  1. I was not predicting things to end up the way they have the night Tim hit the walk-off homer against the Yanks in the Field of Dreams game. 😞
  2. I love most of this idea, but I wouldn’t want an upper deck in the outfield to block the view of the skyline.
  3. Sure, Jim, that’s exactly in the Sox’ offseason plan. First, cancel the annual fan fest. Second, make the most spectacular free agent signing in the team’s history, and then have no forum on which to show him off and take a bow. Reinsdorf showed up at the Soxfest after the Belle signing. Do the math, Jim.
  4. Faint praise. You’re comparing him to Comiskey, Veeck, and the Allyns, the last two with no money to spend and without a sweetheart lease deal. None of those previous owners had near the resources afforded Reinsdorf, and yet with such an advantage, just one trip to the World Series, and ZERO playoff series wins in the other 41 years. PATHETIC.
  5. 42 years of one mind-numbing, franchise-crippling decision after another. If you take a step back and have a holistic review of the four plus decades of ownership by Reinsdorf, it’s beyond appalling. He’s really been a horrible owner. It would be a dream come true if Reinsdorf joined his dear pal tomorrow and surprised us all with the announcement he was selling the club and walking away as well. Won’t happen, but it’s fun to dream about.
  6. Great! Then we can count on you logging off any moment now and not posting your negativity the rest of the way this season. Win, win for everyone!
  7. I still see his 2019 season and think he can return to that level, at least.
  8. Has anyone ever told you your insights are, well, not very interesting?
  9. Terrific effort by Johnny tonight. Let’s go and win this thing for him.
  10. Sort of like a do-over, build a ballpark they should have built the first time around. One facing the magnificent skyline and with a far more reasonable upper deck in terms of steepness. Imagine the difference in the upper deck experience if you could see the skyline beyond the scoreboard from most of the seats up there wherein you also don’t feel like you’re getting vertigo because of a steep angle. Put the entrance to the upper deck in the middle of the deck, not at the base as it currently is, so nobody would be faced with a huge hike to get to their seats. I think the demand for an upper deck seat would almost do a 180 if all of this were to happen, and would go a long way towards addressing the team’s long-running attendance issues. Seven years left until the lease on the current ballpark runs out, and that’s on a collision course with the advent of new ownership in this same time frame, so as get closer to all of that I can’t imagine how the talk of a new ballpark won’t steadily increase. Should be very interesting!
  11. Why would you criticize another White Sox fan diehard? As goofy as you can be and certainly are, at the end of the day, we know you’re a diehard Sox fan. So are those folks who chose to make the short trip in the middle of the summer to Minny to see their Sox play there in their beautiful ballpark
