Colson Montgomery to AZ Complex
Mostly lefty pitchers. I've never really cared how the players on the MLB roster got there. I guess home grown is nice.

Colson Montgomery to AZ Complex
I couldn't read them all. Is this close? Fans "Hey White Sox, you've messed up every player's development over the past ten years" Team "Whoa, not this one. He messed himself up with outside coaches." If I was a pro athlete in today's game. I'd use some of the $millions to assemble the best private training and coaching team I could. The way players get traded, it just makes sense.

Ownership breakdown: ishbias 35%, Reinsdorfs 50%
I think we're looking at two different aspects. I'm pointing out that looking at hours of operation is just one part of the equation. Total revenue is also important. But, that does make me wonder if Illinois residents are going to contribute to a new stadium*, should it really matter if someone going to the game stops and has dinner in the suburbs, north side, or closer to the park? The money will be spent. Where it is spent with public money involved, might not be that important. *Not advocating for that.

Ownership breakdown: ishbias 35%, Reinsdorfs 50%
While I agree on most of what you posted, there are a few ways to determine who is a "major employer". Could it be that those 81 days, 83 on a great year, bring in more revenue and contribute more to the local economy than the vape store on the corner? Three people working 364 days might be less that hundreds of people working 81 days. I know, for example, many businesses on South Padre Island make most of their profits in March, June, and July. For me if they move from the southside, go all the way to the suburbs. Don't half ass go to a different neighborhood.

Perhaps Vaughn could play in the outfield. I was thinking his only shot at a continued career is a change of scenery. Perhaps a different coaching staff could get him closer to his draft projections. A trade for *cash considerations" would be beneficial to everyone.

Sox acquire Workman
I really feel some empathy for anyone who gets cut from the worst team of all time. That's gotta suck. I also feel bad for anyone who gets traded to the worst team of all time. Even the cash when we get it. I feel like George, Benjamin, and the rest are rolling in their graves.

Circa 2045 - "Grandpa, would you talk to my class about being a baseball player on career day?" "I'd love to. I have a lot of stories about the 2025 White Sox!" /Looks up 2025 White Sox "Could you tell them you were a piano player in a whore house?"

24-25 NFL Thread
The entire draft was underwhelming. Could it be . . . We really didn't want an offensive innovator as head coach. We wanted basic, do it the conventional way that most every other team would. It's comfortable and the Bear's way of doing business for decades. Two tight ends, one blocking - one receiving. WTF? We don't start trends, we catch up to them five years later. I'm willing to watch and see. I'm not willing to get excited, Chicago sports have killed that for me. But I'm willing to wait until week three to say it's a stupid draft pick.

The Detroit suburbs are very nice. If you prefer a quieter, more outdoor rich lifestyle, the Detroit area would be a great option.

I really dislike sudden victory for majors. It seems like a made for TV solution. I would much rather see a three hole playoff. I've of my former players is making her first start as a professional this week. Suddenly I'm following the Epson Tour.- Fire Chris Getz

"getting rid of free TV for games was my biggest mistake". And like TLR fixing that is a bigger mistake. I do find it a little absurd that giving the product away for free is a bad thing. I cut the cable years ago and just stream. I've hooked up an antennae for a while but didn't ready find that I needed it.- Getz move to bulk up on catching newest market niche?
They do touch the ball a lot. Likely influence most of the pitches. But looking at the richest contacts and by the time you get past the top eight or so the rest are making Leury Garcia money.- Tankathon
