In 2024 and beyond who really cares if the team you root for up and moves unless you’re a season ticket holder. You can stream, still use satellite and cable, you can watch them more than you ever could have in the past.

10 in a row!!!

I don’t know what this even means but it’s just hilarious to watch anyway

Of course 1994 had the season cancelled when the White Sox were poised to reach the World Series. The person spearheading the shutdown was Reinsdorf. He doesn’t get credit for anything post 1994.

I hope they move and the city is indifferent. That’s the hope I cling to at this point.

There’s no real evidence to suggest Reinsdorf wants to win baseball games.

I’m embarrassed for the guy (Grifol) thinking anyone is taking him seriously. The fans haven’t for over a year, the media doesn’t and now the players are openly flipping him off. Does he think he is fooling people or is this sincere stupidity?

Not fair to harp on the losses??? You lost four in a row at home. You’re on pace to lose 120 games. What would be fair to harp on? Holy crap!!! What a moron.

This is a great article. The writer can’t figure out who it is writing about.

The first manager I knew was Don Kessinger. Since then it is Bevington and Grifol at the bottom. I’m not sure who is worse.

I’m glad I didn’t take the same approach in my short and pretty unsuccessful boxing career.

This is correct. In all likelihood Baltimore gets the next out and that’s it. The umpires blew the call but did not steal a win from the Sox. I wish Grifol would have played under protest so they could have wrapped it up with one at bat the following day.

Don’t know if this has been covered but why didn’t he play under protest at that point?

The owner of the largest contract in team history?

It was also a treat every time he would accuse those skeptical of Sammy Sosa’s newfound power of being hopeless and bitter.

I remember a fun message board called JayTheJoke.com. My favorite Mariottism was when he wrote that Scott Skiles owed Shaq a debt of gratitude for his single game assist record. I wrote Mariotti and told him I was impressed with his sources, because Shaq was a sophomore at LSU at the time - so Mariotti must have had insider knowledge of Shaq giving Skiles a pep talk.

I stopped listening a long time ago but it was hilarious when Ronjey hosted the postgame and the drunks would call in.

Could have lost that game. Six of their seven wins have been by two or less.

There was no bigger Sox fan than my mother. She probably attended 5-10 games her entire life. So you have more disposable income and more time on your hands than others. You must be proud of yourself.

The Sox have won five of their six wins by two or less, one in extra innings. Their Pythagorean W-L is 7-24. They aren’t losing a lot of tough games. They are at the bottom of both leagues in run differential. What is this post? Root for them if you want but don’t tell people - who suffered through a rebuild, expected to have a championship window and get one playoff appearance - not to air their complaints.

I’m so out of the loop … I had to look him up. Thought he might be a player. What are the TV ratings this year? They have to be down from last year, no?

I love that picture

He played 59 games before arriving in Chicago at age 35. He maxed out at 108 after. It was a miracle he was relatively healthy while he was in Chicago.

Seaver wasn’t really washed up when they signed him. He was a couple years removed from a Cy Young and was pretty productive with the Sox. Thome was productive but I think that was by accident. The rest were typical waste of time.

It goes back to at least the 80s. They signed George Foster, Steve Carlton, Charlie Hough, Jose Canseco in the 90s.
