Nah, Tray is hosting

Do you think they will televise his hate speech about “the constant drone of sarcastic trolls, Cubs fans, and know-it-alls hating on the Sox, or trying their best to depress true Sox fans, their friends and even their own children from attending White Sox games or enjoying the players and the games”?

Sign at the door “all cubs fans can just go north with their buddies”

Having like 3 guys from the 05 team is laughable. The comeback of Soxfest + the 20 year anniversary of the World Series year should have been epic.

I agree with that. A no-brainer would've been to just celebrate 05 as the main focus. Has there been any schedule of events released? Or is it just gonna be a mess? I feel i know the answer.

Disregard I see it now. Not sure how a random band playing is relevant to Sox fans but alright.

Still seems pretty epic.

Just not sure what noun to append to "epic." An epic trainwreck? Embarrassment? Fall from grace?

All fans' money is green and spends for JR equally the same...unless of course it's electronic/digital.

 

Should have invited "The Panther"/Sosa and doubled attendance as well as interest.

Or someone like Carlton Fisk or Jack McDowell or AJ.

Heck everyone from Dick Allen's family would have been a better touch.

I read where the Sox person in charge of this (not Brooks) was quoted as saying there will be events through out the year celebrating the 05 championship and team. perhaps that is why only three members of that club are at the event this week?

Trying to spread out the impact on Gameday Revenue without having a legit team to promote...we will see how that turns out.

Colson Montgomery Quero and Teel debutss is about all this season will offer.

Seems to have made an impression on you.

There were only five from the 05 team who came to SoxFest for the 10th anniversary. Ozzie wasn't even in the country.

My family wants nothing to do with the new Soxfest.

Never seen such a quiet SoxTalk before a SoxFest in like forever...unless they were going to allow that Chicago radio call-in guy who eviscerated the Sox to have a go at Getz.

Jerry would love it.  Anything to deflect the blame away from the true root cause.  Him.

So, you're one of Reinsdorf's zombie slaves? Weird. Most people can just take responsibility for their own actions.

I doubt it. AJ wasn't even invited. You can tell like in classic Sox fashion they dropped the ball again, or put forth minimal effort on this event. It's Soxfest in name-only.

Pretty hard to celebrate 2005 without acknowledging AJ's pivotal role.  Somehow JR will find a way to pretend only Konerko and maybe Buehrle existed.

Kind of like not embracing Dick Allen or Frank Thomas when they played for your team but weren't treated well by the front office, KW in particular with the diminished skills clause BS.

Jerry is going to hold a special celebration  for White Sox scout, Jerry Krause. Accepting the award will be his widow Thelma Krause. Above her head will be a "Boo" audience cue card and Jerry will be providing tomatoes to any fans who want to lob them at her.

Absolutely ruthless.
