Heads22 Posted May 6, 2005 Share Posted May 6, 2005 Jason and I were talking, and we had noticed a massive amount of threads talking about Brooks and his great ideas. We figured that we could show him our thanks. Instead of having everyone email him and clogging his inbox, we were discussing a letter from the members of Soxtalk that would be hand-delivered to the Sox. Would there be interest from you guys and gals for this? We could do it where people could add their names to the letter to thank Brooks and the Sox organization for taking steps to make the Sox one of the most fan-friendly teams out there and to applaud them for both the winning season and the great ideas that have come out from the Sox this year. This idea is still sort of in its infancy, but I know it's something I'd really like to do. Brooks and the gang have been doing so much for the fans. This is just something we could do (aside from buying more tickets, of course.... ) A lot of members don't know how much he has gone out of his way to help us and other Sox fans. Anywho, feedback would be nifty. Alex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalapse Posted May 6, 2005 Share Posted May 6, 2005 Sounds like a great idea. Brooks has been awesome ever since he got the job. He deserves a little dap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heads22 Posted May 6, 2005 Author Share Posted May 6, 2005 I personally think real names would be a nice touch. We can set it up where I can be PM'ed or emailed if people wouldn't be comfortable putting up their real name, or we can do something else, cause a screen name wouldn't be a real big deal.

Kalapse Posted May 6, 2005 Share Posted May 6, 2005 I think real names would be the only way to go. It would be kinda silly putting our screen names on a letter. Plus with real names you get a little more of a personal feel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest JimH Posted May 6, 2005 Share Posted May 6, 2005 If it's done, you guys should make sure to copy his direct supervisor as well as Reinsdorf. While you're writing him, ask if he can somehow coordinate getting an interview with Dave Wilder for SoxTalk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kapkomet Posted May 6, 2005 Share Posted May 6, 2005 There's actually a lot of different diections that this can take, but for sure, we want to make sure that the proper channels know that we, the general Sox fan, think that the job being done is outstanding.

YASNY Posted May 6, 2005 Share Posted May 6, 2005 I'm not usually all gung ho about something like this, but Brooks really seems to have a feel for what being a Sox fan is all about and has had many great ideas that speak directly to Sox fans. So, count me in. He's doing an ass-kicking job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted May 6, 2005 Share Posted May 6, 2005 Like I said in the earlier discussions. I'll volunteer to deliver the letter personally. Brooks has been all that and a bag of chips since taking over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems he's doing every in his power to get the job done for the sox this year. Every idea he has is pretty much gold in my book. Tip the cap to him.
