the White Sox, don't expect anything to happen while the old man is in charge.
  14. The White Sox and the Bulls hold a pretty special place for me, as both fandoms are cultural. It would really take a Blackhawk size scandal for me to drop either of them (As I did the Blackhawks after the Kyle Beach disaster).
  15. Hahn's probably a decent guy and he's great at negotiating contracts, but this isn't working and we need a culture change. Won't happen under Jerry. We give Hahn a lot of crap, but let's not forget Kenny Williams has been a waste of space just as long. Glad he won a World Series but we have been paying for it with his incompetence for the last 18 years.
  16. These games hurt my soul but I can't stop watching. Fandom is a sick poison.
  17. "Why does Jerry hate @caulfield12?"
  18. My turn: I will have bacon and eggs for breakfast
  19. "White Sox Hire Lyle Mouton as pitching coach"
  20. He could, but I would imagine he wants to play and it may be the best thing for him to get back to his prior normal life.
  21. I was all for the last rebuild but I agree there's no point now since the management is still the same.
  22. I prefer Jake "Big Kahuna" Burger Because 1) That's the burger in that scene 2) It's just a badass nickname
