The Worst Owner in Sports? The case for Jerry Reinsdorf

The Bulls even tried to trade the puck for... Wait for it... A center. -
The Worst Owner in Sports? The case for Jerry Reinsdorf

It was a completely different game in the 1980s. As someone who lived through it, basketball revolved around the big center. Michael changed the game 180 degrees, and no one really saw it coming. -
Martin Perez apparently declined his option. Sure buddy. Ok.
-
If they got him back to play him again, it is one thing. If this is because they want to try to trade him for the same package of garbage they wouldn't take 3 months ago, this is stupid.

People over-estimating the Twins then. They are going to be awful, on top of maybe still having more selling to do. Their farms system is deeper and better at the top, but that will take a couple of years to get to.

SoxMachine Podcast on Free Agent Pitchers
southsider2k5 replied to WestEddy's topic in Pale Hose Talk
If the Sox were smart, they would look at taking on a chunk of that money in exchange for getting a decent prospect. But they won't. -
To follow up on this, the fact that ANY Bears player went closer than 10 yards to the football on the on-side attempt should be a fireable offense. If the ball doesn't go 10 yards, the play is dead. You cannot be in a position to be touched by the football at fewer than 10 yards out, under any circumstances, whatsoever. It cannot happen. Either players need to be released, or the Coach should be fired. Maybe both.

It's still better than being left out.

Most prospects are overrated and overhyped in the long run.
-
Also gotta give it to Caleb who did what he needed to do down the stretch to recover this game for the Bears. Also nice to see a Loveland sighting.

Literally no defense played in this game. None.
-
The Bears special teams needs to walk home.

Is “The 78” Dead? Or even more alive? Fire announce plans for SSS
southsider2k5 replied to soxfan18's topic in Pale Hose Talk
How's it working out? The White Sox just set a major league record for the worst season in the 125 year history of major league baseball, and the 2nd worst ever for 2 and 3 seasons combined. Give me trying and failing over not caring at all. -
Yeah, I am not interested in putting a Hall of Fame ceiling on anyone in this system today.

Two billion per team. That’s 4 billion dollars split 30 ways, or about 133 million per owner. -

Which is why when the Sox won the World Series, Konerko gave the ball to future Hall of Famer Frank Thomas, and not to Jerry... -
House of Guinness was a great watch. Also now really enjoying The Diplomat.

Their business is headquartered in Chicago, and the purchasing brother is building a nine figure house in the burbs. Just because we haven't heard of talk, doesn't mean their hasn't been something happening behind the scenes. That is typically how this is done. -

The team made an honest effort at Wheeler and set the market for him. That's fine. -

Eh, it wasn't quite the same as ACTUAL free agent top of the market spending, but I will say it did set a record for that time period. -
