The Beast

Let’s hope the Ishbias don’t handle the Sox the way they did the Suns. That Durant trade left that team barren of talent and draft capital for some time. Is it fair to write to Boyer to b**** about the Comcast deal, where I had them on cable with the package I have, lost the channel and then they upped the package I need to watch the games on my cable package? And maybe see what progress could be made about getting the games on YouTube TV instead of watching them on the TV App or switching to another cable and internet provider which would be a pain?

Historically he has not wanted to pile up the debt but perhaps Getz sold him on the rebuild with a tight budget and tear down, as well as a lack of spending with the looming strike and labor negotiations?

They had Chicago police officers lining the area but I agree that he should have had more security. He sat by himself for a little while until Harold Baines finally came over and sat next to him. I thought, “old money must be lonely sitting alone.” He did get handshakes and greetings from some of the 2005 team though.

Well when you run scrubs out there…

I was 10 feet away from JR at Buehrle’s Statue Unveling Ceremony. It took a lot to not say anything to him (didn’t think getting kicked out was worth it). Oh well, someone got this one in. I missed when Plesac was there. How did he sound and was he better than Beckham?

At least he had genuine takes and interest of this team instead of being a corporate dick sucker.

Also I’ve been listening to the radio the majority of the game. It is such a better way of following this team than watching the wannabe play by play guy on CHSN who had no business replacing Benetti. Also, Detroit sucks.

Put the hits together and get back into this thing. Otherwise win on Sunday and take the series.

Fucking Jordan Leasure. He was interesting when he got here but he sucks.

Too many LOB and nothing to show for it. A pitchers duel.

Remember the two O’s fans that come to Soxtalk to do prospect clutching and being cheap over the Cease deal?

I had no idea who he was in the lineup last night and he did jack crap.

Does anyone know why the umpires and Teel went out to Cannon last night for a few minutes early in the game?

I was right up there at the pregame ceremonies. Buehrle, his family, his parents, AJP, Guillen, Dye, Reinsdorf, Widger, Crede, Garcia, Contreras, Uribe, and Baines were there. Someone said Iguchi’s name and that Ozuna was there, but I had trouble identifying some players on the team. El Duque could have been in the crowd and I wouldn’t have noticed him without his jersey on.

Similar offers are available for that game too.

That’s okay, I just must have missed the last CBA. I agree that the NBA transaction rules are weird.

Check the infield corners (sections 154 and 110). Those tickets are typically cheaper and my guess is you can move around to get a better vantage point. StubHub and whitesox.com would be my best guess to find a deal. Unfortunately I can’t find the coupons needed to get deep discounts on tickets on whitesox.com anymore. I did see a Bleachers and Brews deal for the 7/11 game in case you wouldn’t mind sitting in the outfield sections.

I am a bit behind on the times, but I have questions about NBA free agency. What are Bird Rights, the amnesty provision, max deals, mid level exceptions and is the veteran’s minimum? What other types of contracts should I be aware of? Why do teams do sign and trades instead of just outright sign free agents? Also, why are first round picks dealt like crazy and what determines if a pick can be top 10 protected or not?

How did he look towards the end of his outing? 104 pitches through five seems like a lot.

Is that still an option now?

Thanks I appreciate that! I’ll check it out!

How the hell did they get Shane Smith in the rule 5 draft? Thanks Brewers!

How did people stream the games without paying for them in the past?

Jon Garland and Mark Buehrle had stints in starting out of the pen.

I think the anger should be used towards Brooks Boyer about the TV deal and the fact that some of us would need to spend an extra $120 per year to see the White Sox on Comcast after some already spent money on the antenna.
