Ricky for sure. No interest in TLR. In fact I think it would be a detriment for him to go into a clubhouse and tell a guy like Tim Anderson he can't kneel for the national anthem.

White Sox fan taunts Astros during ALCS
southsider2k5 replied to CaliSoxFanViaSWside's topic in Pale Hose Talk
This is pretty genius of a heckling. It is also silly to think that players didn't get cheated out of money here. There are a couple of careers that may have been destroyed along the way of guys who got blown up as pitchers by this scam. -
Read up on Tony LaRussas history on these topics and explain to me how incident after incident doesn't add up to anything in your eyes. It isn't once. It isn't twice. It's a history. For some that history doesn't seem like a bad thing, and actually buy into his way of thinking, and how easily it has been mobilized to set a faction of the USA against the black population of this country. It's the same playbook that has been utilized for centuries now, but people keep lapping it up. Code words, stereotypes, fear of large groups of black people, etc. Gets you pointing the finger at them instead of hearing their anger and fears. Yeah, when it comes to an issue like this, I am not going to pretend to respect people who utilize racism to further themselves politically, and those who lap it up at their boots. TLR has a history here. And it extensively put him on the other side of the black athletes. It isn't even just the anthem either. If don't want to see it, you never will. Let's face it, when MLK wrote his letter about the white moderate, the letter was meant for the 60s, but it is timeless.

Its sad that you think it isn't, especially with what LaRussa has said and done during his major league history.

Go back to opening day.

Nah, we should totally let racists beliefs be. No one gets hurt by it.

Rick Hahn is Sporting News Executive of the Year
southsider2k5 replied to maloney.adam's topic in Pale Hose Talk
Imagine not recognizing the growth the White Sox have had over the last year instead of trying to substitute bitterness from something that isn't applicable to what is being talked about here. It is Executive of the year. -
So one minor league pitcher with pre existing control problems fails, so he shouldn't get the job. Makes sense. We all know how fail safe 2nd round picks are.
-
are we talking about Hinch or TLR?
-
Hahn was pretty much as clear as he gets on this. It will be an internal promotion.
-
And Hahn flat out named Zaleski as a candidate during his presser.
-
It's Zaleski or Hasler.

Rick Hahn is Sporting News Executive of the Year
southsider2k5 replied to maloney.adam's topic in Pale Hose Talk
It's so hard. On one hand you have a survey of baseball executives and Hahns peers who do this job for a living, understanding his job in intimate detail. On the other hand this guy on the internet thinks we should hold 2013 against Hahn. -
Disagree to agree.

Aw. No more Dr Seuss meets a crack binge?

The numbers have done nothing but accelerate since school started, but that isn't the problem. Sure. Lol, right. People want to believe so bad they just buy anything. Literally every time we loosen restrictions and open up, numbers go back up.

To spare the rest of us, He's mocking you.

KC was a .500 team against the rest of baseball. Detroit nearly was. The record vs .500 teams thing is deceptive this season, as one team was single handedly responsible for that, making it look like they sucked against everyone.

So your argument is that Forman is better because he destroyed the really good team he inherented? Yeah, I think you need to quit digging the hole you are already in. The comp was bad, but it got worse after you "explained " it. That is impressive. The gigantic hole in this is the last few years were full of losses on purpose. They rebuild to acquire tons of young talent. They did EXACTLY what they set out to do.
