  1. If course there is the misdirection. No new taxes for the stadium because we pulled money from this other pile. Oops, now we need a new tax for that pile. So no new taxes for the stadium. It's basically how state lotteries didn't create a net gain for schools. They dumped the lottery proceeds into the pot, but then stopped putting as much from taxes.
  2. As a current out of state fan I was ripped for having that point of view. I believe now it's a local decision and whatever the voters decide is fine with me. But rewarding this franchise with another stadium annoys me.
  3. Then be willing to have the team move if they get a better offer. Match the offer or risk having Chicago be a one team city. I'd like to see a bidding war between Arlington Heights and Chicago for the team.
  4. Since I don't pay much in taxes each year to Illinois I'm in favor of a special tax assessment to everyone living in Cook County to pay for great stadiums for the Sox and Bears. I think about $250 per person should do it. We don't want a Coyote type thing to happen. And yes, that was sarcasm.
  5. This is when JR is next level genius. Hey Nashville, you don't need a new expansion team. We have everything an expansion team would have. No stars. No wins. But with over 100 years of expansion club like experience.
  6. Nashville called, said they want a MLB franchise.
  7. Why did you set up Wilson for a save situation? Pedro "Honestly I expected Kopech to give up the lead. I was as shocked as anybody when we still had a lead in the 9th."
  8. I keep telling myself that's the last fucking Sox game I watch this year. Fire Pedro so these players realize they can keep playing like s%*# and someone else will lose their job. That will light a fire under their guaranteed contract ass.
  9. Let Wilson give up those runs in the 8th like a smart manager. WTF?
