If this guy thinks the Cubs are getting him, they're not interested. He's the anti-source

I'm surprised the Cubs haven't expressed interest. Then again, their need to support Addison Russell is crazy town so maybe the screws are coming loose on the north side.

Tough to watch. However, I'd rather they be terrible than mediocre. Get that draft pick.

I just feel like humans are meant to work. FIRE just seems like a thing people can brag about like cord cutting. Good for you, I'm going to go have a cool experience at a nice restaurant because I can live my life and have a job.

Yup. It's the same reason Lincoln-Way East is good and the other LW schools aren't as good. Frankfort is just so much wealthier with more football kids.

Your Skip Bayless level takes are tiring.

Not even that extreme. I can't stand the constant pessimism from some on the board. It's one thing to say "I think it's probably not likely we get Bryce Harper". It's another thing to crap on everyone else here and be like "Everyone should be prepared to be disappointed because our FO is going to get only scraps". Attitude matters, and @Dick Allen's is terrible. We get enough negativity from watching the team lose without DA being like "oh, by the way it's all for nothing!" If sports don't make you happy, don't watch. That's it.

Hahn and Williams will know what they're allowed to offer, but don't pretend any player is going to circumvent management.

#garbagedickallensays Seriously, the dude is unreal.

It's based on a faulty premise anyway. Boras is negotiating with FOs, not owners.

Look, we're basing this on a @Dick Allen making on unfounded claim about Boras negotiating directly with owners. And, obviously the Sox disagree if they're filming a video at the United Center.

That would be pretty good for us. Who are the winningest MLB owners (regardless of sport)? Jerry has 7 championships.

To your credit, it's not really trolling, it's just a dark cloud everywhere. It's your "you might as well be disappointed because this front office has thrown away the team" type takes. They're simply not true.

I come here to discuss my optimism but you pollute every thread with your dark cloud. I wish I understood you better. At some point you had to have been happy with White Sox baseball, right?

You legit need to stop projecting whatever other disappointments you have onto this board. Your "be disappointed in preparation to be more disappointed" attitude has taken a huge toll on the quality of your posts and your high post count has given you an outsized influence on the morale of this board.

Come on, silly! He meant "other than the whole organization being rebuilt from top to bottom and the farm system getting restocked". It's funny how the guys who invoke "reality" in an argument are the ones who ask silly questions.

It's almost impossible to project when we don't know how many teams are interested in Harper.

It's not hard to understand. It's an irrational White Sox fan's take. His takes are all silly: "We're going to fail, so might as well be disappointed now" or "Adam Engel has something to do with the success of this rebuild" It's just low rent baseball takes.

Mizzou is just a typical Martin team. Get nothing out of high end talent.

Thibs is a dead man walking, right? He's a brilliant tactician but he's a bad coach and a bad GM. Lot of people on this board eating crow. FO looks good on two fronts.

Engel is not a prospect. His influence on the success of the rebuild is negligible. True to form. Don't ever change. #moregarbagedickallensays

Your username highlights the bottom of our White Sox lifetimes. You're a real piece of work. And don't try to play off pessimism as jest. It's not funny here. We have enough of that crap on this board.

He's probably top 10. Trout is probably like exactly 5

Change your username, troll Or at least change your Av to a Cubs logo or something so we know where you stand.
