Hawk did not retire
Doesn't Hawk live in Arizona now or somewhere like that? In that case 6-8 hours for "home" games (including flights) would seem realistic.

2023 Spring Training Thread
I propose a managerial challenge to ejections. Double or nothing. If the managerial challenge is upheld, the ejection is overturned and umpire is ejected. if the challenge is rejected, a second player (of the opposing manager’s choosing) is also ejected.

2023 Spring Training Thread
Doesn't seem unreasonable. Kind of surprising that they're taking a somewhat logical approach and tinkering, rather than taking some draconian all-or-nothing approach to a rule.

Last Comiskey Documentary...
That was a wonderful documentary. some of my earliest memories are in that old park, probably from during the ‘86 or ‘87 seasons. I still have this memory of being scared at the fireworks, and I couldn’t have been more than 2 or 3.

Promotions- Bad Ideas Only
Guess-the-MRI game. Review MRI’s of soft tissue injuries from 2021-2022 Sox teams. Match the MRI to the player to receive a free voucher to the Emergency Room X-Ray machine at Rush, the official hospital of the Chicago White Sox.

Promotions- Bad Ideas Only
First 10,000 fans receive a White Sox laser pointer. Luxury Tax night - any cumulative food / drink tabs over $233 over the course of the evening get charged an additional surcharge on their bills. Bat Flip contest in the new Bud Light club (or whatever the f*** that thing is on the 500 level)

Rodon to the Yankees, $162 million
...I would half-jokingly suggest that JR told Hahn not to offer the QO, as that would have put more pressure to spend money on draft picks with the extra 1st-rounder....
