The Worst Owner in Sports? The case for Jerry Reinsdorf
#1 they were in the best division in baseball in the AL East. #2, they were still 33 games better than the White Sox in 2024. #3, their 2024 was still 14 games better than the White Sox in 2025.

In fact I would argue he looks down on his fans more than he respects their feelings.

Even more than his hires is sabotaging his own guys even when they are 100% right. What do the Sox look like today if AJ Hinch, Manny Machado, and Bryce Harper had been brought in? These were all stopped by one person, and it wasn't the GM.

Sure. Snapped. Asking for objective reporting is "snapped." Well I guess that makes sense in the White Sox world where you get punished for stepping out of line.

You have a weird way of making excuses for everyone by blaming the last guys to get fired which effectively does the same thing.

In a crunch it is either find capital, or go under. I don't think he got pushed.

No conspiracy needed. Jerry is not a cash rich owner, and he was having an active capital crunch. The signs are all there and public.

Sox fire Katz and Thames
Honestly, I would settle for some objective coverage, but that is a bridge too far, obviously. He didn't go from being the greatest thing to ever happen to Sox pitching, to the reason for all of our problems overnight... Just like everyone else did.

It is amazing how much virtual ink was spent on Katz successes, but yet no one is willing to publicly say anything about his firing. And yet, we are supposed to suck up this White Sox sponsored opinion pieces as objective fact.

No one has said anything about why guys were fired. I haven't even seen where anyone even asked.

TBH Jerry is the biggest reason of all to bet against Getz and this franchise as a whole.

Then why did you challenge me on the same point between a prime Tito and over the hill TLR?
-

The comparison wouldn't be same because of their history's. That's literally the point

Sox fire Katz and Thames
One guy was out for a year and still on top. The other was out for over a decade and was not. It's fully about now, now the 1980s.

I mean you are the one saying "problem". I'd call it unprofessional, personally.

Yes, they both won World Series and are in the HOF!

One was at the top of his game in the 2020's. The other was at the bottom of his bottle. Totally the same. Let's bring back Connie Mack!

It is, but in a national game, Bears fans had to listen to it, so it became their problem.

He doesn't need to like him, but there was an audible difference in treatment betweenthe QBs. You can get away with that as a local guy, but not a national one.
