QUOTE (fathom @ Mar 17, 2016 -> 11:21 AM) Looks like LaRoche and company still going at it: E3 Meat Company @E3Meat 1h1 hour ago Baseball is a game started by a father & son playing catch! @e3laroche #familyfirst He really needs to make a decision and then stop trying to win this argument in the media. I wonder how many of his employees bring their kids to work every single day?

QUOTE (ptatc @ Mar 17, 2016 -> 10:22 AM) So what you're saying is they need a policy for every conceivable situation. This is the problem when people abuse privileges. It becomes over regulated then people complain about the regulations. Do they need policies now to stop players from going on twitter to cause issues? Or can the team just go to them and say "please don't do that to your team mates." "I can do it it because there isn't a policy." There are common decent things to do for your co-workers or team mates. He abused it, players complained. Mulligan was on the score earlier and said he knows that some of the players that are the most supportive of laRoche on social media were the players that complained the most to the front office about the kid being there. It figures.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Mar 17, 2016 -> 10:02 AM) It doesn't explain why Oney wasn't limited when he was around. It literally does not matter for what is going on today.

Adam LaRoche retires
QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Mar 17, 2016 -> 09:55 AM) They didn't. They agreed to let the kid in the clubhouse. Please provide one story where he is anywhere near Oney Guillen in terms of distraction. Just one is all I need and I will apologize. Immaterial. All the team needs to decide is that this specific situation isn't working for whatever reason. That's it. The rest of it is worthless.

South Bend TV station announced to air Sox 55 games
QUOTE (knightni @ Mar 17, 2016 -> 05:16 AM) 25 and 69 are nearly impossible to pick up over the air even near South Bend. It is always a good day to pick up 69.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Mar 17, 2016 -> 09:50 AM) Yeah, compare Drake LaRoche to Oney Guillen. And Oney didn't get kicked out. Why? Thankfully people never learn from anything, or change anything.

Adam LaRoche retires
QUOTE (Jose Paniagua @ Mar 17, 2016 -> 09:30 AM) It does bear pointing out we acted here with the swiftness and decisiveness that mightve better been used when we faced a real threat of a situation, like with s***head Oney But i do support what the Sox are doing here. Yeah, I have no idea why Kenny would get the idea that having kids in the lockerroom could be a bad idea...

QUOTE (fathom @ Mar 17, 2016 -> 09:24 AM) Rumor is that they are going to win to spite Kenny Williams, as they have a poster of him and will rip off part of his clothing after each win. Remember, Chemistry doesn't mean anything right?

2016 Republican Thread
QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Mar 17, 2016 -> 07:58 AM) Not going to go full-parse, but on the bolded... you really think this corporate magnate who's known for gaming the system is going to somehow do damage to the influence corporate America has on politics? Because it seems clear to me he'd do the opposite. This is literally the biggest draw dropper about the Trump bandwagon. How in the world would people really believe him when he talks about changing the things that literally made him rich.

Adam LaRoche retires
QUOTE (fathom @ Mar 17, 2016 -> 08:58 AM) I agree with that, but that's why the most simple explanation is one of the newer player(s) complained to KW about it. Bingo. Occams Razor.

Adam LaRoche retires
QUOTE (ptatc @ Mar 17, 2016 -> 08:55 AM) No. There is not another kid ariund that much during the season. Most other kids are in school. I have never seen nor heard of another kid being around this much. This from the one guy on Soxtalk who has actually been around pro sports team on a daily basis

Adam LaRoche retires
QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Mar 17, 2016 -> 08:44 AM) That seems... weird. A dissension that extreme is the last thing this team needs. All the positive "improved clubhouse atmosphere" stories from the days prior were refreshing. Yet two days ago those were categorized as fluff pieces by most of Soxtalk.

QUOTE (flavum @ Mar 17, 2016 -> 08:29 AM) Which is why Drake shouldn't have had his own locker and unlimited access---last year. Why is it so unreasonable to think they tried it, weren't sure about it, and then got more complaints about it this year, so they decided to fix it. This stuff happens in the real world every day.

Adam LaRoche retires
QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Mar 17, 2016 -> 07:50 AM) It's just another case of the White Sox doing something half assed. KW says kids are welcome, Drake is not a distraction, just bring him less than half the time, and everyone else, bring your kids they are welcome, just maybe not today. Either make a clear rule for kids in the clubhouse, or ban them. BTW with bat boys and clubbies, there are young guys around these players all the time. It isn't like Drake was sitting in team meetings. Pick a lane KW. Common sense need not a apply. Apparently baseball players are too stupid to figure out what less than every day is and they need a full calendar to know.

Adam LaRoche retires
QUOTE (greg775 @ Mar 16, 2016 -> 06:24 PM) I'm gonna comment first, then read all your comments so to not let them influence me. Yes I despised LaRoche perhaps more than any other player in Sox history. But now, after reading Kenny Williams wouldn't let him bring his son to the clubhouse every day, I have changed my tune. I would gladly see LaRoche hit .150 with 80 percent strikeouts if it meant bringing him back to stick it up Kenny's backside so to speak. What a chicken s*** thing to do to LaRoche. Players bring their kids all the time to clubhouses. Very sad. Wonder if this will hurt the Sox in the future trying to sign guys. Again, I thought LaRoche was a pathetic hitter and I even despised his beard, but after reading this? Let him come back and bleep you, Kenny. FAMILY OVER EVERYTHING Not half as chicken s*** as judging people anonymously on the internet.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ Mar 16, 2016 -> 06:05 PM) The "heated clubhouse meeting" between KW and the team is what's throwing me off from thinking both are true Go to a meeting of your local City Council. It only takes two pissed off people to make things a "heated meeting".
