White Sox to hire Derek Shomon as hitting coach, Zach Bove as pitching coach per James Fegan
Typically a manager gets say, but it does depend a lot on how experienced and respected that manager is in a lot of cases.

Robert Thread: Sox talking to Reds, Mets
If he REALLY saw a 121 team on the horizon, he should have been selling like crazy. The problem is most of those guys had no value because of injuries or just generally being awful.

Totally understand. Like I said, i did a daily commute to Chicago from Michigan City for most of 15 years. It's where work and the dollars were. I hate to be a buzzkill, but also, wanted to be fair to you. Best of luck man!

Those ultra long commutes will eat at you over time. I get the opportunity, but you are going to miss a lot of time at home, and that gets rough. Being older now, I have passed up chances to work in both Chicago and NYC for a lot more money, just because I don't want to move and/or commute anymore. Quality of life is important.

The Bulls even tried to trade the puck for... Wait for it... A center.- The Worst Owner in Sports? The case for Jerry Reinsdorf
It was a completely different game in the 1980s. As someone who lived through it, basketball revolved around the big center. Michael changed the game 180 degrees, and no one really saw it coming.- White Sox to hire Derek Shomon as hitting coach, Zach Bove as pitching coach per James Fegan
Which is funny, because years ago under that structure, Chris Getz was out there telling everyone how much freedom he had.- White Sox to hire Derek Shomon as hitting coach, Zach Bove as pitching coach per James Fegan

Martin Perez apparently declined his option. Sure buddy. Ok.- Robert Thread: Sox talking to Reds, Mets
If they got him back to play him again, it is one thing. If this is because they want to try to trade him for the same package of garbage they wouldn't take 3 months ago, this is stupid.- 2025 WS- Dodgers/Blue Jays
People over-estimating the Twins then. They are going to be awful, on top of maybe still having more selling to do. Their farms system is deeper and better at the top, but that will take a couple of years to get to.- SoxMachine Podcast on Free Agent Pitchers
- 2025-26 NFL Season Thread
To follow up on this, the fact that ANY Bears player went closer than 10 yards to the football on the on-side attempt should be a fireable offense. If the ball doesn't go 10 yards, the play is dead. You cannot be in a position to be touched by the football at fewer than 10 yards out, under any circumstances, whatsoever. It cannot happen. Either players need to be released, or the Coach should be fired. Maybe both.- 2025-26 NFL Season Thread
It's still better than being left out.- 2025 WS- Dodgers/Blue Jays
Most prospects are overrated and overhyped in the long run.- 2025-26 NFL Season Thread
Also gotta give it to Caleb who did what he needed to do down the stretch to recover this game for the Bears. Also nice to see a Loveland sighting.- 2025-26 NFL Season Thread
Literally no defense played in this game. None.- 2025-26 NFL Season Thread
The Bears special teams needs to walk home.- “The 78” is alive and well, moisturized and thriving , Viva La Canal's Edge!
How's it working out? The White Sox just set a major league record for the worst season in the 125 year history of major league baseball, and the 2nd worst ever for 2 and 3 seasons combined. Give me trying and failing over not caring at all.- Fall/Winter Ball 2025

Their business is headquartered in Chicago, and the purchasing brother is building a nine figure house in the burbs. Just because we haven't heard of talk, doesn't mean their hasn't been something happening behind the scenes. That is typically how this is done. - The Worst Owner in Sports?
