  1. Its sure been quiet about new stadiums for the White Sox and Bears.
  2. I don't know if a salary cap will ever be accomplished. Maybe something will be done about paying players with deferred money. I think the Dodgers have over $1 billion on the books in deferred payments.
  3. A temporary renewal might happen if something is being constructed but if its not being built in the South Loop, where else would it be built?
  4. Its going to be interesting to see how this plays out. The present ownership does not want to renew the lease at the present stadium. If there is new ownership maybe they might think differently about staying at the present stadium.
  5. Greg Maddux went into the HOF with no logo on his hat. I was hoping that Dick Allen would do the same thing.
  6. White Sox fans should remember that the South Loop Stadium location was offered to JR in the 1980s and he turned down the offer. He wanted to build a stadium in Addison where he just happened to own the land.
  7. It is certainly not a pleasant thing being a White Sox fan now. I try not taking it too seriously. The ownership is content with this losing situation and there's nothing White Sox fans can do about it.
  8. It seems to me this ownership is happy with the low payroll and the losing team. With the low payroll the White Sox are going to be very profitable for the ownership.
  9. Getz mentioned he seems to think the 2 young lefty pitchers will be here sooner rather than later which should make the team better. In the meantime whos's going to pitch in the bullpen who is any good? The team lacks hitting. Who's going to hit and drive in runs? This just looks to me like its going to be years before this thing ever gets turned around. Becoming the new version of the old St. Louis Browns doesn't appeal to most fans.
  10. I don't like the present White Sox becoming the new version of the St. Louis Browns. Its obvious that ownership is happy with the low payroll and the losing teams.
  11. I realize that Getz was not going to sign Santander or anybody else worth having. Still. I can't help but wonder, who is going to be the White Sox DH in 2025?
  12. He has run the team into the ground but is making nothing but money for the investors with this low team payroll.
  13. The 2024 White Sox could not hit nor could the bullpen get anybody out. Getz has done nothing to improve those 2 areas. Evidently not improving those areas are part of his master plan and i think its terrible. i wish i could see this nightmare turning around sometime soon but I can't see it happening.
  14. That is not counting the national TV money. The total is somewhat near $400 million. Also,some people have said the team hasn't been making money. If the team was losing money JR would sell the team in a heartbeat.
  15. 2025 will be one of the most profitable years for the White Sox. Low payroll= big profits for ownership. The team grosses about $400 million. The team lost 100 games in 2018 and was the 6th most profitable team in MLB. They should be in the top 5 most profitable teams in MLB in 2025.
