Ishbia taking control by 2029?

Featured Replies

The one note that causes me concern was the statement in the release that the Sox said there's no assurance any such transaction will occur.

  • It's not the Suns guy, it's his BROTHER!! And if he wanted to buy a team for cheap to move, he'd have bought the Twins. He's willing to wait 9 more years because he wants CHICAGO.  Get a fuc

I guess so....I just hope they are still selling Cuban Comet sandwiches in 2029 wherever they are playing.

I think that’s just nothing language to attempt to temper things down.

I'm not sure it's so amazing that Reinsdorf has the ability to hold on through 2034.  Yikes.  

This.

Weird timing with Mansueto.  

The 2029 thing is odd.  Why then? 

Because Jerry hates us and will drag this out as long as possible?

I have no idea, but until NBB is wrong, I will trust everything he says.

Dumb question, but who is "NBB"?

Hopefully the Ishbias can spend some payroll money while we are waiting for them to take over.

I'm sure he will have a little place in Canaryville to be closer to his new prized possession.

Doubt they will this offseason with the lockout looming after 2026.

I don't see them or most teams for that matter until after thevwork stoppage and the new CBA is agreed upon.

Btw, next city connect leak:

Canaryville is code for Nashville, actually.

The Nashville of Chicago!

Yep. I think we'll see an all time low fir FA money this off season. For most teams.

I'm guessing it will be more along the lines of what the release said, "capital investments" aka money for a new stadium (and I'm guessing it will be a lot more than the 200 million JR is supposedly willing to contribute...)

It's also pretty safe to say that this puts Michigan alum Chris Getz on the hottest of hot seats.

Yep a new stadium is way more important than trying to buy our way to 75 wins

4 years is best case scenario.  Could be 2034.  And it’s not like Reinsdorf is the type to give up control early.  As long as he’s alive I guess.  

This fits with the notion that Jerry just doesn't want to give up control.  I'm just glad there is a succession plan in place that doesn't involve the Reinsdorfs.  In 2034, he'll be 98 years old.

Not as long as JR is around

Be tough to get rid of coming off a 2028 World Series win.

He's going to pull his final trick on us by living until that 2033 date.

Wake me up in 4 years.

Even if by some miracle this happens, college rivalries run deep.
