  1. Looks like Hudl might have a free live stream of the BR @ Jacobs game: https://fan.hudl.com/usa/il/algonquin/organization/18092/jacobs-high-school/watch?b=QnJvYWRjYXN0MzAwNTY1NQ%3D%3D If you have a smart TV, you can search for and install the “Hudl Fan” app and then search for either Brother Rice or Jacobs High School to find the live stream of the game for Saturday. This is a screenshot of the “Hudl Fan” app from my phone:
  2. He managed to sell high on Q, Sale, and Eaton. I don’t think there was ever really a chance to sell high on Yoan and Eloy but there was with Robert after the 2023 season.
  3. I am not too familiar with Jacobs but their secondary got roasted numerous times by AT. They don’t look all that impressive last week.
  4. I think they’ll be fine. Better to play the weaker team than Addison Trail. I’m not positive but it looks like the only feed for the game may be through the IHSA site. It looks like you can sign up for a month for $14 bucks and then cancel before the next month’s charge. https://www.maxpreps.com/m/news/tqDyETsJe0eVW8iPwwbL-w/football-game-preview-brother-rice-crusaders-vs-jacobs-golden-eagles--how-to-watch.htm
  5. The Sox gave Robert this contract with these additional team options when they thought he would be an annual All-Star player. Now they are stuck chasing trade value by overpaying him and hoping he has a healthy (unlikely) and successful (hit or miss) first half, unless they decide to sell him off low in ST before he gets injured.
  6. 1.5 hours isn’t awful. Too bad it isn’t at least hybrid — half in the office and half remote. Before going fully remote during Covid, my company with a home office in the Chicago suburbs allowed a 2 or 3 day work from home each week and 2 or 3 days in the office which really helped some of the employees who lived an hour plus away, typically in Wisconsin.
  7. Don’t get too excited. They could look to trade him in Spring Training.
  8. Rinse and repeat this same quote in some similar form or fashion every offseason until Ishbia owns the team.
  9. Is there any option of splitting time between remote work/office and commuting to the WI office “sometimes”? I worked for a company that had offices in Brookfield, WI, Warrenville, IL, and Springfield, IL. I lived closest to Warrenville so I would work out of that office, but my team was primarily in Brookfield and Springfield. I would sometimes drive out to those offices a few times a year. Even those 2.5 to 3.5 hours drives back and forth would drive me nuts, so I can’t imagine doing it weekly. I have since moved to a company that switched to full-time remote work and I can’t imagine ever going into an office again.
  10. Nothing wrong with hiring from the best organizations — the Marlins and Royals Bet they came cheap. 🤣
  11. With typical Sox luck, he will either get injured in ST and/or right before the trade deadline, resulting in him sitting on the Sox roster all year until he becomes a free agent.
  12. Or posters here. It made no sense. Once Getz made the decision not to trade Robert, he must have also discussed picking up Robert’s option and it was approved by Jerry. Otherwise, you would simply trade Robert for whatever you could get, even if the return sucked. Plus, the payroll is still so low, even after Robert’s $20 million option.
  13. Anyone would be an improvement on #26. Nashon Wright just gets burned.
  14. Ah, thanks. I thought I was going insane.
  15. Is this a joke? The dude is 44 years old and hasn’t played since 2013.
  16. I understand not talking about a trade at all so it doesn’t fall through and because it isn’t official yet, but why even say that you have made a trade at all? Jerry Jones is an oddball.
  17. To be fair to our GM that has blown the majority of his trades, my guess is that Littell had more perceived value as a starter to teams than Houser. But your point remains, acquiring Meadiocre definitely didn’t work out. He thought he could repeat his “success” with another aged out prospect like Vargas.
  18. 101-223. Great job indeed. Nonsense? No.
  19. Is this a thing, haha? I missed him say this. Maybe he thinks the positions are from the perspective of the outfielders. 🤣
  20. The Sox are in a perpetual rebuild these days because Jerry refuses to spend money and likely won’t at all until he sells the team in 2029. When the best player in the history of baseball becomes available, you should have some interest. Jerry doesn’t need you making excuses for him.
  21. I said Reinsdorf didn’t even fake interest in the best player in the history of baseball. What I said was true, and it was pathetic.
  22. You were commenting on how the Dodgers own the Japanese market. It’s not hard when some owners bow out before the guy is even officially a free agent.
  23. Imagine this wretched team making the playoffs.
