  1. Well, this seems familiar…they should have sent someone out there to warn him since the earpiece wasn’t working. At least he didn’t say something politically incorrect to become the headline story.
  2. Really out of breath but took advantage of that huge break…
  3. FCC not amused. Just don’t get hurt.
  4. https://www.yahoo.com/news/rob-manfred-says-stan-kastens-182510652.html
  5. Eduardo Rodriguez.
  6. Thought David Harbour's humor and the family dynamic was actually the star of the movie. Some will complain the action/set pieces were too derivative and that it played more like a Bourne or MI spy movie. The one thing that felt out of place was the tone... should we feel guilty for BW being objectified or now more comfortably laugh at it because her sister does? It just felt like the whole global trafficking and discarding of women issue was brought up as this heavy topic and then conveniently dropped for a typical Marvel setting up of something else...mostly connecting the hanging storyline points together. Pugh star path on the rise. The best film she has done was about women's professional wrestling.
  7. Obviously you missed the sarcastic joke while lost in the weeds seeing every topic as being an opportunity to fight the righteous fight against snowflakes and the woke crowd.
  8. What team had the fewest home runs in a season and won the World Series? Wiki User ∙ May 28, 2009 3:40PM Best Answer That was the 1906 Chicago White Sox who hit 7 home runs for the season.
  9. Young people don’t feel they need it. Distrust of government, masks, vaccine coming from Trump and right wing media. Concerns about vaccine risks such as heart attacks, future pregnancies, etc. The main reason for most middle class and poor people at least has been unable to get paid time off from work. Bad PR with Johnson & Johnson. Rural locations/lack of convenience or accessibility. Religious objections. Fear of long lines. All these would probably rank higher than distrust of Fauci as reasons.
  10. https://www.yahoo.com/news/uniform-decision-different-look-attitude-120050052.html New Nike uniforms for ASG controversy…guess they’re already sold out.
  11. This sounds like a wedding vow.
  12. https://www.fangraphs.com/players/joey-gallo/14128/stats?position=OF Still has a negative defensive score after positives the last two seasons. Just can’t imagine a 5+ fWAR guy for 1.4 or 1.5 seasons or whatever will come cheap but we will see how many dumpers there are the last 2 weeks of the month. Vaughn, fwiw, now at -3.6 defensively and trending for around 1.5 overall, 2ish if the offense continues like it has in recent weeks.
  13. Too fast for a relatively inexperienced Indiana high schooler...normal progression is 3 1/2 to 5 years.
  14. Better to argue he's not (yet) the superstar a #1 prospect in the game ranking foreshadowed. We've had just one season of that offensively and one defensively (depending on how one counts 2020), minus the 20/20 or 30/30 as he's also missing the big stolen base numbers that were originally attached. He's not the franchise or Mr. White Sox many hoped for in terms of branding.
  15. It’s waning, but first round draft pick “halos” have surrounded players ever since BA started doing their prospect rankings. Look how long Rutherford has held onto such status based on his original selection by the Yankees. It’s also why Burger and even Sheets are getting a lot more notice now…IMO.
  16. Not even sure I’d classify Baddoo and Candelario that way…not until he proves he can sustain the success longer than, say, Gordon Beckham did. He’s a nice hitter to have, but more of a complementary piece.
  17. Well, Fox News is foreign owned.
  18. The funny thing is that very first major league game was at Wrigley against the Cardinals in 1978 or 1979…Garry Templeton was my favorite player then, along with Claudell Washington for the Sox. Jody Davis Eyes feels more early 80s still…some overlap there.
  19. One-quarter of unvaccinated people who make less than $50,000 still say they either "definitely" or "probably" will get the vaccine, according to the Census Bureau. That rises to two-thirds of people when including those who are receptive or "unsure" about getting the vaccine. Editor’s note: This post has been corrected to show one-quarter of unvaccinated people who make less than $50,000 either "definitely" or "probably" will get the vaccine, and two-thirds of unvaccinated people either will "definitely/probably" get the vaccine or are receptive/"unsure" of getting the vaccine. Talk about poorly-phrased…

    So he fits in quite well with the Sox bunting philosophy…
  21. Remember when we brought in Rodon’s personal NC State catcher? And Luca Tresch seems like the host of Entertainment Tonight: Prague.
  22. Interestingly, JR, KW and bad managing took the blame for the majority of 2013-2019. We can cite the first round draft picks making it, and Rodon’s success this season, but who has exceeded expectations from those drafts, besides Tim Anderson? I guess Crochet making it up so quickly in 2020 and looking dominant, Madrigal his last three weeks before going down to injury, Burger even making it to AAA, let alone the majors…but there are just as many question marks about the future of all those guys other than TA7 and Vaughn having a place in the lineup SOMEWHERE next season.
  23. http://www.stevetheump.com/Payrolls.htm#2013_payroll White Sox payroll ranks 2016. 20 2015. 15 2014. 20 2013. 8 2012. 11 2011. 5 2010. 7 2009. 12 2008. 5 2007. 5 2006. 4 2005. 13 2004. 14 2003. 22 2002. 18 2001. 16 2000. 26 Stripping away 2000, a surprise playoff season, you get an average of 12th. But that’s not considering how high top tier the prices for everything (tickets, parking, concessions) were up until the last 5-10 years, where the revenues were consistently higher than average attendance of around let’s say 18th - 24th. To be a Top 4-5 payroll, or even catch the Padres, they would have to increase by at least $40+ million. Nobody expects Top 3, or likely even 4-5, but the last half decade of NOT spending (2016-2019/20) in the top half should get some type of return for the fans’ patience with the rebuild…and seven consecutive non-competitive seasons from 2013-2019, despite the first month+ of 2016.
