    These gigantic salaries are killing the motivation to work hard. Robert and Moncada are very rich men while having limited success.
  2. "You can't spend a dollar if you only have 50 cents." ? Actually...building the scouting department, coaching staff, and finding B grade free agents is probably the right way to go for a franchise opposed to going "all in" on the star caliber guys. We definitely need to avoid the over the over the hill gang.

    Sizemore needs to have a man-to-man discussion concerning how fast it can all end. He has been there.
  4. I love having homer...type announcers. There is no market for bad news.
  5. 24 million would buy 1 good player. I can understand that Getz believed the collective efforts of 7 players you name might out produce that 1 player, but it didn't work out that way. Maldonado at 4.5 million is the one that sticks in my craw.
  6. Bill Veeck didn't have the money to compete but never stopped finding ways to entertain the fan. Lousy teams are part of baseball but failure to entertain the fan is inexcusable.
  7. Makes me wonder if the team is being readied for a sale. Hope so!
  8. I will need to adjust my pre-season projection now that we are trading all of our best players.
  9. I don't think you are allowed to say anything positive about Getz. Please refrain from these outbursts.
  10. Be patient...he's been coming on strong of late.
  11. Would not surprise me. The boys look to be rounding into shape.
  12. I don't miss what I don't care about. You should try it.
  13. This was 1972 and Bobby Hull was the "Golden Jet" not an abuser. Hull was a true superhero to Chicagoans. JR has done nothing so offensive to the fan base in comparison.
  14. Did anyone say, "everyone here is stupid"? Personally...I think some here are not stupid.
  15. How so? When I get fed up with an organization, I actually stop supporting it. Some just talk about it.
  16. Bobby Hull leaving was certainly the end of my Hawks fan fandom.
  17. I love paying for MLB and having blackouts for Apple TV. Oh well...I hate to complain.
  18. Amazing how far TA has fallen. That is what's meant by "gotta keep your head in the game."
  19. And right away he makes me take it back.
  20. Yep...like stop using Maldonado...he's toast.
  21. Still watching every game...but for sure disappointed in the poor start. On another note...happy they dropped the gangster celebration after home runs. That's only cool when you are leading the league in all offensive categories.
