Tony LaRussa to plead guilty to lesser charge
Dick Allen replied to southsider2k5's topic in Pale Hose Talk
One thing he could do to show he is sincere and legit, is to voluntarily install one of those devices he would have to blow into to get his car started. I have an alcoholic family member who has never been arrested. He has driven drunk many times, hundreds if not thousands, been to rehab 4 times. Been in an ambulance twice after falling down drunk, once at a Home Depot and once at a liquor store. The thing that finally , cross my fingers, seemed to work was being monitored. He had to blow into a machine twice a day and the results went directly to a doctor. It could determine if hehad a sip.After that ran its course, he volunteered a device for his car. -

Dick Allen replied to southsider2k5's topic in Pale Hose Talk
I would agree except with LaRussa saying he doesn't have a drinking problem. If he determined that to be the case, fine but leave it to yourself. Say something like you have taken alcohol counseling and learned a lot about yourself. A guy handcuffed twice for driving drunk 8snt going to win anyone over by saying he has no problem. There are many of us White Sox fans who have had their lives effected by a drunk driver whether the victim is the fan himself or a close friend or family member. For something the team supposedly has zero tolerance for happening again, they didn't take the first rerun too seriously. -

Could you imagine if the Sox actually eliminated LaRuusa after they were made aware? NIGHTENGALE would have written a column the day they announced Hinch saying LaRussa was a done deal if it wasn't for his 2nd DUI arrest. And we all would be thinking OK Bob. -

He's always straightforward, that is probably why he admitted to this cop he had one glass of wine and admitted when they found him passed out at the wheel in FL he had 2 glasses. He's a punk ass clown. -

I must admit I sang that out loud. LMAO. -
FoxNews had to run retractions on Lou Dobbs show Jeanne Pirros show and Maria Bartaroma's show about someone their false claims for fear of another lawsuit.

I think Draft Pick is a bit too much after reading this post. It is more undrafted free agent quality.

It does say obey the orders of the president but also support and defend the constitution which does not support martial law . Flynn admitted Trump would have to put the constitution on pause to do this. A true patriot. Just the fact that Trump even considered this should be enough to involk the 25th.

And now POTUS finally says something about the big cyber attack, and he comtradicts his intelligence, and his SoS, says it was overblown, it wasn’t that big, and it was probably China, not Russia. Putin is going to miss comrade Trump.

Exactly. What, you were arrested for drunk driving again? Please be our manager, we will give you several million a year the next 3 years guaranteed. Just don’t answer any questions, don’t talk to the press, we will put it on our PR team to make this story go away. We are sure your lawyer get get the charges reduced, after all it’s been a decade since you fell asleep while driving drunk. They can’t hold that against you. I have a feeling that most people if they let a potential employer know about a dui arrest, their second, would be eliminated from consideration. Considering the White Sox situation, you would think there were were other candidates worthy of the job.

The fact that Michael Flynn was at the WH speaking with Trump yesterday and Trump floated using the military with his advisors should scare the shit out of everybody. Allegedly, he was told the military wouldn’t carry out his orders. It is time to use the 25th amendment. It is not worth seeing this last month through. He almost hired Sidney Powell yesterday as a special counsel to look at voter fraud. Not all speech is free. He has crossed the line. He should already be in jail for his admitted crimes. This is another.

I have no problem with them getting it, but I do have a problem if one person who actually took this seriously is delayed from getting it because of these phonies.

The anti maskers, all those downplaying it should go to the back of the line. Raging alcoholics don't go to the front of the line for a liver transplant. Frontline Healthcare and nursing homes,, then essential workers like those who work in grocery stores and processing plants, then peoplle with conditions, then older without, then the rest of us. Thats how I think this should go.

When he said this virus will be behind us by Memorial Day, to his credit, he didn’t mention which year. I don’t know why his wife should hop the line, but they are going to do that with Biden’s and Harris spouses as well.. Seems that is 3 doses that should be used on frontline healthcare workers first.

Restaurants and bars need to be shut down until it is safe, and that industry should have done for it what Republicans are willing to do for farmers, with that ongoing socialist program, and airlines. Airlines got a huge bailout, and they employ 50,000 people and their senior execs are still getting paid huge salaries. Restaurants employ over 1,000,000 and they get a PPP loan which covered 2.5 months of payroll which is 60% of a restaurant’s expenses in a pandemic now entering its 10th month. It makes zero sense. In Canada they at least help with the rent. During the pandemic the restaurant pays 25% of its rent, the government picks up 50%, and the landlord eats 25%. That seems pretty reasonable.

It will probably pick up. Rick was busy interviewing with the Phillies.

The other thing with Crochet is we have no idea how he would hold up with a regular bullpen workload. We saw him pitch 6 innings after pitching 3 in college and spending time at an alternate site. He looked about as good as you can look for 6 innings.

Jason Castro is a guy the Sox really wanted a few years ago. Could it be another case of KW always gets his man?
-
He only has 132 innings pitched in college. I really doubt they could pull a Sale with him. Sale unbelievably went from a reliever to 192 IP the next season. It really was incredible. I had MLBN on a couple of years ago and they had a Texas Ranger talking about Sale when he was a White Sox and had a start against them. He said they knew Sale’s elbow was bothering him so much he wouldn’t throw a slider, and they still didn’t touch him. The guy even pitched hurt. He is a one in a lifetime. With Crochet, the Sox either need to shit or get off the pot with him. If he is going to be a starter, I think you are correct, he needs to be in the minor leagues getting stretched out. If he is the next Chapman, hopefully he holds up. His playoff injury may have spooked them. If you recall, Sale had an injury concern and KW announced he would be going back to the bullpen. Sale called and yelled and changed KWs mind. I don’t know if Crochet has that in him.

Jose De Leon is Destroying Puerto Rican Winter League
Dick Allen replied to bmags's topic in Pale Hose Talk
Yes Hawk did, it was after he claimed Bonilla in the rule 5, from the Pirates. And DeLeon turned into the One Dog, so it wasn’t that terrible especially considering if he was still around maybe Frank Thomas or Robin Ventura aren’t drafted. -
Even her haters have to admit Hillary was right about one thing, he is Putin’s puppet.

Owners would like to delay season until vaccine
Dick Allen replied to southsider2k5's topic in Pale Hose Talk
I would say those not willing to change are cowards. It’s a freaking pandemic. Over 300k lost. More people are dying from Covid everyday than anything else. -
Laura Ingahram who on Fox News tells Greg wearing masks is worthless and may even be harmful, wears a mask.

Dick Allen replied to southsider2k5's topic in Pale Hose Talk
Maybe, maybe not. If they lost their entire season last year to fan less games, I would bet this upcoming season would be a little different. Also, the MLB players keeping protocol for 6 months? Yeah right. They were complaining they would have to go 2 months without seeing their families. -

Dick Allen replied to southsider2k5's topic in Pale Hose Talk
No they are not. They are hoping to play 72 games. And that was missing 7 games from last season. MLB missed their entire season. If they played 140 games, that would be what the NBA is doing, and they didn't get 90% of the season in before the pandemic.
