Although I'd prefer someone like Chernoff but doubt he'd leave for the Sox. Chernoff would be a great hire, but no way they can land him before the end of the season. Has to be a true free agent candidate.

Very interested parties at that time were George Lucas and his wife. Also heard Shad Khan and Tony Khan from Jacksonville Jags had interest. Didn't think too much of it at the time, but today is interesting. Chicago native Mellody Hobson seems the one driving that interest much more than George...

It’s not earth shaking performance, but it’s a helluva lot better than what we’ve been getting. That org has some clear major restrictions on it that wouldn’t be present here, a combination of gamblers moves and good pitching development would work decently well here and probably leave a regularly competitive team.
August 23, 20232 yr Dayton Moore at least would rule out of the reason we suck is because the players have been jacking off too much. Im skeptical, but only he has the guts to end that and see.

Ozzie just teased during the game that he's going to have a lot to say during the post-game, so stay tuned! Can we stop all the JR selling the team nonsense? There is absolutely no reason for his family to sell the team before he passes on for tax reasons, the kids (and the fans) are going to have to wait ...
August 23, 20232 yr 2 hours ago, Dick Allen said: I would be more stunned if Getz gets the job than I am with the moves today. You don’t clean house only to hire in house. Especially with a guy that has been questionable in his job at best. Ultimately JR made this decision , but someone convinced him this was the move to make. I wonder who it was. Other investors? Hawk? LaRussa? His son? Steve Stone? It was someone. “People, his friends… have tried to tell him what has been going on, “Hawk” Harrelson, the late Ed Farmer… God rest his soul, Darrin Jackson, Scott Reifert (Author’s Note: Scott is the Senior Vice-President for Communications) , Bob Grim and others but it’s just not registering for some reason.”

So I’m not going to worry about any of these so and so is safe. With that said - this is White Sox so I have about 5 percent hesitation that they do go to Getz. With that said - if it was Getz I think they would have kept Kenny and punted HAhn and than announced some transition plan for Kenny. I expect outside hire - whether they are good, heck if I know, but shock me Jerry and write a blank check to Epstein.

A lot of that stuff has come out to be true. Like the fractured clubhouse
August 23, 20232 yr 55 minutes ago, Tony said: Logic is NEVER something that should be associated with the White Sox, BUT....if Jerry came to the decision Rick and Kenny were not right for this team, why would anyone associated with Rick and Kenny be? This - if he thought one of them was ready - I think Jerry would have only punted HAhn, not both.
August 23, 20232 yr 50 minutes ago, DirtySox said: Maybe Jerry has learned something - don’t get fans excited, instead manage down expectations with tweets and leaks like this, so when you actually make a legit move everyone will be pumped up vs disappointed.

August 23, 20232 yr If anyone hasn’t listened to the new White Sox Talk Podcast with Garfein…omg this is podcast gold. McGuffy went in on KW….
August 23, 20232 yr Nightingale conveniently left this out when posting Kenny’s statement. Just hilarious
