I just wanna go on record and say the Pope is never going to happen, and if it does it would be planned several months if not a year in advance.

Stray thought but I don’t know if I’ve ever seen a professional sports team that seems to like genuinely love each other like these guys do.

Also, they’re beating Cleveland.

I was 11. Currently rocking my first born to sleep.

Being a Sox fan sucks 99% of the time but I can feel pure childlike joy beating a bad team in a 3 game series and that’s awesome.

I think Ashland is what separates the West Loop from the West Side imo.

I will only recognize the Sox as the southsiders if they move to 75th and Cottage Grove. In all seriousness, I’m very much a person that would lose at least some interest if they moved somewhere that would legitimately cause them to lose the southside identity, and this is very much not going to happen on Roosevelt and Canal. If they were moving to like Fulton Market I could kinda see the issue. And if they were moving to Arlington or whatever, fuckem.

Unironically yea please do

I lived in Bridgeport and love the neighborhood, but the fact is that the teams been there for a hundred years and there’s f*** all to do after a game or before a game.

Really need to win this series, but getting swept would be a disaster.

Theres also not a single guy on the team that I’m comfortable with saying that yeah they’ll be solid at that position for the next 2-3 years. Some of them will be, some won’t. They need time to sort that all out Vargas is closest, I guess? But even he’s still a bit unknown, and at what position?

When you look at how Montgomery, Antonacci, Murakami, and (prior to the last week or so) Peter’s have been preforming, it only further justifies not going nuts at deadline imo. if those guys were all still clicking and they were losing games 11-10 I’d get it.

Hawk and Benetti were very different in style, but had a lot of the same things going for them that are also my biggest beefs with Schriffen They both loved and had a deep understanding of baseball They loved the White Sox They both had out there personalities. Hawk being a half-insane cartoon character, and Jason being an affable and proud dork. I honestly think Schriffen will be a fine broadcaster, but he doesn’t have those things and he never will, and when you’re calling 162 games it just doesn’t work.

That’s honestly the thing that puts me off Schriff so much. It like he’s reading press copy from Brooks Boyer for like 75% of the broadcast it feels so much more disingenuous coming from him than it ever did with Hawk, because at least with Hawk you knew he’d genuinely get in a fist fight if AJ Pierzynski asked him to. Schriffen is just some guy.

Damn talk about “remembering some guys”
