No, buddy!

South Side, sit down!

I keep feeling like the Castillo block around our ankles is going to hold down spending more than anyone has been willing to admit outloud. This doesn't help.

If you can’t enjoy this team after these last two weeks, you’re dead inside lol. This team just beat both SB Teams in back to back weeks, and just worked over the SB Champs in their house, in primtime

Sox fans: We are going to be spend big in free agency! We have a low payroll AND playoff money! Getz:

It’s going to go on forever, yes. This is what’s going to happen

It has nothing to do with the Cubs. This is how teams make a shitload of money off the books now. Ballpark villages are a boon for revenue.

I thought it was an exciting World Series. Any series that doesn't include the Cubs, Red Sox or Yankees is fine by me.

Well, we at least hired from the right place.

Wouldn’t announcer be a downgrade from GM of the team? Don’t sell yourself short.

Honestly, given the choice I would have rather fired Stone. He's such an impediment to whoever he has worked with on a daily basis.

Current MLB managers vote on the Sporting News Manager of the Year. The baseball writers (BBWWA) vote on the other Manager of the Year award. Here's the other Sox managers who won the Sporting News award: Ozzie Guillen in 2005, Jerry Manuel in 2000, Jeff Torborg in 1990, Tony La Russa in 1983, and Chuck Tanner in 1972. Pretty nice company. He did an incredible job this year, especially with only one real starting pitcher. His personality and "play hard" style is all over this team. I'm sure it will be disappointing to many here, but I'm pretty sure he's a lock for the other MOTY award as well.

Doctors say the Pope's cancer was indeed localized with no spread and he will not need further treatment. Great news! NBC NewsPope Leo will not require further treatment after lung su...His doctors said Wednesday the pontiff suffered pulmonary adenocarcinoma, which was localized.

Excitement isn't a commodity to be sold to the public. You can't be the same excited about a 40 win team as a playoff team, or no one believes you. You have to respect your audience knows what their watching.

Again...to each his own...but to me Scriffen's "passion" seemed incredibly forced...and intentionally theatric! Benetti's excitement seemed genuine to me...showed it when it was real! Agree though...he ain't coming back which makes me look forward to Sox TV again!

He's not wrong. Chicago leaders are casting a $900M federal/private investment in rail infrastructure upgrade....and a proposal to privately-finance a stadium for the Sox as a shady real estate deal. This is all money not coming from state and city taxpayers and yet the city reacts with vitriol because the developer would actually benefit from this. And yes, Amtrak should be having discussions with residents over their concerns about the new facility. But are they doing anything than just shouting? Amtrak holds all the cards here, is there a more constructive way to engage with them?

By not hiring you, at least the city saved on paying cops OT working the multiple parades.

Good career and a veteran leader of the 1983 team. RIP

Wonder how many times she witnessed Cy Chen go 7 scoreless vs. The Sox

Good Better Best

Mack will want to go to Bears…4th is too much…let’s see Chargers do solid and move him to Bears for a 6th. On Simmons…was it expensive yes…is he a beast…yes. Elite difference maker on cap friendly deal in his prime (would love if he was 2 years younger but he is literally an all pro machine). This guy fills a huge area of weakness and makes every other guy on the line better - from Sweat to Booker to Jarrett to Turner etc. So fired up!!! I didn’t want some mediocre deal I wanted a legit deal for a true difference maker. I like Simmons more than Crosby. Love the move! Let’s go Bears!!! Let the 2 picks be 32nd overall!

I'd love for John Schriffen to commentate my drunken bar fight.

TOMMY PHAM BARKING BACK, HE'S NOT BACKING DOWN, HE DOESN'T LIKE THAT. WE AIN'T TAKING THAT, I DON'T CARE HOW MANY L'S WE GOT THIS YEAR WE AIN'T TAKIN THAT

This is a really good interview. It's 40 minutes, but it's a great discussion about the Sox stadium situation. Cunningham provides excellent background on the power of railroads, how ISFA operates, location choices of privately-financed stadiums, and why a huge investment in the downtown area is vital to the city. The last 5 minutes or so are about the Bears stadium situation, but it's almost all about Sox new stadium effort.

Give me Jack McMullen. Please, please, please!!!! 2016 Oak Park and River Forest High School grad and baseball star. Die-hard Sox fan; huge Buehrle fan (as a lefty pitcher himself) Radio voice of Marlins Great voice Extremely charismatic Really sharp; stat master, knows baseball Young; could be a lifetime Sox voice. To me, he's a cross between Benetti & Rooney. Give him a listen, he's fantastic!

Anyone replacing Benetti would've been tough but they hired someone who wasn't qualified to do the job. That was always the biggest issue. Nobody on 670 or ESPn 1000 was unfair to John Schriffen and I followed it all very closely. The White Sox got rid of one of the best broadcasters in the country and hired easily the worst in baseball; intentionally derailing a stellar broadcast. It's the appropriate time because Schriffen's contract expired. God forbid Jerry Reinsdorf pay anyone to not work for him. He could've been good at the job. He wasn't. It's on the White Sox for hiring him in the first place but this is market three. He's fair game for criticism.

South side.......................staaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaannnddd up

Was never a fan of his. He was a horrible hire. I just wish they held Brooks Boyer accountable. When was the last time he did anything of value for the Sox? The Grinder Rules was a lifetime ago.

Prayers to Cole Kmet.

The park I really want to see is: The Railyards, I will buy Tray a ticket as a guest.

Anyone who thinks we could have caught Cleveland is crazy.

Now I don't have to hate watch the World Series, nice.

I’m guessing they decided he was gone much earlier in the year.

I just think stuff like that is difficult to correct in season. How has the Orioles offense been since they fired Fuller? I love what the Sox are doing throughout the org on the hitting side. They hit 211 homers, led the AL in walks and runs scored. I'm glad that Getz isn't making any changes.

The line is a completely different animal with Simmons in it. Just gnarly

This is ridiculous. Let me be clear as a long time fan....if this goes on forever, I will never attend another MLB game!!!!!!!

I see Brewers, I'm happy. Unless they fired him because he sucked.

Give me a guy who is a biased White Sox fan first and foremost. No song-and-dance guys or repressed comedians. I want him to suffer as we do when the game goes bad. Be manic and depressed during losing streaks and deliriously happy when we win a game we should have lost.

“Why didn’t they SHOW ME THE MUNE?!?”

Now go get someone with some actual street cred, and not someone who is primarily concerned with the company line. This is one of the premier markets in all of the world. Let's act like it.

“…Photos of Josh Nelson’s home show backlash among the Bridgeport residents…”

Have to possess the versatility to win with homers AND small ball. Adaptability.

One can only hope.
