Falstaff

Trevor needs to read Dale Carnegie's book, "How to win friends and influence people." I think it could pay off more than Reinsdorf's public relations speaking course at Trump University.

I would say no MLB will give Bauer a shot at this time. Could present public sentiment change if more details come out, absolutely but Bauer is still a Richard, that isn't ever going to change.

2 things that are going to happen: - The Sox will have a new stadium at the 78. - The Bears will have a new dome stadium. Now how it happens I can't tell you, but both will get done.

To bad for Gio, he is a good dude.

I would gladly pick him up and drive to the airport, AMF.

Is You Is Or Is You Ain't a Sox fan

First 20,000 get a Star Wars Storm Trooper action figure.

Balmer is a Clipper fan's dream for ownership. The 2 guys I can think of that have more money than they know what to do with are the Mets & Panthers owners. I am not sure how that will all play out in New York and Charlotte, especially Charlotte. I wonder if the next White Sox owner is already negotiating with Jerry behind the scenes. I hope it's George Lucas's wife Mellody Hudson. She is a Southside Sox fan with access to billions of dollars.

I was thinking of some of the old time Sox announcers, Bob Elson, The Commander, Harry Carry, and of course Hawk Harrelson. Then I thought about a Chicago Bear announcer most probably never heard of, Irv Kupcient, he was Jack Brickhouse's sidekick. If you get a chance to look up his history, it is very interesting. My dad and brothers would mimic Irv and I always would crack up. As a kid I never knew how big a deal Kupcient was, but his column was huge in the entertainment industry. Irv played college football and then when on to referee in the NFL. He went on to work for the Sun Times and wrote a celebrity and political gossip column. Long before internet keyboard warriors and TikTok /YouTube influencers Irv was the guy. Every movie star and music celebrity would have a sit down with Irv at a night club / restaurant/ or local studio when they came into Chicago for a premiere. He really was a big deal back in the day because people got all their information from newspapers. On a sad note, his daughter moved to Los Angeles to pursue an acting career in tv/movies and was murdered.

Schrif & Stoney will be great I like them already. I am looking forward to the regular season broadcasts.

The Soxtalk Tea Party is formed and takes to the streets for fiscal responsibility in the great state of Illinois.

Regular season: 40,615 X 81 = 3,253,365 + (81 standing room only @ 500 = 40,500) = 3,293,865 This is without factoring in the White Sox home field advantage in playoffs and World Series where additional seats are typically added.

Another reason to get excited for 2024 is John Schriffen. Friday was a bit rough but yesterday was better. Yes sir I am onboard with Stoney & Schriffen.

I am warming up to John Schriffen.

Lee and Elko look like they could play for the Bears.

Scoots if you are in a company 401k you might be able to move a percentage to a Roll Over IRA. I was able to move up to 20% out of my company 401K to a Roll Over IRA. You can transfer the funds to a Roll Over IRA at any institution like Vanguard or Fidelity. There are some very important rules on transferring the funds to avoid penalties. A timeline of 60 days, transfer the funds electronically without cashing a check if issued, a Roth Roll Over IRA would require you to pay taxes up front. The reason people do the Roll Over IRA is because sometimes their company 401K plan is limited in investment options.

Why am I excited this year: Kenny is finally gone, thank you very much. Jerry is starting to put together an exit strategy, which will prove to be for the White Sox fan what Charlemagne achieved for Western Civilization. Churros at the ballpark.

Lip a loss on paper is a loss but a blown save to me is a gut punch

The Sox in 1970 went from 56-106 to 79-83 in 1971. In 1972, If my all-time favorite White Sox, Bart Johnson, and second all-time favorite, Bill Melton, are healthy and played the whole season they win the division and the process of granting sainthood is started for Dick Allen. This year's team has me excited for who is going to be the guy that nobody had a clue would be a stud and building block. I think I will have another fav in Fletcher. Also, I am curious if Soroka bounces back to his 2019 form.

I am locked in, let's go!

When you go to a game at the new park you will be able to spot my condo's balcony, it will be the one with a 1959 American League Champion Flag. ( impulse buy at a Sox garage sale years ago )

Keep in mind the difference between a Trader and an Investor. When you see a guy like Kramer on CNBC he is speaking to traders or to use the term day trader. To me this is a very volatile way to make money, even the so-called experts struggle to come out ahead. Aggressive day trading is close to online gambling. it sounds good when you talk to your buddies about buying low and selling high. The truth of the matter is you have a better chance of losing money because you can't time the market. Retirement fund: If you are young and have a 401k at work that the company matches I would suggest to max out your contribution. You want to be in very aggressive growth. If you don't have a 401K available at work then you can go to a brick and mortar like Fidelity, Edward Jones, and Charles Schwab to name a few. The online choice to me would be Vanguard. Let this fund grow without taking any money out for any reason. You can educate yourself on the difference between 401k, IRA, rollover IRA, and Roth. Investing : Depending on your age, if you are married with kids, looking to buy a house, once you do have available funds to invest then you can look into stocks/bonds/real estate and invest accordingly. The retirement fund needs to be kept separate from all the things I just mentioned.

year : 2031 location : White Sox Park at the 78 seat : Club Level starting pitcher : Noah Schultz dominating the Yankees on 1 hit 14 strike outs you: total awe

Build it !! In the words of Arnold , "COME ON !! DO IT !!! DO IT NOW!!!!"

I am very interested in Dominic Fletcher and Soroka this spring.
