And the Sox using one pricing model all year. They aren't changing it upwards on any basis.

I am hoping the Bears end up with my guy Braden Fiske. Awesome to see this kid destroy the combine. He's from my hometown high school and I know him.

(not) nice

And people say we have no chance...

Then it is up to Getz to impress upon him that it's either do as he is told, or get fired.

Don't waste time or money on the White Sox. Do something cool like hike in Red Rock Canyon!

Some people just don't see themselves as trashy as they appear IRL.

Bulls, Cubs, and Bears fans are a different breed than Sox and Blackhawks fans. The former show up no matter what. The latter, not so much. Almost every fan base shows up when a team wins. Obvious there are a couple of exceptions, but in about 95% of cases that is true. We can argue if that makes for "smart" fans vs "loyal" fans all we want, but the fact that it is true remains, and it is a factor in the stadium that JR is looking for today. His primary focus seems to be putting this stadium into a project which will serve as a bridge to the casual fan who doesn't give a s%*# what the teams record is to fill in the years where the park is half empty.

Oh this would be an awesome twist.

I can't think of many things that are a bigger waste of time right now than a Sox fan listening to sports talk radio on the Score.

I will say this much. If Pedro really is as much of a dumbass as we all think, it is going to become a lot more obvious how bad he is when he is losing 3-2 games because of his mistakes versus losing 9-2 because his entire pitching staff and defense was trash and there were no good answers for either.

Sell the players on the other teams.

The difference being a decent ballpark attracts people in many places even when the team isn't good, which is really important with a fan base that doesn't show up when things aren't ideal.

Honestly the best place in the US to start another team would be the NY/NJ market. Even if you divided it up by 3 or even 4 teams it would still be bigger than pretty much any other team market.

Look, if you haven't figured out this is a rebuild, you deserve to pay to watch this team. I can't think of a better punishment.

Well done.

Great managers aren't going to anything with an awful team. Look at Bill Belichek's record minus Tom Brady.

Then he would literally never talk, and that would upset people. Or he could tell the truth, and that would upset people. This whole franchise is total BS right now. Do you need it said to you every day?

I don't expect him to be truthful. I guess that is the difference between us.

I mean if people want to waste their time being offended by anything this group does this season... sure have at it. But good lord, we all know what is out there in 2024. This team and everything about it are going to be awful. If you feel the need to be offended by that, I don't get it, but sure.

If they aren't giving him a playbook... in the words of Hawk HE GAWN!

And they guys they send out first are the ones coming back last.

ALL of these guys are being overinflated. I think a lot of guys have caught a bad case of Tatis syndrome.

You are a fan of the wrong form of entertainment then.

And one of them has way higher bust potential?
