Brooks responded but its also a copy paste response. He adds a line if you put your name saying thanks for putting your name on it.

Just sent my email to them also. Was very kind in the mail but made sure my point was made. Hopefully more do also. Just remember who ever you email isnt JR so go easy on them.

Game 2 alds agaisnt the redsox. Got a call from a friend saying if i could get to his house before they leave they had an extra ticket for me. iguchi with the big homerun and i nearly knocked my friends girlfriend over while celebrating

I will be honest though the nickname Houston Asterisks is great nickname.

Thanks, and wow its so obvious but of course i know what to listen for now.

May have missed someone saying it but how were they letting batters know it was an off speed pitch , was someone banging on the dugout thats what i heard at work. Also has anyone gone back to see footage of them doing it and was it obvious? Also what do people think about a runner on second stealing signs for the batter, is that ok cause he is in play? Obviously someone with binoculars in the outfield is not ok.

While i feared it was a sox management crush that made them get Mazara it appears the cardinals wanted him also. They tend to hit on things pretty well so maybe he breaks out here.

People have a right to spend their time however they want. There is no reason this season i should spend 3 hours a day watching them this year or spending my money at the ballpark. I will watch eloy day whenever that comes. If you look in your heart and feel you need to watch every game this year and support this organization your a few crayons short of a full box.

Ervin is 36. The same age manny will be when he is a free agent. Only ten more years till the sox get their man.

Sox not spending money means neither do i. Also i doubt we get harper. Time to find a new team to watch the next few years

Maybe chicago white sox fan get a valentines day gift tommorrow?

The only bad thing about when he finally signs is these amazing thread titles will stop.

Pretty sure my dog barked the name manny today, has to be a sign, or i have baseball fever in the middle of winter.

Everytime i hear the new message ping i keep hoping its saying he has signed.

It just seems like its to much money for either of these players, but i guess when you go down the road five years other contracts maybe similar, but it does scare me committing so much money to one player.

They have made a ton of moves the last few years, again, they just haven't worked out. They know there is a problem, and are trying to fix it. It just isn't the way that most people want to see. But they are trying. maybe thats the problem, they are not doing what everyone else can easily see they should be doing.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Aug 25, 2016 -> 12:32 PM) This is a franchise that has turned over the entire roster in the last few years, and has made a ton of moves specifically in the last two years. The problem isn't worrying about the product on the field. The execution hasn't been there, but it hasn't been for a lack of effort. No this is a franchise that has refused to rebuild and have made numerous questionable off season moves cause they believed we were only a few players away from competing, the moves are enough to tease the fans to thing we are doing the right thing but in all honesty we are not, now we have a bad product on the field no minor league talent but we have a great new name of the ballpark.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Aug 25, 2016 -> 12:24 PM) Ok...all of you are beyond ridiculous. If this were 2005 and the White Sox were winning, no one would care. The reality is this gives money to keep the stadium nice, making it a more attractive place to watch the game, while also providing the Sox with some additional revenue opportunities (other cell deals + the fact that as part of this they inked a separate deal with Guaranteed Rate). And you know what, none of you have to call it anything other then Sox park or Comiskey. You can call it whatever you want. This deal has absolutely zero correlation with the White Sox current track record / on field performance and if anything, should give some slight positives in the sense that they should have some additional revenue that could actually go to the club payroll as a result of this. No fan is not going to go because of the stadium name, etc, and no player is going to play worse because there is a downward arrow on a sponsor's logo (and if they are creative they can tie it into some marketing, where Sox pitchers ERA's continue to trend lower..just like the rates you can get on your next mortgage from Guaranteed rate. I realize the Sox suck, but all of your a bunch of overreacting whiners who would whine about anything vs. focusing on whining about what matters (the product ON the field). Maybe the problem is instead of worrying about the product on the field ownership is more interested in changing the name of the field so they can have more options to make money without putting a good product on the field.

The only positive i can see in this is that the sox wont be going anywhere for a while. This season has been a joke though, and unfortunately keeps getting worse.

When i hear about numerous skills i always fear he is the "toolsy" player we like to look for.

really intrigued to see how the team plays when they put morneau in the dh spot. even better when jackson is back too. I mean really could justin do worse than avi is right now?

Maybe wishful thinking but hopefully its a turning point for the sox and shields. He has been really bad the last few games with us and the padres, maybe seeing his team bring it back might get him going.

I think this the the game we turn it around in, big game james is gonna start a nice streak for us.

Glad we were able to move him to get frazier
