  1. Yes you are right. Everyday in Charlotte.
  2. Punched an umpire in the face? What's wrong with that?
  3. He gave us a world series championship. For that I will be forever grateful. Would the Sox have won a few more if he never owned the team? Speculate all you want. I have felt for many a year now he should sell the team. Chicago can still support two teams and plenty of monied people would love a MLB franchise. Yes maybe the most successful. If he didn't luck into drafting Michael Jordan he would be possibly the most failed.
  4. Colas should go to AAA to learn to hit off speed stuff. Kopech is better suited to the bullpen Robert should be hitting lower in the batting order
  5. Does Colas need to go down to AAA? Is Kopech better out of the pen? Should Robert be batting 5th or 6th?
  6. I never thought I'd say this this but fire Pedro now and bring in Ozzie. Tell him to crap on their egos and just win ballgames.
  7. They can do it without even trying. Oh wait they don't try.
  8. I've been around for some terrible years ( some excellent ones too). I guess maybe the let down of high expectations, kinda like 1984 makes it seem worse. However this year just feels worse. I don't see emotion in the players faces after flailing away at a pitch low and outside. With very few exceptions I get the feeling it's all fine with them. What's the big deal? We are in America and rich. What could be better?
  9. I'm tired of getting my soul crushed year after year. I guess that is just part of being a baseball fan in general and a White Sox fan in particular. At least this frees up my summer.
  10. 1970 1976....but those teams gave a s%*#. They were just not very good. These guys today are from a background where success is measured differently. Winning is not number one.............. They are boring.
  11. Yes all true. Also paying less in advance with contracts for still unproven players results in less money paid out, but it also steals motivation. Why work for your first big contract when you already got it? Swing at anything and try to make the highlight reel back home. Move a runner over or bunt? Don't be ridiculous. I'm a star. Stars don't do that. They hit homers.
  12. I think they are free swingers and can't get it through their head not to chase off speed stuff. Why? In order to get noticed back on the island or in South America you had to HIT. Walks will not get you a big league contract. They just can't change, This mentality got them here. MLB pitchers exploit this, Will they learn in time? Some do.
  13. The further you get geographically the further away you get emotionally.
  14. Point taken but maybe they simply put them in a position to almost win. Either ya do or ya don't. Everyone has a reason why they didn't. If you don't believe me just ask'em.
  15. He's the reason the Aron Rowand Jim Thome trade was made. He would take over centerfield. He had a few good moments, A 3 homer game in Seattle?
  16. c'mon lets not be a bunch of quitters. Circle the wagons and fight.
  17. If winning a championship is the true litmus test then Rays have ZERO championships and the Dodgers have the same as the white Sox (ONE) since 1988.
