Comcast was in business with these teams and each team let themselves go to hell. They aren’t going to take on risk being in business with them again.
-
They probably had a defibrillator on hand when they told him. It used to be all the Cubans. Now it’s all the rule 5s.

Unless you have elite starting pitchers, why wouldn't you use an opener the vast majority of the time? You are going to use the bullpen anyway. If you get the opposite handedness, it forces the other manager's hand, and his bench is either blown in the 3rd inning or your opener is going to be R/R or L/L for the most part.

If the White Sox play .500 the rest of the season, they will only lose 88 games. 6 teams did worse in 2024.
-
Generally, Building a team off the waiver wire and minor league contracts because no other team will give them a major league contract, gets you more losses than you thought possible. I get that the White Sox have to be bad. But do they really have to keep being this bad?

You have got to be bleeping me, Wegner.
-
The saddest thing is, the White Sox and Bulls obviously and the Blackhawks have known for a year or two what was going down with Comcast, yet, just like their teams, they weren't prepared.

Coming into todays game Vargas is hitting .118 with the Sox.. one fucking eighteen.

White Sox (4-14) @ Red Sox (10-10) 6:10 p.m. CST
Dick Allen replied to caulfield12's topic in 2025 Season in Review
Martin Perez pitching like Martin Perez. That’s unfortunate. -
12-25 41-121 4-14 Since Getz failed upward, the chart is still going down, so he might not be wrong.
-
Just remember you can’t waste a year.
-
The extra 20 lbs Vargas put on is going to make him an all star.
-
Getz is historic. He got to 100 games below .500 as a GM faster than Pedro did as a manager.
-
Sox 2-3-4 hitters today are all hitting under .150. The hitting guru Getz hired because he was lucky enough the Orioles fired him, is already paying off.
-
Murderer's row. This is supposed to be the major leagues.
-
They obviously didn't speak to Gene Watson who said the White Sox front office is the best in baseball.
-
Who knows, but can it get worse? JR isn't going to lead this team out of the abyss.. The one thing most would get out of it, at least initially, is hope.

Ownership breakdown: ishbias 35%, Reinsdorfs 50%
Dick Allen replied to bmags's topic in Pale Hose Talk
What people need to understand is Ishbia could own 99% of the team and JR 1%, JR still has control until he wants to give it up, and apparently he thinks he's the one who can fix all that he has screwed up. Just give up control. Your shares will go up in value instantly. -
Couldn’t play the field, and his strength isn’t the issue. His exit velo were fine. He couldn’t hit the ball in the air.

Robert Jr. Dodgers Trade Rumor Per Nightengale
Dick Allen replied to ChiSoxFanMike's topic in Pale Hose Talk
As bad as Robert has been, Outman is living up to his name in AAA and doing worse. He is nothing at this point. -
Comcast and JR were partners for so long....they knew what was going to happen to the station for the longest time, yet still couldn't put together deals. At least Blackhawk and Bulls fans weren't missing Championship contention.. They are doing Sox fans a favor keeping it off their systems. I unfortunately have the station, and while I rarely watch the Bulls or Blackhawks, the White Sox are a different story. It seemed after the first few games, they looked like they would suck, but at least have some sort of entertainment value. Now it looks like Groundhog Day from 2024.
