There are some franchises that you just shouldn't give up on until the all star break. This isn't one of them.

I know it's only April but this season has died. I'm at acceptance with a garnish of apathy. The team has taught me to work through this quickly, I've had about forty seasons of practice. Looking ahead to the next time they are competitive I'll be retired and full time traveling. I can do a road trip with them. It will be nice.

It's like after buying a new car, that moment when you have to make the first payment and think what the f*** did I do? Only this team could make him miss KC

Didn't Stone call him out a year or so ago?

It use to be so simple. Blame Tony and Leury. Sigh. I miss the good old days.

Wow, that is some pop up power. It took about sixty seconds to come down.

This is brutal. My MLB TV subscription was free but I still want a refund.

I agree. My original response was to highlight the anomaly of the Rays having a small payroll.

Sucks most of the money is going to a guy fighting cancer and not playing.

I've been an owner of Coke for several decades. I never got much of a say in how it was run.

Damnit JR for spending too much money. How many time have we complained about his over spending?

Yes! I'm a traditionalist. White Sox baseball like my grandfather knew.

Like Katz

Thank you. I did laugh.

He was released by the River Rats last month so the Giants gave up on him. I don't think he had a lot of options over the past month but I could be wrong. I will say that as often as we have injuries, it's a great spot for him. I hope he picked up a middle infielder glove on the way. Leury Piscotty to the rescue.

Exactly. Music videos, gaming, fall colors, and golf is tiring. They need to be rested for October.

If a Hall of Fame manager couldn't get these guys to perform what chance does a guy with no manager experience have?

Season ticket holder to Sox and Bulls. Had a deal with Bears and Hawks season ticket holders to buy some of their games. It was a big deal in my life. When work sent me to deep Texas I thought I'd be really upset leaving that behind. Well in the mid 90s the Bulls were on TV all the time and after attending 41 games plus playoffs for years, I was a little burned out anyway. Later the character of the Spurs won me over. Bye Bulls. Football season games went from Sunday to Saturday. Now with college becoming semi pro, I stopped really watching any football. Bye Bears (but I still peak and am excited for the next few years) For the reasons with Spurs won me over with their character the Hawks lost me. Bye Hawks. Then there is this heaping pile. A couple years ago it was pointed out to me how epically crappy this franchise has been. I use to think we were kind of average and could cheer through most anything. Plus now that I am teaching and coaching I'm watching more high school games.

Who is in the draft? #1 pick Let's go Hahn

I truly envy you.

It's not even May and we know there won't be any post season play. The "window" was in reality a watercolor painting running with the tears of Sox fans down the brick wall of a condemned building. I just moved $1000 in my summer vacation budget from Sox games to Lake Michigan fishing. Anyone have a recommendation on a good charter captain? I may want to go out of Kenosha.

Iowa or Kansas I think would work for you.

I read this definition of a coach that also applies to teachers. Someone who makes you do things you don't want to do to reach the goals you want to do.
