South Loop stadium name ideas
You guys are in rare form. I'm in need of some humor to counter the creeped out feeling I'm getting from this with billionaire Jerry and even wealthier Related Midwest being the beneficiaries of our bucks. Stay strong JB.

Hendriks signs with Red Sox
I think that I posted on this before but a Stage 4 diagnosis is less dire in circulatory cancers. The 5 year survival rate for Stage 4 lymphoma is 74%.

That’s what I was saying re: Fox and anything involving Democrats. Thx for the reminder on Daley. I didn’t recall.

Just saying, Rahm Emanuel was mayor 2011-2019, not Daley and I'm fairly certain that Obama prevailed on him to support the pain -in-the -ass that the Olympics would be. Fox News may have been against it for reasons of political consistency, but I was right with them.

I'm pretty sure I've heard Governor JB say "not us." And I hope he sticks to his guns. And I think your pipe dreams about all the loop workers who now won't hop on the subway for a 10 minute ride to GRF, will be walking to ballgames are just, well, pipe dreams. Besides, the current park is quite serviceable and already well located. Be prepared for another cliffhanger with threats from the team and a romance with an ot-of-town destination except that this time, it just might happen.

Getz is operating differently and that's at least interesting
Burger may have been the last straw.

Trading for an injured LaVine? That hasn't happened since the Bulls did it when he was out for ACL surgery. So never say never. But it's too late for now. Speaking of great trades, I did see Gary Harris on the ORL roster. Wasn't he part of the McDermott trade? And that was Gar/Pax.

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.

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?

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.

Benetti to Tigers
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
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.

White Sox, Getz have more work to do before spring training opens
Seven pages into this beatdown fest and I need cat videos for at least an hour.

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.
