Proposal to the Board
Because it’s the greatest post and truce in the history of the board. Without ideas like this, we would become Lord of the Flies (i.e. WSI).

Proposal to the Board
The Milwaukee Brewers have a total tax payroll of $153,579,922 for the 2026 season...good for 19th and $50 million more than these current White Sox. Not to mention the new Rays Angels and Rockies ownership groups will likely improve those franchises. Only the Guardians and Rays can survive/even thrive, in the Bottom 5 in terms of payroll. Not that spending big actually guarantees a WS winner....it increases odds dramatically.

Proposal to the Board
The person who said they need to leave the Rate is Jerry. Jerry wants to move to the South Loop. Jerry hasn't invested in the Bridgeport neighborhood (unless parking lots are an investment). Jerry has made billions and watched his net worth explode since he bought the franchise.

9/25- Sox vs Rockies, 6:40
I will always remember Berman for his 'Oh NO", what a tool.

Proposal to the Board
I love that you think you get to decide what the Sox need. Under this regime and stadium they are literally last in MLB in revenues, and we have all seen 45 of the last 46 years end in failure. You get what you pay for after all, right? I get you have no standards and are easily satisfied with Perfectly Fine Field, but I would actually like to see this franchise have an opportunity to be competitive on an annual basis, and not just when the stars align. Th8s team NEEDS more revenue if it wants to be more than an occasional post season surprise.

Rockwell?

9/25- Sox vs Rockies, 6:40
because their fans are just as arrogant and demanding without 26 WS titles on their ledger maybe it's Sweet Caroline or having Fenway lore jammed down our throats or ESPN circle jerks for them like Berman and Gammons

A lot of people sitting behind them having their sightline blocked.

Take it to the Railyard thread you (lovable) bozos.

Colson's future with the team
Dude doesn't even have two years of experience. It makes zero sense to dump him when he is essentially a minimum wage player for 2 more seasons.

I didn’t know the thread title was missing “stadium” at the beginning of it

Proposal to the Board
"Ishbia should leave the Rate alone for a while and focus on making the team and the neighborhood better. His priorities though are focused on his self-interests and expanding his personal wealth." Have you read Ayn Randy b4? To get to the 3 million attendance that JR so desperately desires, your "convenient experience" would be totally ruined. Also, for many years, the Dodgers and Angels had some of the most affordable tickets and best attendance...the Dodgers still do, in fact. All that despite the high cost of living in SoCal. And maybe it was partially a trade off for many fans who couldn't access their games on tv for a number of years due to a previous owner's runaway greed to pad his own pockets on the backs of a historic franchise through that crazy RSN deal. But you certainly don't have to run middle class fans and families off by making the sport completely unaffordable, like a trip to Disneyland, either.

They’ve scored 55 runs in the last 10 games? The lowest runs they’ve scored is 3.

Proposal to the Board
I met some guy with a Sox hat from Lake in the Hills a few weeks back at Greek Islands. I was surprised that folks from far NW burbs travel to see the White Sox play, but good choice of a restaurant as a halfway stop.

Proposal to the Board
Probably the same reason we're not allowed to put the admins on ignore.

Colson's future with the team
That doesn't always work. Hrniak attempted to turn Sosa into a line drive XB hitter to take advantage of his speed. Even Meidroth's K totals are way up this year compared to 2024, but he has shown surprising pop as a result.

Proposal to the Board
why is this s%*# stickied lmao
-
Colson's future with the team
That's a very quick timeline...should he be able to handle it? Sure, defensively. Would rather play Meidroth Antonacci in middle infield for 3-4 months and take more time assessing his readiness with a wooden bat. Let's see him dominate Birmingham, at the very least.

Proposal to the Board
The White Sox do not have not needed a new stadium (for 40 years?). I doubt some of the complainers have been to many games or parts of the Rate other than the cheap seats on the 500 level. The Rate is like many other stadiums, you get what you pay for. Personally, I take advantage of premium seating based on my age and financial ability, but there are many other areas in the park where fans can enjoy the outfield concourses...and I buy seats in the outfield (162,163) quite often. I love the location on the South side, easy parking next to the stadium, and not having to drive back downtown heavy traffic. Ishbia should leave the Rate alone for a while and focus on making the team and the neighborhood better. His priorities though are focused on his self-interests and expanding his personal wealth.

It's really too bad that Chase isn't playing on Hispanic Heritage night.

Proposal to the Board
What SHOULD he do then? A GoFundMe collection for stadium funds? JR already attempted begging in Springfield... Asking the Pope to do a special fundraiser? Over the last decade, the only owner who put winning first over everything else was Peter Seidler in SD...who was then criticized by the majority of his billionaire brethren for driving up FA prices and acting irresponsibly for a small market franchise.
-
Colson's future with the team
I'm talking about at some point next season. The point is don't keep Colson around to see if he improves. If he starts out bad again next year Roch should be up by summer and Colson benched
