Option one is finding a roommate (s) to share expenses. It's tough to make that a full time situation.

SS2k5 makes a great point that there are only 30 jobs available and you probably have to take one anywhere when you get a chance, but I think anyone in that position is going to think long and hard before moving to the Sox. Of all the friends and family Tony brought in I thought Katz (the weakest family link) and Duncan (biggest family hire) were the best moves.

I'm not surprised that Katz hasn't found a position in two months. He was a friends and family hire by Tony and he coached the worst team in history. The Sox stink will cling to him for a while. I see him at a good college, perhaps as the manager.

That's why I listed it first. It is an interesting career choice. If you are in a great organization to you wait your turn, or jump?

You get a job offer from the White Sox and accept. Why? Desperate to stay at the MLB level? Promotion to a position that no one else will give you? You believe it can be a stepping stone to a better organization? It's a great organization with stability, great facilities, an owner is trying to win, lots of resources, and you just picked up for your second DUI? Maybe, eventually this will stop being the place careers go to die. But I can't imagine anyone telling their agent, see if you can get me into the (white) Sox organization.

The brilliance of being the worst organization in baseball is you can take from any team and it's an upgrade.

We may have sent possible no voters by bus and plane loads to Chicago.

In public funded stadium news San Antonio voters approved money for a new Spurs Stadium. That will mean San Antonio will have three stadiums in current operation that have all hosted NBA games and meet current NBA standards. We would easily approve a NFL training facility or a MLB stadium.

Who can forget the Will? Purdue era. And the fans chanting for Graaaaan Ville in the final moments of a game.

Exactly true. The Bulls front office thought the kid could sell a few tickets.

I think it is fair to expect an owner to recruit a front office that can put together a winning program. So that's basically the baseline of competency for me. He has consistently failed at that for decades. He's failed at what I believe is the minimum to pass.

They have tremendous impact. But they won't receive credit. How much credit do you give JR for those Bulls trophies? We're agreeing the worst owner of sports has seven combined championships in two sports.

How much credit to we give JR for those Bulls trophies?

Signing marquee free agents or locking your players into high dollar, multi year contracts, is certainly a criteria for being a good owner. However I think average total payroll is better, especially in baseball.

Actually, don't run anything. Hire good people and support them. Give them a reasonable amount of time and if their plan doesn't work move on.
