TaylorStSox Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 QUOTE (OmarComing25 @ Apr 20, 2015 -> 09:20 PM) It's not like we got a lot of coverage even when the Cubs were losing 95 games every year the last five seasons. Barring a dynasty-type run by the Sox, this is not going to change. Right. The Sox will never be popular. Who gives a s***? We have enough fans and enough payroll to produce a winner.

greg775 Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 Boy, the Sox predictably are off to a s*** start, considering all the games in April are against the Central. What's wrong with the bats? Pretty anemic. I assume Danks pitched well? Just now tuning in and checking the box score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigsoxhurt35 Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 QUOTE (TaylorStSox @ Apr 20, 2015 -> 09:21 PM) Jennings was a real good pick up. He's got a good arm. This bullpen is really coming together. Too bad the offense sucks and our 3-5 rotation guys have sucked. Samardzija has gotten better each start after the first two rocky outings.

greg775 Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 QUOTE (Bigsoxhurt35 @ Apr 21, 2015 -> 02:22 AM) How long can we keep saying its early? That excuse is going to run out soon. 6+ games back in the first two weeks. That's f***ing sad. The one time I'm excited for the season were f***ing terrible. It's like Hawk said in a recent telecast, "We need a mulligan." Stoney: "A do over on the season?" Hawk: "Yes, sure." Stoney: "I don't think they'll let us do that."

Bigsoxhurt35 Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 I could care less if we're popular. But we need to start winning some f***ing games. You want fans to show? Start showing a pulse and win some damn games. Also hire a f***ing legit manager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too bad the offense sucks and our 3-5 rotation guys have sucked. Samardzija has gotten better each start after the first two rocky outings. Personally, I never had high expectations for the offense. We have 4 proven hitters and a ton of question marks with little experience. We're starting Conor, Eaton, Garcia, Johnson and Flowers. None of those guys are really proven hitters. This shouldn't be surprising. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the Sox suck this year and attendance drops again, then they will almost definitely be cutting payroll. Edited April 21, 2015 by fathom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigsoxhurt35 Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 I remember hearing on a sports radio show. Would you rather see your team win a championship then suck for 15 years, or be good for 15 years and never win a championship? That's kind of been us lol. Won it all in '05 and had some good playoff teams but lately it's been full out suck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not a good question. Many a good white sox fan lived a long life without ever seeing a World Series win. Nobody can ever take the experience of winning one away. It was more special for us than the vast majority of fans because a lot believed it would never happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd have to take it the way it worked out because of Chicago's sports history in baseball. Nobody had won a WS since the great depression so we had to get that out of the way for the city's sake. Undeniably there's been a lot of bad baseball, though, to go with the title. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
