We heard that back in november. And it still might not be true. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soxbadger Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 On 1/28/2019 at 11:31 PM, Dick Allen said: I think there has been more insider talk this year than all the previous years I was on here combined, and except for when chili said Herrera was coming in, and then signed a couple of days later, none of it panned out. No one scooped the Nova or Alonso or Colome trades. No one scooped the McCann signing. The best was the guy leaking RH was upset about the leaking and then said decision day was coming two weeks ago. Expand That was my recollection too. My opinion is, its fine if people have information or not. The problem is that in the past people were not here for the likes or their blog. We were just a bunch of White Sox fans who wanted to talk about our team. Some of us played OOTP together, we played Madden, we had softball games, whatever. It was like a group of friends, who had a common interest. Now it seems like people are trying to be insiders for the glory. Which is ironic in a way. None of the posters I remember fondly ever broke news or were insiders. I remember them because they had damn good posts and I respected what they had to say. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will enter the season rated behind Boston unless Kimbrel moves on so I think Cashman has another major move to make. NY media still has a lot of rumors but then again they always do.

whitesoxwinner Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 I cant believe we have to go through this everyday with white sox Dave. I don't understand how dense you guys are. Just because you guys cant put politics out of your life and hate barstool doesn't mean white sox Dave "needs attention" or "doesn't have sources". We might have to make a thread to show every piece of news he's broken to get it across to people. I'm not even a WSD Stan, as I've expressed my displeasures with this offseason.
