I'll say this, we get an Ishbia announcement on Friday and I'll buy a season ticket package that day.

Join the club! White Sox have one of the best stadium experiences with the food and drink available. I have season tickets to all the losers Bears, white sox and blackhawks. Comiskey is definitely the best of all 3.

No one at 35th & Shields has any sort of grasp on how much excitement would be injected into the veins of Sox fans with the news Jerry won't be owning the team anymore. It will be a glorious day, whenever that comes.

But in what context? If the other owners don't like/respect the ideas of JR...they won't care one bit what he wants or how he wants things done in terms of a CBA.  The owners don't need a "bad" guy...this is an entirely different era than the early 90s.  Now if the "bad" guy means tough decisions for the White Sox?  Well...he already is that!  LOL...

I think its more the idea that there might be a stoppage, at which point fan sentiment may turn against the owners in general. Why let that ruin the general good feelings of having new, non-JR ownership?

I think JR soon either gives up control or announces Ishbia will be the next guy down the road a bit. He keeps his shares until he dies. The team instantly becomes more valuable because JR isn’t or won’t be in charge. This will probably increase new stadium chances and at the very least increases the value of JRs shares.

They actually use the price to moderate drinking. I read a paper that showed how increasing the price decreased the number of problems with drunk fans. We wouldn't have to pay sky high prices if dumbasses would stay off the field, stop groping, puking, etc,

Fighting in the stands is becoming increasingly common.  People bringing their petsonal/political beefs into sports fandom too.

How the hell does this post not have twenty laugh emojis? It may be depressing as hell that the meetings have to be between their doctor's appointments and nappy time, but jersey numbers of non-roster invitees is comedy gold.

BTW being on the board isn't much more than an honorary title the way the club is organized. He can be on the board but his would be a lone voice that the others can just turn off their hearing aids to avoid.
