Unless JR is going to say they are going to abandon this stupid rebuild, I am not interested in anything he has to say.

Hawk was a shill for JR and MLB. He often acted like a spokesman for Reinsdorf. I don't know how much honesty you can expect from him.

Getz isn't the only one who needs to go. The organization needs a complete overhaul, but that is not going to happen even with the 2024 embarrassment. The franchise is in the worst shape it has ever been. Playoffs? Even just .500? No one knows when either will happen. This is a complete farce. I don't know how JR sits in his owners' box and watches this, but he does. Skybox anyone?

Let me get this straight. The White Sox have two straight 100-loss seasons for the first time in franchise history. And the second one will probably be the worst in major league history. Yet after running his franchise into the ground, Jerry Reinsdorf is supposed to get a publicly funded stadium. Feeling a little entitled?

Yes, he has to be right about everything., It's petty. The scum statement even surprised Hawk. He only hurts himself when he does these spiteful things. And now the franchise is completely falling apart, and it will be years before the team is winning again, if then. And he can keep his stupid stadium until he has a team to put in it.

How about that new stadium? It faces the skyline. What a view.

I hope this stadium never gets built.

Winning is such a different thing. Forgot what it was like.

A logical person in charge would do one of two things. One, start making significant investments to show the baseball world he is serious about making changes. Two, sell the team to someone who is willing to spend upfront to build a winning and profitable franchise. We don't have a logical person in charge. He is in some kind of dream world.

Okay, so the team has little talent. So, let's trade Crochet, who has talent. That's the way to build a winner.

Even the 1989 Sox, a team that lost 92 and ended up last, had an 8-game winning streak. Nothing near that in 2024.

Hahn. Williams. Getz. All part of the same organization that has had this franchise in reverse for the past 15 years. Change is needed so badly, but it isn't happening. And it won't happen.

No, tell the team to go away.

The person who should be fired can't be fired.

This is obvious, but if all this team does this off season is cut salaries more, we will get another 120-loss season. There will be no reason for any fan to attend a game next year or for years after that.

The 1970 White Sox drew a little less than 500,000. If the Sox do what we think they are doing to do this off season, the 2025 Sox should draw less. This is supposed to be a major league franchise. It isn't even close to that. JR should be told by every Illinois politician there will be no new stadium unless he invests in his team. This is a travesty. Cue the fireworks!

I am glad I am not watching this. This is beyond a joke. First, 14 in a row. Then 21 in a row. Now 11 and counting. The season can't end soon enough.

The Marlins stat is telling. This was a long time coming. This organization has been on the down slide since winning the division in 2008. Look at the rosters during 1990s and early 2000s. Even when they were not going to the playoffs, they had some talented players on the team. For so long, they have had so few. It gives fans a helpless feeling because there is nothing we can do. This franchise is an absolute disgrace.

McKinney's hit was a bullet. One of the hardest hits I have ever seen. Roland Hemond did a great job as GM to improve that team. We need a topflight GM now.

44,250 attended the opener in 1971. The Sox won 3-2 with a run and Comiskey went nuts. There's nothing like hope. Would like to have hope now.

I can remember sitting in Old Comiskey watching the 1970 team lose 106. They weren't nowhere near this bad. At least owner John Allyn had one excuse. He didn't have a lot of money and he did what he could to keep the franchise from collapsing.

Yes, but there was a 99-loss season and a 100-loss season. JR just doesn't care.

Not sticking up for Getz, but the Sox went 12 years without winning a division under Williams/Hahn, and that didn't seem to bother JR.

All i know is that we can't have an offseason like the last one. This is not a competitive major league baseball team. Fixes don't happen in a year, but money needs to be spent. It's a shame there is no way someone within the White Sox corporation can unseat JR as CEO. He has turned this team into a national joke. But all he thinks about is a new stadium. Even if that should happen, it won't come to be until the end of the decade. What is to be done with the team until then? Set more losing records?

I haven't quit on the team. The team has quit on me. You are right about the next few years. At least.
