I guess we brought Tony back. But if you're a rising star among coaches would you take the WS manager position? I don't believe that's the pool we get to play in. Ex players, managers fired from other non elite organizations, and guys passed over a few times is our talent pool.

Does that happen very often?

Is that going to look good to the next employer? Add quitter to his resume? This organization is a career killer. No wonder we can't attract even middle of the pack talent.

1. Forget about winning, play your youngest players. 2. Get them in as many fights as possible to build team chemistry. 3. Get that resume out there to minor league teams. Maybe save your career.

I remember sitting in a buddy's apartment watching the movie back to back to back on VHS. We were so drunk by the third time. I think we had most of the dialogue memorized.

Pedro, here's a little inspirational movie clip to get the team fired up. It may even get some asses in the seats.

Some sports like golf don't play a traditional conference/non conference schedule. Gymnastics, tennis, etc play tournaments which are everywhere. But your point is right on. I've lost interest in the semi pro versions of college athletics. I'm happy for the athletes and believe it's fair that they are getting paid (although not a piece of the pie they created). I also enjoy watching people play for the love of the game and am looking for opportunities to support that.

He's not really wrong. How many times are we going to be lied to and keep going back?

Me too

Actually worse, you forgot Leury who played at all of those positions and more. (Ok, pitched in relief, but it's close.) Ah misty water colored memories ? ?

I see it more as defending some *actions* as not being totally wrong. The FO hasn't been 100% wrong. But if you defend, for example, dumping Madrigal, then folks claim you're defending Hahn. I believe there is a difference.

The next couple of years will be the equivalent of buying Amazon return pallets. You get all excited thinking it was a bargain then find the hidden damage and missing parts.

You were pre internet? ?

Park on broken glass for $30 same as now ?

By the second and sixth innings the hitters were too tired from running the bases to score. Real men of genius.

Flight time from New York to Mexico City is about the same as NY to LA. Someone will have to explain to JR what the p--- chant is. I'm certain if the soccer crowds use it, the baseball crowds will after a few years of JR and Co.

Actually I was a huge supporter until about two years ago when I finally accepted the facts. And not Texas. Still too much competition for a JR led organization. Mexico City or Guadalajara would be perfect. Huge market. Huge appetite for baseball. Great fans.

Sox Blanco in Mexico City or Guadalajara. Kenny can get direct flights from Arizona.

Didn't they have Isaiah Thomas and Joe Dumars? Both Hall of Fame and top 50 types. Here's the crazy part. If we liked JR we would applaud his financial savvy to buy the Bulls right after they drafted MJ. Instead we chalk it up to luck and assume they would have screwed up the draft and picked someone else.

Exactly. We have the absolute worse coaching, managing, and front office staff. So maybe Katz only looks good in comparison. Folks want to believe there is something of value in the organization. There just isn't.

They don't want to be here, fans are moving on to other things and finished with this franchise. Just move finally.

I wonder how many championships any NBA team wins without a superstar. The Mariners can make a claim as the worst franchise ever, let's see how many ways the Sox are worst.

JR addressing team owners on how to make money with a team. "the next couple of years we expect to lose 90 to 100 games while we play guys that would be developing in AAA in a quality organization. We're paying AAA salaries and receiving MLB revenue. Best of all, our hardcore fans demand and support it! Don't worry, there's something in this for the rest of baseball. If any of the crap we drafted and rush through miraculously turn out to be players, we'll trade them to you instead of paying big contracts and just start the process over again. Leave Chicago? With these suckers? Hahaha" f*** this organization and a hundred year tradition of delivering crap.

I want a roster of guys who never give up. Play every game to win. Never accept losing. This culture of accepting losses is unacceptable and why we suck for a hundred years.

White Sox baseball should never be about wins. That's stupid.
