Winter Meetings Thread
In looking for things the Sox do well. They consistently underwhelm fans this time of year. Doesn't matter if they come off a WS season or the second most disappointing season in over 125 years of baseball in Chicago. Completely lukewarm.

Xander to the Padres - 11yrs 280M
I think you have to look at the total dollars, subtract a couple years, and see what the real average per year is. I'm other words do you want to spend, for example, $280,000,000 and spread it over 8 or 11 years?

Sox sign Victor Reyes MiLB deal, ST invite

Based on a reasonable consensus of "fire-able" offenses listed here, I think at least 80% of the GMs in baseball should be fired.

2022 Celebrity Death Thread
At different times in my life each band member (even pre Buckingham - Nicks) have kind of been my favorite to listen to. When I was seeing them live, every year or so it seemed like, the attention was always on Nicks. Now I wish I had paid better attention.
