Getz is operating differently and that's at least interesting
Stinky Stanky replied to bmags's topic in Pale Hose Talk
Methinks the honeymoon is still going on, from these posts. It does seem different. I’ll argue with you all about Sheets. If he was a legit LH power bat, which he isn’t, his fielding has improved to where he’d be adequate. Says I anyhoo. -
Sox looking at building in South Loop

I like it. JerryBuilt Stadium was the best I could come up with. (WWI reference) -

You sure about this? I always thought Manhattan Island was a big rock that was solid support for all those skyscrapers. -

Semi kidding here and I might be an old English teacher (or not) but in the above sentence, what part of speech is "Ass?" -

I come from the north and I would still have to get through the Loop to reach the new site so there's no benefit for me. Ride public transit after a night game? Thanks, but no thanks. -

It's the other way around, if you are an investor. Right? Minority report, but I like GRF and I don't mind where it is. -
You got me interested, so I listened to it. Steve also blamed Jordan and Jackson for demonizing Krause. That deserves a mention.
-
JR has been a media consultant short of knowing how to deal with people for 40 years, Why change now?
-
Let's boo him too.
-
Showcasing him? It wouldn't bother me if they were.
-
Or the lazy coach has to recognize this and go in a different direction at crunch time. Like draw up a play or two.
-
I have your back on this one, Lip. One stupid remark does not warrant the death penalty, IMO. Not while others in the public eye can say hurtful things and continue to work in their chosen field. I would welcome Thom and think the negatives could be handled and would quickly fade.

2023-24 NFL Season Thread
Stinky Stanky replied to CentralChamps21's topic in Alex’s Olde Tyme Sports Pub
Not that I think he's a top guy, but Fields didn't have the time to make plays that Love did. Got whupped both sides of the ball. Still, can't say he hasn't improved, but three seasons is a long time. You decide what they should do. I'm too old to worry about it. Anyhoo, saw some great young QB's today, but our guy isn't one of them. -
I love Coby, but since people started calling him a superstar, he's lost his radar and become a turnover machine. Take a deep breath and steady yourself, kid. Let's all do the same.
-
Ed Wood in the dugout to replace Pedro. Just might work. Too bad Kasper wants radio only. He’s better at TV, IMO.
-
Made himself better. Like Jimmy Butler, like Joakim Noah. Do the coaches on staff ever make players better? He's still not a great point guard even if he shoots from Trae distances.
-
Better fit on a contending team than here. More power to him.

What are the Sox trying to do here, really?
Stinky Stanky replied to Chick Mercedes's topic in Pale Hose Talk
He was a shopping center developer and we could have seen him sell off players to pay the gas bills when all those shopping centers went bad (like most of them have).? -
Doesn’t change anything in my first post. He was a better GM than anything since regardless of his attitude toward the owner or anyone else. I’m out of here.
-
He acquired a lot of good and better pieces by draft and otherwise to fit around the GOAT he was handed. I respect what he did. Does it matter that he got along with JR? Would you be happier if he didn't? Do you know of any GM's who don't?
-
If all Krause did was say "yes" to JR's whims, what else would I conclude? Do you say no to your boss a lot? There's such a thing as carrying the cynicism too far.
-
Are you saying that Reinsdorf scouts, drafts and trades? Seriously?
-
Jerry Krause is looking less and less like an object of ridicule and more and more like a GM considering what's been trying to do the job since he departed.
-
Like that great line from A Christmas Story, "Got a whole goddam team of utility infielders." But if you watch the TBS version, it's been cut out. Merry Christmas.
