I watched him play, and I still don't believe he's a real person.

Look at all of that delicious parking right across the river that could easily be contracted for games.

On any given weekend Cubs game, there are busses lined up on Irving Park road waiting to take fans back to the suburbs. If suburban Cubs fans can handle taking their kids on a bus full of other fans to Wrigley and walking a few blocks, there is no reason Sox fans can't do the same.

Armour Square park. Armour with a u. But a Martha's Vineyard resident wouldn't necessarily know that.

Psst, Jerry is a greedy real estate person...

Look at the roster Getz assembled in 2024. Even if Getz lucks into a great on-paper hire, it's not going to make a bit of different with the "talent" on the roster.

That's what I've done for a number of years, but it can still be a pain in the ass some times.

I get Mariner's post game coverage on MLB.tv. I want to say a few other teams too.

No, even the opponent broadcast is blacked out. I watch far more out of town baseball these days and any game with the Sox or Cubs game is blacked out for me, home or road broadcast. My sister lives in New Orleans and is blacked out when her teams play Texas and Houston, despite not even being in the same state. It's ridiculous.

Related dragged Jerry down to Springfield to beg for money. Sure Sure.

The 78 is roughly 2.5 miles straight north of GRF. The same Metra line that stops on 35th runs parallel to the parcel of land being discussed. Clark & Roosevelt is also much closer to Union Station, Ogilvie, and the Metra Electric and South Shore lines. Not to mention the same CTA lines that stop on 35th also stop at State & Roosevelt, with the addition of the Orange Line. And the Clark, State, Archer, Roosevelt, 16th/18th, #146, King Drive, and Cottage Grove bus routes all servicing the same 2-3 block area. For someone who claims to keep up with the city, you sure don't seem to understand the basic geography of the city and how much more accessible the 78 would be versus Armour Square park...

Someone hasn't driven in Chicagoland in a while, and it shows.

If I happen to be heading home from downtown around game time I intentionally take the Orange Line as to avoid Sox crowds on the Red and Green. Sox fans take transit, news at 11.

Welp, we're boned.

Says the poster who has repeatedly accused me of lying and fabricating evidence of my own lived experience.

I don't know which is more frightening, Getz's decision making or JR/TLR meddling in said decisions.

Can't wait for Manfred to make watching games less accessible.

Half a billion easily, and one ugly luxury tax bill.

Funny, I know what the view from lot C looks like, because I walk by the park from the Red Line regularly. But I do know the first base line at Old Comiskey faced east, and your site lines for views beyond the park wouldn't be great. I mean, who doesn't love a good view of the IIT smokestack. It's also really hard to see the skyline from 34th street, or from Martha's Vineyard for that matter. But I do love a good passive aggressive sub tweet from someone who can't admit they are full of s%*#.

Wrong direction. (If this is a serious post)

No one expected much from El Duke either. Iguchi was a virtual unknown too. It was a magical season where everything broke right more often than not. Finishing 3rd in 2006 with arguably a better team on paper speaks to just how much of an outlier fluke 2005 was.

Seven playoff appearances in 44 years? No series wins in any of those but one? Flags fly forever, but you aren't wrong.

We are in totally agreement re: the second paragraph. MLB won't stop a move, but I doubt they would OK a move without retaining the right to replace the team in Chicago in the future. MLB would be leaving money on the table for a generation without a second team in the third largest market in the country. The White Sox share of the Chicago market is still viable despite what JR claims, and ceding the entire market to the Cubs when their market share wouldn't drastically expand for years is just bad business.

Jordan's ultimate 'f*** you' to Jerry for breaking up the Bulls dynasty would be buying the White Sox, Jerry's first love, and turning it into a perennial contender doing everything Jerry has refused to do for 40 years... #IfOnly

Let me stop you right there.
