Why do you have to ruin legitimate points by going so far overboard that you can see Atlantis?
-
But also cause f*** it, they need pitching and lord knows Gio has cost himself a big contract.
-
That is rough. Sox should just claim Gio and ReyLo for the lols.

I need to know where we rank "woman shoots herself and another fan after discharging a gun stored in her fat rolls, thus leading to the cancellation of a Vanilla Ice concert" ranks in the Absurd / Ridiculous Moments in White Sox history The last decade is stacked, but we've got Black Sox Scandal Chris Sale shredding jerseys Drake LaRoche Disco Demolition Night Sox fans attacking Tom Gamboa Trading our manager mid-season after he negotiated with another team to be their manager The shorts - I feel like they don't hold a candle to these, but are an honorable mention Belly fat gun Illinois legislature turning off clocks to prevent Reinsdorf from leaving the state (both good and bad) Hiring the play-by-play announcer as the GM; ends in disaster Tony LaRussa's DUI right after he's hired after a decade of not managing The Yermin Saga What am I missing?

Eh, f*** it. Now that JR has crushed the last bit of hope, I can't be disappointed.

Man, say what you will about Michael Reinsdorf, AKME, and how it's turned out but at least they tried to change things up.

You're probably thinking of Ted Stepien's nonsense. He traded five consecutive first-round picks, which is why the NBA has banned trading first rounders in consecutive years. The NBA then let new owners purchase draft picks because Stepien's trading had been so harmful. It was $500,000 per pick, which was a lot to a team at the time. The only trade I know of where the league was like "this is s%*#" was the Chris Paul to Lakers deal, where the NBA were acting owners of the (then) Hornets. As far as MLB overturning trades, bad/secret medicals would have to be exchanged. MLB overturned Colin Rea for Luis Castillo for the Marlins after San Diego failed to disclose an injury. They offered the Red Sox the opportunity to overturn Drew Pomeranz for Anderson Espinoza. Painfully, the White Sox were one of the teams that seemed to also be involved but didn't get the chance to undo the moronic trade.

I think a combination of Kim Ng saying "called up my boy Kenny Williams" + McGuffey's "KW had authority to trade with the Marlins and Yankees" + Garfein's "Hahn didn't want to trade Burger, Kenny did and traded Burger" paints a pretty clear picture, especially when one is a primary source. FWIW, I may be confusing Garfein and McGuffey, but yeah, this was a KW trade.

Alright everyone, looks like we know when the GM search is ending, a proposal to play in Lake Michigan is leaked, and a fan brings a katana into the stadium.

Bama please alert us to all vacations you have on your calendar

I wonder what would have happened if they hadn't blocked the White Sox from picking Benintendi (we grabbed Fulmer that draft).
-
Opens Wikipedia Second Paragraph FWIW, his Dodgers tenure was 2001-2004.
-
Yeah, I'm really confused how this is "bittersweet memories." This is like me trying to lose weight and then relaying to a friend how I ate a slice of cake yesterday.
-
I want to see Elko challenge Vaughn, but Elko's got a really high BABIP and strikes out 10% more. I think Yoan has scarred me for life on high BABIP, high strikeout guys.
-
Honestly, I can see Hahn landing a job as a contract negotiator if he's willing to take it. He had that one skill. I can't see KW taking anything but a GM role.

Sox medical staff now that KW/Hahn are gone: "Ok guys, we're actually allowed to institute a stretching regimen." -

Grifol isn't here for that nonsense. -
That means it's time to hire someone from the Dodgers.
