I am sure the weighting of the systems changes because of where guys rank too. If you just rawdog adding up how many people are in top 100, that equates 100 with 1 as equal. With a team like the Tigers skewing towards the front with less players, but 2 top 10s, and 4 top 40s, that could outweigh the Sox five who starts at 35 and are mostly in the backhalf.

And to be clear, while it is civil now, it won't stay that way. Someone will come in and turn up the temp, and we already know, someone is waiting to cry about what is said.

Is “The 78” Dead? Or even more alive? Fire announce plans for SSS

The Sox brought in an emergency buyer to cover operations debt. Period. End of story. -

The Sox have not made money this decade. -

We are already there. This location does not hold the fanbases interest if this franchise is not consistently winning. Attendance hasn't been this low since the 1900s. This is also a franchise that has almost moved multiple times. I know this is supposed to scare everyone, but we haven't been away from 35/Shields since 1909, yet this franchise is already in imment danger. The fan base is gone. It's at modern lows. This stadium has been a complete failure. -
Getz 2025 Grade: your vote matters.

Thorpe actually probably hurt the worst, as he was a guy who had decent potential depending on how much you believe that change can play in the majors. and now you not only lost that development time, but also a year to a year and a half of control for nothing. -

So the team IS setting the off season regiment, and working with the players on them. Ope. -

And that will be 4 billion, as it will be 2 teams. None of these guys are turning down a check for ~133 million dollars. That's why expansion. -

But why? Like, what are the Sox "holding out" for? It's a lease for an already existing stadium, which has a historic set of precedents to base it on. The only reason it would make sense is if the Sox are angling for a short term lease with an eye on still getting a stadium done somewhere else, and the ISFA doesn't want that, especially already losing the Bears. -
Garrett Crochet named Opening Day starter
southsider2k5 replied to Sleepy Harold's topic in Pale Hose Talk
As an admin, in general I don't have a problem with people throwing sand in the sandbox. It is par for the course in a place like this honestly. It irritates me more when people throw sand, and then complain incessantly when people throw sand back. If you are going to call people trolls, don't then go troll other people. -

Why would they be threatening to leave while not trying to build a new stadium? That seems like the easiest thing ever? -

Someone would pay 2 billion dollars to be Chicago's 2nd team. -

This organization has talked about moving literally since the 1960s. They were all but moved in the 80s too. Between the Milwaukee games, the story of Charlie Finley and the franchise swaps, and the St Pete Sox, this is nothing new. -

Right. It wasn't just you bumping a thread from a year and a half ago to laugh at people. The call is definitely coming from inside the house. -

Yet, you keep responding, telling people what they are allowed to say and think. You act like you aren't just as guilty, but are right here doggy paddling in the deep end of the cesspool. -

It's smaller, but it would be all theirs. Nashville does support their teams too. Plus if they can squeeze money out for a stadium that they can't get in Chicago that changes things too.
