Getz is not going anywhere.

Gordon Beckham, it's your turn on the Price is Right!

Guaranteed Rate
Chicago Tribune published an in-depth investigation into the culture at Guaranteed Rate. Pretty negative claims are being alleged by multiple ex-employees. I can't imagine the Sox are very pleased. Could a name change be coming sooner rather than later?

Jose Abreu Released
The fans didn’t get a chance because of his decision not to play. The Sox tried and he didn’t want to give the fans the opportunity to say thanks.

Fire Pedro Grifol
Last Year, every game they lost was the end of the world for Grifol? I guess he's embraced losing now.
-
Sox looking at building in South Loop
No thanks. He is running AEW to the ground.

Jake Burger
The amount of vitriol the Burger trade received was of epic proportions. Yes, he would be an everyday player on the Sox roster. Doesn't change the fact that he isn't that good.
-
The moment this all started
They didnt come because JR is cheap. Period.
-
Who would you pick to replace Grifol? Outside the box answers only.
Jerry Reinsdorf. Owner/Manager combo for the win.

Fire Pedro Grifol
I would take Ozzie over Grifol but the game has passed Ozzie up. I can't imagine that there are many good candidates out there that would want to manage this train wreck. The roster sucks, the minor league system sucks and the owner refuses to spend money. Much like the roster, we are stuck with rejects.

Fire Pedro Grifol
The good thing for Pedro is his boss and the team's owner are even dumber.

Benetti returns to Chicago...
I am convinced that people that dislike Benetti are fans of Pat McAfee and/or Barstool and that says it all.

Any word on who’s throwing out the first pitch today?

Andy Reid actually wins.

Jerry visits Nashville mayor
Exactly how I feel. I know that this is a business but pulling these stunts, after massively underperforming, is infuriating. JR, you are the problem sir. It's not the city. It's sure as hell not the fans. It's you.

The old man needs to go. I truly despise him.

I wish we had a Trout and an Ohtani.

Benetti to Tigers
Brooks Boyer, another yes man for JR. He's managed to live off his luck of working for the Bulls when they didn't need marketing. He's had 1 good marketing campaign in his entire run with the Sox and he hired a company to do that. I look forward to the day the team is sold and all these clowns lose their jobs.

Benetti to Tigers
I sure as hell didn't tune in to watch good baseball being played. Jason at least did his best to make it enjoyable. I don't understand why so many Sox fans don't like him. Yet on a national level, fans LOVE him and recognize his talent. How they let a homegrown fan leave is beyond stupidity. But not surprising considering what a joke this franchise has become.
-
Benetti to Tigers
No reason to tune in to watch any games. Jason was amazing. This organization is a joke and I am done supporting it.

2023-24 NFL Season Thread
A coworker has connections to someone on the team. He heard there was a raid at Williams house and that computers were confiscated. He also heard that his computer(s) at Halas Hall were also taken. The rumors are very bad.

It’s official - Getz named SVP & GM
Griffol was hired because that's who Getz wanted. Griffol is not going anywhere. And for those thinking that this hire was in preparation of JR selling in a couple of years. That makes no sense. If JR was going to sell in the near future, he would try and MAXIMIZE the value. This hire does the opposite.

It’s official - Getz named SVP & GM
I agree with everything except Ozzie got canned because of his mouth. Ozzie quit on the team. Ozzie took a different job. Ozzie is a whole different problem.

Unfortunately that will be as useless as that Sell JR Sell billboard.
