Steve Bartman's my idol

If you had paid attention, I said IN MY OPINION, JR and the investors are making a sizable profit, and I DON'T BELIEVE them when they say they invest their profits back into the team!

You have reading comprehension deficiencies, Rock. I'm done with you too, because you can't understand simple Business 101, (or English 101 as well!).

I guess the terrorists can rationalize their behavior any way they choose. That doesn't make it right though.

Rock...you're trying to have it both ways. First you say that the investors own the Sox (a business) to make money. Then you say that they don't make money, that there is a zero sum gain year after year. Which is it? BTW...Southside Irish is absolutely right!

I fight fire with fire!

You are intelligent enough not to believe everything you hear, aren't you?

Your WWSBMID comment was very condescending, Rock!

And my point was, I don't think the Sox would be operating at a loss if they took on Abreu's salary.

You refrain from personal attacks, and I will do the same!

Then by your "logic", since the odds of us repeating are slim, we should be dumping all of our big money players, and go for as much profit as possible?!

Your blind faith in Rock is touching, Kyle.

Never said you were gay, I said you are a girl!

1. Abreu improves the team. 2. An improved team has a better chance to repeat as champions. 3. A championship teams draw more fans. 1+2+3= MORE MONEY!

And this is not an ignorant statement? Your bias is definitely showing.

I cannot believe the ignorance of some of you. Who here wouldn't spend $50 to make $100?

Rock...you and your girlfriend Kyle make a sweet couple. I wish you the best. :banghead

The first (unwritten) Rule of Business..."It takes money to make money.".

One of the posters said that the Sox historically reinvest the previous seasons' profits every year. I do not believe that. That's what I meant to say. Would you agree that Sox ownership is in the business to make money?

The first intelligent thing you've said in awhile!

Some of you talk like the Whitesox are a "Not-for-Profit" corporation. That is just plain stupid.

WRONG AGAIN!

You guys are not giving MR. Reinsdorf and the other investors enough credit. These are astute, brilliant businessmen; they are not going to run a business entity with the sole purpose of breaking even. That's absolutely ludicrous.

I stand by what I said about my intelligence. I am an attorney. (My I.Q. is in the high 130s.) I have brokered multi-million dollar deals. Most of all, I am intelligent enough to know that there is NO way Jerry and his co-investors have only split even over the years. That is preposterous.

You can always do more!
