If the Sox get Manny, people are going to be dreaming of something very amazing, but not very likely. We’ll be playing with house money at that point. It’ll be a crazy thread, but much less stressful.

I predict that a "Manny signing elsewhere" thread will be the genesis for multiple prison sentences.

Just wait until Passan tweets out "The White Sox and Machado has agreed in principle to an 8 year deal" and then Nightengale fires back with "No deal has been reached yet". We will all lose our shit.

Why do you see it as a bad thing that Heyman is also confirming the 7 year thing? If no one is beating that offer then who cares? If they do top it then it sounds like the Sox are prepared to up their offer.
January 14, 20197 yr Imagine in 200 years when our distant relatives find the relics of this thread. It will be studied for years as the fall of mankind's ability to reason.

January 14, 20197 yr this is whole process remdids me of bears and roquan-smith but in differnt siuation

January 14, 20197 yr Manny may sign with the Sox.. or he may not. That's some hard hitting stuff there.

January 14, 20197 yr The amount of pages in this thread is the amount of money Machado will sign for. Keep driving the price up, Soxtalk.

January 15, 20197 yr Chiefs go to their first AFC title game in KCs home history the same time White Sox getting Machado. Told y’all it’s happening. Stars aligning for a great year

If it fails, Mr. Reinsdorf doesn't have decades. This will be attached to him for the remainder of his ownership. It is a stigma that will be with the Sox until a new owner comes in.

January 15, 20197 yr If the Sox are unable to sign one of Machado/Harper, does soxtalk have enough bandwidth available to handle the increased load of ranting posts?

Maybe, as they polish their big trophy they made for themselves labeled “hardest tryers”, they will think “was it worth it? Could we have used the money we spent on our try hard trophy to actually sign the player? No. It is the fans who are wrong”
