  1. The way this is set up, JR has control until he is dead or sells out, and there isn't anything the other owners can do about it except sell their shares, and I think JR actually has to approve who they sell them to.
  2. We have gone through this many times, and the Tribune confirmed it years ago, JR could own 1/1000th of the team, he still is in total control, and if he dies, the executor of his estate has control.
  3. JR still controls the team, and unless some of that 30% he actually sold, his bank account didn't get any bigger. Really, if true, nothing to see here.
  4. That’s why you should always wear a Bears mask. You’ll never catch a thing.
  5. Ever notice Jason never pronounces the r in yesterday?
  6. So if you like night games, hope Toronto advances to the ALDS. If the Yankees or Boston do, you know the Sox will be playing in the afternoon.
  7. Cesar was really good when he first came over, then really started sucking in Iowa. Hopefully he can get back to where he was soon.
  8. He's thrown the most innings he has since 2016, and has thrown well over half the innings he has pitched the previous 4 seasons combined, and they are getting stellar production from him. Whether this means he will be a full go at playoff time, or they can only have him for 1 start per playoff series if that, who knows but the White Sox? But I agree, they are doing the right thing.
  9. Eddie Jackson went from so good to so bad so fast. I often think he thinks he's playing flag football.
  10. Yes. He looked good. 3 outings he has looked good for an inning. Just the first one, he got hammered in inning 2 or his ERA would be 0.00, and he'd be k-ing around a batter an inning. Not bad for a guy who can't keep a roster spot.
  11. When he was up before, he didn't look so bad except his first outing when he went in for his second inning.
  12. Norm McDonald,61. 9 year private battle with cancer.
  13. What is interesting is Romy is now apparently ahead of Mendick with the White Sox people who decide such things.
  14. The Seby 4-4 , 3 HR game might be the biggest outlier game in MLB history. What are the odds? He's a .146 hitter without that game on the season, under .140 for the career. with a k-rate approaching 50%. He is basically a pitcher hitting.
  15. A woman who made anti-vaxx videos, and bragged that she has never worn a mask and called police on those trying to make her wear one, got Covid and was hospitalized. She wanted to be treated with horse dewormer. She won't be making any more videos or calling the police.
  16. The Sox were thought to be the team that was going to sign Soto at one time but the Nats came in at the end.
  17. If Father Time is finally catching up to Aaron Rodgers, this division is going to make past versions of the NFC East look like juggernauts.
  18. I'm between 300 and 400 on the Bears season ticket waiting list. Looks like next year is a lock. Pace needs to go. Nagy needs to go. The McCaskeys need to go. Ted Phillips needs to go. This team is awful. I didn't expect them to beat the Rams, especially in LA, but that defense is horrible. They might be the only team who can downgrade an offensive line that had Leno Jr. and Massie as its starting tackles. I know, injuries. They draft a guy who is only available because he has a bad back. He has back surgery. Shocking.
  19. He was great as a rookie. Now he couldn't tackle anyone in a Pee Wee game. What a waste of money.
  20. So you really think the Cubs would have traded Bryant to the White Sox? RH admitted he had to pay a White Sox tax on Kimbrel. Bryant is more beloved.
  21. Exactly. He gets overexposed, but he is quite valuable with his versatility and speed, and his teammates love him. Great guy to have on the bench.
  22. That’s the whole thing. It wasn’t real. Sure the Sox might have inquired and thrown some names at them, but it wasn’t going to happen.
  23. All that matters at this point is how Kimbrel or Krimble as Ozzie calls him, does in the playoffs. If he helps them win, the cost was high but a case will be made it was worth it. If he doesn’t, it was a bad trade. I think he has shown enough that no one is going to trade the Sox something useful and pay him $16 million, and I don’t think the Sox will pay a set up man that amount.
