I mean it's not an absolute. But basically the ownership deal is a tax scam in all but name. Jerry has sold the team, and taken money up front for it, but doesn't want to ACTUALLY sell it because then the capital gains taxes kick in. They are pretending Jerry still owns and operates so as to keep the facade up. If Ishbia starts speaking for the franchise, that falls apart and the IRS will come calling. The historic ownership structure was that Jerry held all of the power. That changes, red flags go up.

Because they already announced otherwise.

If you combine home and road attendance, Sox are last in MLB at like 18k per game.

Maybe more of a Greek Tragedy?

The Sox can't pick better than 10th this season, even if they are the worst team in baseball. This is not an on-purpose tank year.

I am sure he has a say behind the scenes. I can't imagine putting up $2 billion, and not having a say. He just can't be in front of the process until either Jerry dies, or the option to buy is able to be exercised.

The White Sox are Soxing up this season... That's right, it is now a verb.

I don't like seeing problems with velocity more than anything else.

It overlaps the stages of grief way too well.

If the implication is that the "sale" has already taken place in all but name, that's fraud. It would look pretty obvious if all of the sudden if Jerry were ceding control of the franchise without an actual sale having taken place (and remember, there is no actual OBLIGATION for the sale to take place in this agreement, simply options for it to happen in the future) it means the sale has already effectively happened, meaning that Jerry owes capital gains takes NOW, and then he will owe taxes again upon his death with the transition of his estate.

He has to say that to keep the IRS at bay for Jerry. If he is the control person early, it moves the transaction and taxes happen pre death and again at death.

Very excited for the new Handmaid's tale spinoff as well as the Malcom revival. Also Scrubs was as great as it always was.

Losing is a disease, and the Sox are anti-vaxxers.

Hola Amigos!

And the ALCentral is even easier to beat.

I mean when the vast majority of the hitters are awful, you can't bench them all.

If this isn't a euphemism for the White Sox franchise, I don't know what is.

If Reese worked any deeper, we would have needed the George Carlin masterbation skit.

Reese cranking one out for his own benefit

Wait, I think I have another one in me.... LET REESE FINISH ON TOP!

Damn it Beavis, go home.

So is he calling his shots? Or is he actually aiming it? How's his control? OK, I'm done (that's what Reese said)

IT'S NATURAL I SWEAR!

Hey Ozzie, don't drive home tonight, get an Uber.

REESE!
