IlliniBob72 Posted September 23, 2003 Share Posted September 23, 2003 Damn. I hoped it was a request to pass his resume' around youth baseball leagues, but I guess this is for the best. Wouldn't want him tainting America's youth with uninspired baseball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CubKilla Posted September 23, 2003 Share Posted September 23, 2003 Jesus Christ. How in the hell can the White Sox Organization send some s*** like that to Season Ticket Holders? Talk about a slap in the face. You should have sent an Elia-esque reply back to the White Sox Organization. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soxplosion Posted September 23, 2003 Share Posted September 23, 2003 Putting my hatred for him as a manager aside, just look at the move. Was it really that intelligent, just a brilliant move? Replacing a rookie with an even fresher rookie? f*** no, it was luck. And did it change the outcome of the game? No. Screw that. And what the hell is the fun in seeing the Yanks sweep some weak NL opponent? What a joke... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
