Managerial “Search”
The problem is I am not even sure there are more than 4 or 5 people on this roster who will have even a decent major league career. We are filled with filler.

Twins up for sale...
No joke, the Sox should connect with the TribCo because that is essentially how they sold the Cubs to minimize taxes.

Sox looking at building in South Loop
The entire City of Chicago's skyscrapers all have foundations LONG below street level, even places like The Sears Tower, which is half a block from the same river. If you don't remember, go back and look up the great Chicago Flood in the late 90s. It's the same thing they did in NYC too with all of their skyscrapers including both versions of the WTC. They dig out a massive hole, reinforce it with concrete and rebar, and then start building up. A place like Sears or WTC is probably 50 to 60 feet in a hole before they start building. This ballpark would be amateur hour compared to places like that.

Speaking of the good ol days, you put me in the camp of agreeing with Balta. That should pretty much tell you that you are out in left field on this one. For some reason you have decided to be the old man lecturing everyone how things should be, and how they used to be. We get it you are different. That quit being interesting like 10 lectures ago. We are going to be beneath you over here. If you feel the need to lecture, let the feeling pass.

The rest of us will be fine. The rest of us will be fine. If all you are going to do is complain about having to look down on the majority of us who don't feel the need to pretend all is well, don't. You aren’t going to change any minds by telling us all how stupid we are. With all due respect, gtfoh with that BS.

I'll Always be a Jose Abreu Fan. He's Trying to Come Back
Sign him. If we are going to waste time on "leadership", it might as well be Abreu.

I am sure you would. Maybe you'd learn something.

Oh even better, self-righteous preachings. I am not quite sure why you are down here in these depths or even here associating with all of us normal people.

And if they really did expect to be this bad, everyone did what was expected of them, so why are they getting fired?

If you make the stadium where to enter at the top of the 100 level like the rest of baseball it would be fine.

This too. Either they lied to us in the offseason for our money, or Getz just lied to us during the season. Either way, it doesn't make me excited to give them any of my money.

Yes. You keep telling us how we should all think. Thanks for that.

Taylor has GOT to figure out how to stay healthy for a decent period of time before we can really start the hype train on him.

Dear Sox fans
TWTW + Fun = playoffs.

Yeah, this right here. Unless you are coming up with nine figures to give to me over the next 5 to 6 years (say $140ish for the next 5 years, somewhere around $175 for 6.) to buyout enough time for the Sox to be decent again with Crochet on the roster, you are pissing away a depreciating asset.

Dear Sox fans
I am also against losing. I want us to win more than 41 games.

Jerry approves of this message.

I agree with what you are saying, but the Sox roster needs to figure out a way to add about 22-23 major league calibur players if they ever want a shot at respectability. 1 for 1 doesn't help the numbersdeficit.
