I've had the feeling Mcconnell almost preferred Biden at this point. I honestly think he hated Trump

yeah but those are state laws. I'm talking federal laws

FYI Supreme Court precedent is not law. This is another reason why congress needs to actually write laws after courts write their decisions. It cements precedent into place with a legal binding which brings consequences to those who act in defiance. If congress had passed federal law legalizing abortion after Roe v Wade, states like those in the south wouldn't be able to pull the shit they're pulling. But there's another discussion to be had on why hot button issues that have a court precedent set are never cemented into federal law (politicians get to use those issues as scare tactics to maintain their grip on power, "Vote for me or the Republicans will make abortion illegal!" or "the Dems will take your guns!")

I'd bet $100 that he wins it. I'd bet more if I had it ?

I would definitely trade Cease as part of a Nimmo deal edit: I knew about his hand injury but just found out he has a bulging disc in his neck. fuck.

No

so we are about 75-80 pages post TLR confirmation and there are people still defending it even with facts showing that he wasn't the best available pick I'm out ?

holy shit, Passan lit TLR and JR the fuck up. that was amazing

apparently it took them until the end of October, shouldn't have surprised anyone either

Jerry Reinsdorf is a billionaire narcissist and a horrible owner. Apparently he has no shame mechanism, or even a shred of self respect. Literally nobody except Jerry and Tony were fans of this move.

Sadly the Sox have been offering the most money to guys and they still choose someone else to play for

Just wanted to post my thoughts about this LMFAO, typical White Sox move. I can't wait until Reinsdorf is gone

Sorry to be hopping into this thread a bit late, but can someone summarize the last 2-3 days, where it was basically concluded that the Sox are hiring LaRussa?

if there was ever a period of time that Hahn was really gonna push Reinsdorf to spend money it would be these next 3 to 4 years I don't think they wanna ruin a successful rebuild because they were penny pinching

bolded, italicized, underlined we have no way of knowing this without asking the players directly or somebody reporting on it personally I find it hard to believe that the team that offers the best contract won't sign player X, Y, or Z regardless of who the coaching staff has on it

Billionaires are the "quiet part out loud" of capitalism

imagine simping for a guy who traded away the most talented player in sox history after frank thomas, for an overpriced shit sandwich. "CONGRATS RICK,I WULD WEAR UR JERSEY IF U HAD 1"

yeah Tony LaRussa isn't what this team needs, let's move forwards not backwards

That's the thing though, if sentence starts with "cheated", any sort of wishy washy self-convincing argument doesn't really matter, as cheating is supposed to be the one rule, the one unsteppable line that cannot be crossed, according to people who have a say in the matter anyway. Pete Rose has a lifetime ban from baseball, and you could argue what the astros did was worse This is a thought exercise, and even though I would still follow the Sox religiously, I would also know that I'm being hypocritical. Is cheating that bad at the end of the day? Should we hold people accountable more like Pete Rose or more like Hinch/Cora?

is there a precedent for what the timeline looks like after the season ends for when a new manager is hired? Will the interview process have already started? Do they have to wait until after the world series? Will a new manager be hired before December?

Crochet is fine Madrigal just had shoulder surgery Both skippers out, people assuming Hinch is the target Oh and I didn't know that Grandal was a juicer ?‍♂️

I'm out of the loop, didn't even know about that that's hilarious ?

Astros have better analytics and data assessment tho don't they? maybe Hinch can bring some new ideas over with him.

imagine a sox player getting busted for peds, some of you guys would be twisting yourselves into knots telling us why you still support them, that they just made a mistake, the mental gymnastics would be amazing I picked option two fwiw

wow, way to be a piece of dog shit to a random person on the internet. well done
