Someone is going to get fired.

Cooper needs to go a long time ago.

The problem with firing Cooper, which to me would be the longshot of longshots, is Hassler takes over, and really very little change if any, with what they are doing.

No one will be fired.  But if they are the next yes-man in line will just be moved up the chain, so no real change either way.  The similarities between this team and the Bulls are striking, and there's one common denominator.  

No one will be fired, that's the way the White Sox role.

More than likely some will get PROMOTED. That's the way the White Sox roll.

It's one thing to lose... losing by the average score of 9-2 over the last week is a profound level of futility.

If this continues at all - someone is going to get axed.

I agree with you....but it will be a sacrificial lamb, not anyone that really needs to move along (Hahn, Williams, Cooper).  I'd guess Steverson.

Nobody is getting fired. Not publicly.

I'd be okay with cleaning house secretly too

I 100% understand the frustration. I feel it too. But I don’t see the satisfaction in someone getting fired because they’re the scapegoat for Hahn/Kenny being ineffective and Jerry being cheap.

Spelling is hrd

Maybe someone won't be fired after all...

 

Hopefully not a sign of things to come for the Sox, but I'm not holding my breath. 

I'd send down to the minors. or fire any coach(no not Ricky or Coop), or anyone in the clubhouse that is participating in this mess of a losing streak, bad clubhouse guys, and I dont care if they are the best player on the team. We need good chemistry.

We have concerns but some people are piling on. I would hire a lively mgr.

Firing someone would be an admission of being wrong, something that takes the White Sox making a colossal blunder to ever admit . I have no doubt JR, KW and RH will pop off 9 or 10 years from now to point out how correct they were if Machado isn't still a big time player.

I know a lot of posters are sick of the Machado talk, but what a blunder. Not only does he immediately increase your talent level, it's a boost to everyone else on the roster who now knows the White Sox truly believe in them. A large part of the game is mental, and cheaping out on a big time player IMO may have taken the wind out of several other players' sails.

Agree 100%, Dick. I know they have taken the wind out of this fan's sail!

Yeah you guys are probably right... I forgot how Big JR rolls.

 

However - I was just thinking about all the talk of "high expecations" out of renteria and hahn - that they may be forced to act.

That talk was just to convince white sox fans to buy extra early tickets.

Nobody gets fired and you can take that to the bank 

We already know this.  It’s a Reinsdorf owned team.  Most of the front office and coaching staff wouldn’t have jobs if it wasn’t for Jerry and most would be fired for poor performance at their jobs on any other team.

Christ. This board is downright unreadable. It's a shame how much it has devolved over the past few months. 

Nothing but constant and annoying b****ing about Rick Hahn and JR 24/7. Hahn, the same guy that most here were either content or ecstatic about the commitment to the rebuild of the farm system. Yet over 1 offseason he's gone from that to the worst most incompetent GM ever, outside of perhaps KW (Who I thought needed to definitely be fired years before he was "promoted").
