CHSN to be available on antenna in Chicago
Yes, you are correct. I am just referring to it by its marketed name because it allows you to receive high definition (HD) channels over the air (OTA), but it also allows you to get standard definition (SD) channels as well to your point. I am in the west suburbs, well within 35 miles of downtown and constantly adjusting an antenna is a little bit of an annoyance. But I guess free is free so that is the price you pay.

Brand Loyalty
Did your friends ever take you to an adult entertainment club for your 18th birthday? Some clubs are better than others. Some are chains with multiple locations while others may only be a single location. They also have branding for their names. They sell “entertainment” and some clubs have higher quality entertainment than others. The White Sox provide sports as a form of entertainment instead.

CHSN to be available on antenna in Chicago
The problem with HD antennas in some areas is that while you may get good reception with it positioned in one location for some channels, other channels will be choppy. Probably need to mount a rooftop antenna in some areas to get a good signal for all channels. I have yet to find the magical HD antenna for a single TV that works perfectly for all channels, and people don’t want to mess around adjusting an HD antenna like bunny ears in the old days.

Battle of the Broadcasters this weekend
Yes and yes. I believe @southsider2k5 has said this before — Stone is a simply a bitter old man at this point.

Buster Olney and Jesse Rogers’s turn ripping the Sox
He’s definitely a clown act, but what does Goldust have to do with this?

Bleacher Report: White Sox expose MLB's not so secret crisis of bad ownership
I have a feeling Getz won’t be referencing this Bleacher Report article like he did with the one about the Sox farm system being ranked third in the MLB. 🤣

Buster Olney and Jesse Rogers’s turn ripping the Sox
Robert absolutely blows right now and has been terrible for a long stretch. Eloy sucked when he was healthy and just got optioned to the minors by the Orioles. Moncada may have at least been mediocre to average (.730 to .750 OPS), but he is always injured and can never be counted on, much like Eloy and even Robert to a lesser extent. But even had these three guys all stayed healthy, it’s starting to look like your theory that they would have improved the White Sox record much isn’t really a slam dunk. Our “3 top offensive players” look like absolute busts right now.

Stone not sure he will be back in 25, season "wearing on him"
Stone Pony / The Legend — your dogs miss you at home. Retire and enjoy life with your pets… and take Schriffen with you.

Burger just hit #29. Maybe Sheets will turn into a lefty slugger that can hit 30+ homers next season?

Brand Loyalty
I think I agree with both of you (Texsox too). I think of brand loyalty mainly pertaining to a company that provides goods and/or services. But people also spend money on entertainment, which the Sox are failing to provide any positive form of. But it’s easy to simply ignore the Sox, not pay to attend any of their games, and wait until they are good again so you can enjoy a game watching actual major league level talent.

Buster Olney and Jesse Rogers’s turn ripping the Sox
I wonder if it is just that Sizemore didn’t want to manage this record breaking team or if he doesn’t want to manage at all and be a special advisor / developmental guy in a team’s front office?

9/24 Sox vs. Halos 6:40PM - A chance to witness history
Yes, all those people at the Sox game tonight that paid money to see Jerry’s team were trolls, not Sox fans. I was hoping this was your gimmick but it’s far worse. You’re actually for real…. 😳

Yes they were. Go watch Benintendi’s post-game interview. Oops…
-
9/24 Sox vs. Halos 6:40PM - A chance to witness history
LOL, Benintendi was just interviewed and said it was weird that the Sox fans were upset that they won. Hilarious to hear a player admit that. Chuck said the fans wanted to see history.

Levine: Possible frontrunner for manager - LAD 1B Coach Clayton McCullough
Sizemore could have a 5+ year tenure as the Sox manager by the time that happens.

Please just don’t let the Sox pick any more players from the Dodgers.

Good for Ramos, but I hope he doesn’t get past 2B.
