Is “The 78” Dead? Or even more alive? Fire announce plans for SSS
Lip Man 1 replied to soxfan18's topic in Pale Hose Talk
Bears are having their own stadium issues, I don't think they want anything to do with the Sox which would already complicate a bad situation for them. -
As Hawk would say "He gone..."

Depends on your point of view. They've had tremendous success but come playoff time you need guys who can carry a team by them selves if needed. Milwaukee hasn't had a lot of post season success and I think that's one reason. Very, VERY solid team but put a Harper or an Ohtani on that club and they'd really be dangerous. Having a superstar or two really helps, don't minimize this.

Also a very fair point.

0 for the season against Baltimore this year. Lost all six games played. 25th time this year the Sox held an opponent to three runs or less yet lost the game because of little to no offense. Six straight losses, four to go to hit 100 for the third straight season. That's never before happened in the 125 year history of the franchise.

That an an atrocious bullpen.

Wait until you see what happens this off season when JR tells Getz that because of the upcoming labor situation you'll basically get nothing payroll wise and like it.

That's the key off season question, what does JR allow Getz to do given the upcoming labor situation? -

100 losses here we come! With the Padres and Yankees coming up and fighting for playoff positioning the Sox may yet have another double-digit losing streak in them. -
Is “The 78” Dead? Or even more alive? Fire announce plans for SSS
Lip Man 1 replied to soxfan18's topic in Pale Hose Talk
This really doesn't matter. What matters is MLB wants the money that a brand new franchise would go for (Sports Illustrated estimated it a two Billion dollars) as opposed to moving an existing one which would get them a lot less in fees. And again the Nashville Mayor has publicly said after contributing to the Titans new stadium there is no money available for a baseball stadium. The idea of the Sox moving to Nashville is D.O.A. -

Put a second deck in either left or right field for one thing. -
In his four seasons, Poles has drafted 14 players in the first three rounds, where teams expect to land starters. None have made the Pro Bowl. Two — receiver Velus Jones and defensive tackle Zacch Pickens — have already been cut. https://chicago.suntimes.com/bears/2025/09/16/bears-gm-ryan-poles-roster-cant-compare-to-nfc-north-foes

I'd be shocked if there was any announcement or information "coming soon." Well there are a lot of empty areas right next to the current stadium as others have suggested or what I think will happen the Sox are going to stay right where they are with Ishbia trying to improve the surrounding areas and the park itself. -

From a White Sox perspective the important item to note is that the Ishbia's at least tried to win. It didn't work out but they tired. As a Sox fan I'll take that right now over what JR has been giving us especially since 2007. -

Stranger things could happen but this makes the most sense to me. JR isn't getting s#$% from the state and local politicians won't risk their careers giving him money. Maybe if he hadn't already extorted a stadium once before or maybe if the Sox were actually worth a damn on the field since 2007. -
Maybe...maybe not. All depends on what the Twins do or don't do this off season.

More putrid offense. More garbage pitching from Wilson and Alexander. They'll break 100 losses again. -
Those are Adam Dunn-like numbers. Let's hope this isn't what he turns out to be.

I can see them staying at the current location with Ishbia trying to develop the surrounding areas and maybe make some updates to the stadium itself. -
This is the 23rd time in franchise history the Bears have started 0-2. Never before have they turned an 0-2 start into a playoff season.

For some reason my comment double posted

Second time in franchise history the Sox would go winless in Cleveland for a season. They were also winless in 1976.

It's the McCaskey family they have no idea how to run a football team. But hey, a new stadium will solve all our problems! 🤡

Since 2020 the Bears are now 5-27 vs. NFC North.
