South Side Hit Men

We're going to need a bigger boat brain.

He was signed on a minor league deal, wasn't even on the 40 man roster during the offseason. I go by the Chicago White Sox Website, don't give a rats ass about Trade Rumors Dot Com. Feel free to make your own list.

I hope Kenny takes away Tony's Cardinal Red Stapler and moves his office down to the basement of US Cellular

Triple Crown winner Citation in 1948. Bowler Don Carter is the first human after signing a $1M endorsement in 1964 for Ebonite. It's possible, perhaps likely, Lew Alcindor, aka Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, was the first $1M team sport athlete during his time at UCLA. Lew most certainly took a pay cut to join the Milwaukee Bucks upon graduation in 1969 ($1,4M / 5 years) after rejecting the ABA New York Nets offer of $3.2M. Was already financially secure via "Papa Sam" Gilbert at UCLA to pass on $1.8M. John Wooden's Pyramid of Success

Once you get to a ridiculous greedy twelve team format, the regular season is rendered an 162 game exhibition, like the other North American professional sports leagues. Should be a six team playoff, Best of three for the 2nd and 3rd best Division winners, winner plays the top team in a best of seven series in the LCS.

Al Bundy > Dylan Bundy

Tony would start him as #1 or #2 if the playoffs started today. "He's a veteran, a fierce competitor. I went to war with him ten years ago. He's the first guy I'd call to go to war now."

Yep. He may lose some weight next year if he's interested in trying for a final deal, otherwise, he gets $38M the final two years plus the MLB Per Diem to gorge on Pizza and Beer. Didn't understand the rush to extend him in July. No interest in extending or even a QO offer for the pitcher 6 years younger.

It may take $500M to buy a loaf of bread by the time the contract expires.

The Twins are scum, they ruin the world. F Jim Kaat F Jackie Martling

Hope Rocco pencils in Jim Kaat on Sunday and the Sox beat him like a drum.

Nah, they can keep him, Kirby Puckett, Calvin Griffith, Josh Donaldson and the rest.

Pretty shitty they are honoring him with the White Sox in town. The Twins have always been a shitty organization, owned, operated and fielded by a bunch of asshole scumbags.

RALLY ENGEL

Hoping the traveling secretary gave Joe Kelly a plane ticket to Uzbekistan and he's quarantined for 10 weeks.

A Jerry Reinsdorf, Rick Hahn, Tony La Russa Production

He made Tony look bad in Cleveland by throwing strikes. He is now banned for life.

FTFY

Ricky knew how to manage the core. Team would be over .500 if he was managing this season, even with the injuries.
