  1. Friends and family like most of the former coaching staff. I'm wondering why they kept him.
  2. This is a huge loss if they hope to set the record. Cease is about the only one who could single handedly (no pun intended) end the streak with a complete game shut out. 8 and 13 would be his.
  3. I believe apathetic is closer to the truth than pissed and harder to overcome going forward.
  4. *aka bad ideas. Bring back Leury in the #3 spot to spark some hitting.
  5. Currently at 7 games. Sox record 15 AL record 21 MLB record 23 It's a long way to go but the lack of give a s%*#, offensive, and bull pen makes it all possible. They really don't need much to go wrong. Just keep playing like the past couple weeks and by the middle of May it could be a historic season.
  6. Watching those early 1970s teams on fuzzy, snowy, UHF channels maybe clouds my judgement because I see this team's s%*# in high def 4k.

    Someone should write a story of the 2005 to today White Sox. Maybe compare it to Bed Bath and Beyond or Enron
  8. You don't hire a GM you rent their luck.
  9. Dare to dream. If they trade some starting pitching it's within reach.
  10. JR please hire a guy who in his last gig led a team picked to win their division to a 69-93 record eleven years ago to be our next manager. Bonus points if he can piss off major sections of the fan base. Checking the usual list. You won't be bidding against anyone else, he is an ex player, and drinks a lot.
  11. I started a thread. 15 consecutive losses is the Sox record. These guys could break it.
  12. I think this team could break the record of 15 consecutive losses. I think they have the offense and bullpen, two key ingredients, to make that happen. I am worried about Cease tossing a shut out in a 1-0 win.
  13. The only redeeming point is Hutchins' husband is involved in the project.
  14. My thought was well. I'm not certain that finishing Rust is tasteless or a tribute.
  15. The guys many want to keep are the same guys that fetch the most in a trade and the most likely to not sign another contract with this team.
  16. Can you blame Tony for last year and not blame Pedro for this?
  17. You can smell them all the way down in Arizona.
  18. Sigh. Why do I stay a fan? I'm not in Chicago, I could have declared free agency as I entered Texas. There are the Astros and Rangers here. So easy to follow. I don't even have to check the current standings to know they are doing better.
  19. Only he knows with 100% accuracy his culpability. I was talking with a buddy about a show we were doing. We had an actor in a show I was doing bring a real gun instead of the cheesy prop they gave us. (Several cast members all contacted the producer and he was instructed to never again bring in.) But it was during that show I realized I handled the prop differently than I would have a real gun. I couldn't bring myself to point it at anyone. I wonder if a veteran actor like Baldwin would have had that same hesitation. If so, I believe he was 100% certain it wasn't a live round. After the restart they invested in 100% replicas. I hope that becomes the industry standard so this could never happen again.
  20. And please Kenny retire, Hahn get promoted, and hire someone to oversee the rebuilding. It's the best path that is within reason based on the long history of front office moves.
  21. Get them healthy and sell. Everyone. There are no players left who could help in four years.
  22. There are some franchises that you just shouldn't give up on until the all star break. This isn't one of them.
