  1. Sounds like a great cause. Good on Lexi and Andrew.
  2. I seem to remember hearing that before they got good...the putrid Houston Astros team that lost well over 100 games and had awful attendance was one of the most profitable teams for a season of all time.
  3. I had lunch with Jerry recently and he told me that you cannot spend a quarter when you are only bringing in a nickel....then he slid the lunch check over to me.
  4. I wish I was that handsome and talented I have no idea what you are talking about
  5. I wish him a really shitty lunch.....maybe a big salad.
  6. I thought it was Juan Disgusto?
  7. Chris Getz....Wonder Kid
  8. To be fair, I believe he actually thought we'd get Joseph Bagiballo, who is a DH/1B at High A in the Pirate organization. It was just a miscommunication.
  9. They shouldn't need too big of a space....Brooks is calling around to the VFW halls in the area.
  10. Like Ebeneezer Scrooge's funeral.
  11. White Sox Winter Fest 2024....We've got a snowballs chance in hell of making the playoffs so come join us.
  12. You and me both, brother. But at least it makes it easy on my wife and son for birthday, father's day and Christmas. I just get some '47 stuff throughout the year and tell them to wrap it up for me later. And I'm always happy....and suprised because I usually forget what I ordered.
  13. I was looking at that very tempting sale yesterday but I resisted.
  14. My Soxmath # of Sox Games attended times 2 Cuban Comet sandwiches but he's not getting another dime outta me...unless they bring back those freshly made waffle cones for ice cream I will now accept my public mockery at the hands of @reiks12
  15. I love the story I heard one time about Vazquez...someone said scouts would watch him during a game and say great stuff, damn great stuff, hey when did he give up 6 runs??
  16. It is a pretty sad state of affairs that we've got 14 pages on an announcer leaving the White Sox and 0 pages on any player being brought in to improve the White Sox.
  17. I found a list from writer C. Trent Rosecrans of Baseball Prospectus of what makes a good manager. In bold after each one is my idea of how Pedro is doing in regard to each of these bullet points: Preparation for every series and every game so they have a better chance of making the right decision during a crucial moment in the game...Nope Excellent communication skills with players and coaching staff....Doesn't seem so Understanding how to construct a lineup both for the short-term and over the course of a season...Uh, No Understanding how to help players maximize their talents and get the most out of their skills...Absolutely a No here Leadership abilities that help them bring people together for a common goal....Unless the common goal is losing, then No Knowing how to manage the different personalities of different players, from the superstars to the utility infielders....Noppity Nope Nope
  18. It's no surprise. Stop by and we'll crack open some Fin Du Mondes. ?
  19. They don't, he went to Detroit.....oh sorry I thought you meant Benetti.
