It just feels like the same old thing with new marketing.

lol, wat? This team lost 121 games last year and will probably come into the spring with less talent than the did last year. There will be no "compete right now" for the Chicago White Sox.

Or, the Sox sign on to mediocrity (and worse) for long periods of time. I, for one, won't equate the Sox continuing to employ someone as them being good at their job. Call it the LaRussa Rule.

I don't get either extreme for Katz. Crochet had a year, but the staff as a whole was pretty much expected or worse and balanced that out.

I didn't know he knew how to do that. A+.

And we waste 5 years trying to get the other 9 hitters around him.

MLB will want to expand again.

A 1:1 deal achieves nothing.

If Texas gets another team they will complete the triangle. Plus when it comes to metro areas Chicago is much bigger.

Honestly if Jerry wanted to move the Sox would love it, because someone would absolutely pay the expansion franchise fee to be Chicago's 2nd team.

Today, not 20 years ago.

Like who?

Sure, but at Robert's peak, Chris Getz thought he could add utility guys to the roster and fix things.

I refuse to take you seriously and waste my time acting like you are. Either you are a complete idiot about sports (to which we both know why you aren't) or you are intentionally playing stupid.

It's not that complex. He is thought to own somewhere around 20% of the team. His tax hit will be a small fraction of whatever the final sale price is as he only owns a small fraction of the team.

He does not own 100% of the team, so his hit would be normal where near that amount.

This is where I realized greg was trolling us. Again.

At a minimum you have to have two sets of PLAYS (plural) in place. If there is a sack, then this. If the play works, then this. NO one had a fucking clue what to do after the sack. It took them 20 seconds to get a play in. My high school can do crunch time better than this. And when you see your team is a disaster, call a time out AND THEN set the next two plays, complete with the important sets of IF and THENs.

They did it!?!@

Wait til next year!

We literally have three game I can remember that we had a 95%, or higher, chance of winning, which the Bears lost. Those games alone make this a 7 win team. Pick a game like last week or this week , and that makes 8 without any real crazy "if only" type scenarios.

The Bears are the White Sox of the NFL. No football IQ, at all.

Sure. It's not like it was a fluke and he got figured out, what with his major league success and all. Obviously it worked.
