I want a lot of things.

Who really cares at this point?

This is all a joke and not surprising. How long did it take to think of this?

So things have changed. Why do I think things haven't changed?

It only took 108 pages for this to happen.

It's been a weird few days. All the talk about moving and new stadiums and now this. Maybe getting pounded over the weekend was finally it.

My god, no. What's the point of firing Williams and Hahn, if you're going do this?

Never thought he would have done this, especially at the same time. It had to be done, and now so much more has to be done. Let's hope he hires an outsider. This is shocking.

We all know the major league sports is more business than sports. But right now, I don't care about talk about Nashville or a new stadium. The White Sox stink right now, and they are stinking to the heights of historic proportions. I'm not hearing anything about improving the product on the field. I am one that thinks this team stink for a long time. They don't deserve any kind of new stadium or sweetheart deal somewhere else. When JR's group bought the team in 1981, he said he had to have a new stadium to compete. 10 years later he got one. Attendance was great. But then there was 1994 and everything went to hell, including the team's performance on the field. Since 2005, the White Sox have won a grand total of three playoff games. Turn that around and we can talk about some dumb ass new stadium. Otherwise, sell the team to someone who can make money and win at the same time. That would be a novel idea, wouldn't it? Try it sometime, JR.

I feel this way, too. In addition, I wonder, after all this silence, that there is a "leaked" story about a new stadium or the possibility of selling the team. There has to be a reason that this story came out. The Sox FO should know that something like this would not get a good reception. Other than that, there has to be a reason, perverted as it may be. In six years, GRF will be close to being 40 years old. Maybe a time for a new stadium? But not under threats.

This time no JR threats should give him what he wants. If he wants to move the team out of GRF, he should have to move the team out of the city. He should do the honorable thing and sell. But we can't count on that. He likes to blame the fans. He can't blame the fans for the 2023 season.

If there is any serious evaluation and interview process, it should be done by someone outside the organization. Someone who can look at things with an objective eye. In addition, this should have been done a long, long time ago, like at the end of 2011.

For once, some clutch hitting. Nice to avoid a sweep, especially to a team like the Rockies.

My god, dramatic changes were needed 15 years ago. Will 100 losses convince them changes need to be made? Dramatic changes?

I don't think that will have any effect. JR's wife wanted him to sell, and that had no influence. Fans certainly won't have any influence. The most discouraging part is that public opinion, family concerns, and bad results on the field isn't changing anything. I don't think sinking attendance will change anything, either. We are stuck with things as they are.

Yes, paying to watch a very bad team just to tell Jerry to sell isn't a great idea. Fans have been shouting at him to sell for a long time, and, as we all can see, it has had no effect. I don't understand how JR can watch this team sink to this level. But he won't sell, and fans taunting him will only increase his stubbornness.

On the post-game show, they wanted to talk about some great Sox infielders of the past and then show some minor league highlights. Otherwords, they didn't want to talk about the present. Can't blame them.

I agree. At least they tried to have fun. They went on a small hot streak in the summer. At that time, the Reds were called the Big Red Machine. For a time, the Sox called themselves The Big White Machine. They had some good guys on that team. They just weren't any good.

If the White Sox want to build a new stadium, let them build and pay for it. They don't need a new stadium, they need a new team, a real one. Also, I wouldn't want JR to benefit from another stadium publicly financed.

I'm with South Side Hitmen. Leadership starts at the top. This team didn't just start being bad, it's been bad for the last 15 years. Yet, JR kept the same people in place and the losing just continued. Decisive action needs to be taken, but I don't see it happening. Looks like we're in for another rebuild. Good luck with those season ticket sales.

Won't miss Anderson. They're losing with him anyway. His one home run this year has been a real contribution. Only hope he is playing somewhere else next year. Or even this year.

So many fans are already at this point. The FO will not admit they are in another rebuild. Hahn carefully has not used that word. But the team is in another rebuild. Does anyone truly believe they will have an active offseason? I would be shocked if they did. Meanwhile, we don't know when the Sox will contend again even in that lousy division. I don't know what the mindset of the FO is, but I have never seen a team more out of touch. I hope JR will enjoy sitting in his owner's box watching a bad team play in front of an empty stadium.

I understand Sox fans enjoying it when the team beats the Cubs. But the beating the Cubs doesn't count any more than beating the Twins or anyone else. No matter what the Sox do today, they are still going to lose 90 games or more. Otherwise, I think this cross-town classic has lost his luster and they can keep their stupid cup. There is one real good thing about beating the Cubs especially at Wrigley: Cub fans will shut up for about 24 hours.

Hate losing to the Cubs, but other than that, these games mean nothing. The Sox season ended back in April, maybe even before that.

The Hawk hire was like so many others. Give it little thought and hand over power to some crony. Nothing has changed since then. Just ask Tony LaRussa.
