Texsox Posted August 23, 2023 Share Posted August 23, 2023 I just walked into my home office and saw I had an announcement on my Alexa. I expected to hear the game was starting. I actually needed Alexa to repeat the news because I didn't quite hear it clearly. Then I had it repeat a couple more times because it made me all happy.

hogan873 Posted August 23, 2023 Share Posted August 23, 2023 I was dozing in my recliner with the news on in the background. I had a "procedure" earlier that day (I just turned 50...), and I was taking it easy. I awoke from my doze with a text from my son telling me the news. I was wide awake at that point and immediately jumped online. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's the one I'm thinking that's the longest night ever. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swingandalongonetoleft Posted August 23, 2023 Share Posted August 23, 2023 Wife broke it to me when I got home from work. I kind of thought Rick might be gone after the season, but the fact that it happened in season, and KW went with him, was the surprising part. Also pleasantly surprised this wasn't just a reassignment into a different role within the organization. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Mighty Mite Posted August 23, 2023 Share Posted August 23, 2023 (edited) I was watching the Rays-Rockies game and checked in here at SOXTALK and couldn’t believe what I was reading, had to pinch myself to see if I was really awake and hadn’t dozed off. After that I put the Sox game on at 8PM EDT to hear from Bennetti and if there was any further news or firings or if the Sox were moving to Guadalajara.

Bob Sacamano Posted August 23, 2023 Share Posted August 23, 2023 At the stadium lol started drinking/celebrating heavily. Now with the current news (Getz/Moore), I may need to start drinking again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
South Side Hit Men Posted August 23, 2023 Share Posted August 23, 2023 The news that Tony has returned as Jerry's eyes and ears? 40 minutes ago at home 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wegner Posted August 23, 2023 Share Posted August 23, 2023 Got a notification from yahoo news and quickly scanned the headline. It really only sank in that it said Hahn and Williams and I thought what did those pinheads do this time? Then I realized what I was reading and couldn't believe it. Came hear and the glorious thread was already through 2 pages of comments. And I was happy for awhile. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
