South Side Fireworks Man Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 (edited) Not a fan of the La Russa hiring, but as long as he doesn't pencil in one of the worst hitters on the team in the middle of the order as DH day in and day out, he'll be the best manager the Sox have had since 2006 Ozzie. I know, that's a very low bar, but it is what it is. Edited October 30, 2020 by South Side Fireworks Man Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rey21 Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 I’ve never sport hated someone more than I do Jerry Reinsdorf who is truly a POS. If he never lucked in to Michael Jordan we’d probably be talking about one of the worst owners in sports. I cannot wait til the day he’s no longer the owner of my favorite team. We deserve better for investing so much time into this team to only get shitted on by Reinsdorf. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tray Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 Age provides qualities that a lot of young people lack - experience, wisdom and good judgment, among them. Our culture is one where young people no longer respect their elders and discount the value of their life experience. As an older Sox fan I find many of the comments here to be closed minded, short-sighted and on some levels, offensive. Do you also think Steve Stone lacks baseball knowledge because of his age ? As Steve "Mongo" McMichael once reminded a group of vegetarians that were chiding him about the health risks of the fast food on the menu at his restaurant: "You're gonna die too, you know." How about giving the age thing a break ? 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Texsox Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 Tray, after I finish this rotation of the sun I'll be 60 so I appreciate your post and feelings. I think some of our posters have a pessimistic view of how they will be in a couple decades. That makes me a bit sad. It's as if they think their lives are over at 50. Lol In a less harsh light. Tony started managing 40 years ago. I believe the Sox did not and will not receive his best years. Those were after his first tour and before this latest. We will never really learn if a proven hall of fame manager on the downside of his career would have been better than a potential hall of fame manager on the upstart of a career. But isn't that part of the fun of sports? Discussing the possibilities. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
