I’m thinking the latter but we’ll see. Nightengale’s article is concerning. They knew he was arrested. They chose 1.) Not to disclose this 2.) To hire him anyway Zero fucks are given by JR to anyones feelings. This is a business and his personal playground. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m thinking the latter but we’ll see. Nightengale’s article is concerning. We already were told from Reinsdorf that he won't be fired or punished. As for the idea that he'll resign because he doesn't want to be a distraction, which I've seen a lot of people suggest, I'll just advise that you don't do that to yourself. It would be fantastic, and it's the right thing to do, but we're stuck with this guy, and I don't see a reason to try and believe otherwise. Of course, I hope I am wrong 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rooting for the Ricketts is easier than rooting for TLR and the Sox now, easily. @Balta1701 you better join me as well given how critical you have been. I totally agree with your takes here. You agree Rick Hahn will have blood on his hands if he doesn’t resign over this? Edited November 10, 2020 by Chicago White Sox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. I don’t expect anyone to like this take, but this is a game. A very enjoyable game, but a game nonetheless. I don’t use it to teach my children morals. I use it to be entertained. Ricky made the game suck. I’ll stress morals when I talk about politics, but here, give me the best possible gameplay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rowand44 Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 I really wish I wasn’t so emotionally attached to the Sox cause I hate everything about being a fan of this team. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheBlackSox8 Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 Could it have been a thing where LaRussa was getting canned, because of the DUI, from his advisory role with whatever team he was doing that for recently? And Then Jerry offered him the manager position so he'd have some role in MLB still? IT'S SOOO FUCKING HARD TO RACK MY BRAIN AROUND THIS WHOLE ORDEAL...

A fellow Sox fan and in the office announced that we had hired LaRussa and my immediate, out loud reaction was “What the fuck.” So I wasn’t a huge fan but it did grow on me slightly. But I still wouldn’t take back Ricky fucking Renteria. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orlando Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 The only pr save the Sox could do is have Tony “step away” and release a statement that says something about Jerry taking a chance on him and helping him get his life together by getting him back in the game but with it coming to light , he does not want to bring the unnecessary drama on the organization and will step away to focus on bettering himself.

southsideirish71 Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 Well next up to make this worse. Its when they decide to fill his bench with former sox players. Bobby Jenks for pitching coach is an obvious hire now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this is a real possibility but in the back of my mind I keep thinking.... we're talking about TLR right now. He loves all attention; always has. Guy might be enjoying this.

The Nightengale article pretty much refutes it. If expensive free agents decide not to come here how does that hurt JR. He doesnt care about the media. He doesnt care about the fans. He wants to right his wrongs with his friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoxFanForever Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 Knowing the Sox they will double down on Tony now. Sometimes it is hard caring about anything this franchise does when they constantly shoot themselves in the collective dick. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicago White Sox Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 Now would be an excellent time for a Bruce Bochy detour with Sam Fuld brought on as bench coach and Ethan Katz as pitching coach. Act like it never actually happened and hopefully all is forgiven by opening day. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
