What Will it Take for JR to Lose Interest?

Featured Replies

He could walk away easily and play with his real estate, his family, do almost anything. Yet, he stays around.

People getting shot? Stays 

Horrible team? Stays

Firing his old friends? Stays

TLR "health problems"? Stays

Billboards and signs telling him to sell? Stays.

No championship possibility for years? Stays

How horrible is the rest of his life to keep doing this? 

I wonder if 2005 never happened if he would have been gone a decade ago. 

However MLB got Angel to retire, could they do the same for JR? It's for the good of the game. 

Cash flow dries up.

 

What do I win?

His real estate investments will keep him comfortable.

I wonder if he even knows how despised he is by White Sox fans.

Imagine being that devoted to something you are so clearly bad at.

I was thinking that maybe it has already set in, we’ve seen some bizarre moves by him with bringing TLR back and the hiring of a failed Getz. Who else would have done that?

Then there are all the fans who don't even know who he is.

He knows and thinks the Sox fans are idiots 

Oh, he’s lost interest. He just won’t sell while he’s still alive.

If not, just plain old age. I don't think he has a clue anymore. But he's running the show.

i know a lot of broke ass people and they wouldn't go to a white sox game with a 25 dollar gift card and a ride

Yep. It's impossible to make money owning an MLB team, but JR can't sell because the Capital Gains tax will be just too much. LMAO.

Didn't he lose interest a long time ago?

He’s not that despised in Nashville. I checked with my buddy who lives there. Be careful what you wish for. 

Personally my level of dislike hasn’t got to that level yet. Just my opinion.

Nashville should be careful what they wish for. 44 seasons, now under .500. He'll have an even smaller budget in Nashville, but will get a park for free.

This season’s crowds could fit in Thillens Stadium if anyone goes back that far.

I played Little League Baseball there in 1957 and 1958.

In 2024 and beyond who really cares if the team you root for up and moves unless you’re a season ticket holder.  You can stream, still use satellite and cable, you can watch them more than you ever could have in the past.

Nah, I root for the CHICAGO White Sox. Not the Nashville Hot Chicken. They change the city it's over. I'll just watch Mariners games I guess.
