The press conference thread

Right. And then allowed no follow up. Basically the stadium is completely safe even though he thinks bullets are falling from the sky.

Yep, no one could get a gun past the security team. Oh, except some fatass hiding a glock in her fupa.

I felt like Mitch McConnell there.

- Jerry Reinsdorf, 8/31/23.

I didn't watch the press conference. What in the hell does this mean?

they don't even have a media relations person.  Why was Benetti running the press conference.

That was absolutely brutal. He has all the personality of a wet paper bag. I should have been taking shots everytime he said "sit down with" and "culture." They're going to lose 120 next year.

He had his second public brain freeze moment where an assistant had to rescue him from a media interview...just this week.

About whether he would be running for Senate again in 2024 or 26 or whenever his term's up again.

Weak questions and non answers.  Getz's generalities were annoying as hell.  

Heaven help white sox fans.

definitely feels like the reason they all think they failed is they weren't nice enough to each other in the board room.

Its NOT good he felt like McConnell. That's Jerry saying he has no idea what he's doing.

Terrible job by Getz. First, he read a generic statement.  Second, his tie is crooked.  No substance to any answer.  

If Getz wants to change the culture of the franchise the first move has to be is firing Grifiol, Katz and the rest of the coaching staff and bring in a new manager who names his own coaches.

That was an embarrassment and that needs to be the top story.  What a fucking joke of an organization.

Getz had zero confidence in anything he said.

He and Pedro are both losers.

Boyer Reifert or Merkin not running things a bit shocking...a going away "gift" to Benetti who's arguably much more likeable and at least identifiable compared to those three to the general public of Sox fans.

Jerry- "I want to win." 

Media-"Will you spend money?"

Jerry-"Lol no" 

 

Caught up a little - I would be EMBARRASSED to talk to clients or my company's board like Getz spoke to reporters. No preparation. You need to strategize on what people will likely ask you and be ready for that. It's not like any of these questions were out of left field so far - this is stuff that's been all over the internet.

Getz is going to get sued by the University of Michigan for devaluing a degree from Ann Arbor...did they have Nicky Getz there to pose with him ala Ivanka?

At this point I think Ashlyn Burger could/would do a better job running the White Sox.

The local press is useless.....there wasn't one question about Ohtani.

They need little help devaluing their degree programs.

Would there be any other organization in baseball that would retain their coaching staff after a 100 loss season in a supposed contention season?

Give the guy a break....he apparently had to wear alot of hats.

Maybe the Royals?  They at least have their fans distracted temporarily with the new park possibilities and attached entertainment district plan. 

 

If only they could have announced the $5.2 million savings from Clevinger deal are going directly into the revamped analytics department.  Alas no takers on that guy probably.  PR hit too distracting to a playoff contending clubhouse.

Sounds like Jerry et al genuinely believe this season was an outlier.
