Update from Tom Skilling.....

In another quite awful season, a 4 game sweep of the Twinkies would be delightful

$89.99 seems a bit steep, but it does come with a Bryan Ramos bobblehead.....scratch that, it is actually a Bryan Hudson bobblehead so never mind.

Andrew Huberman strongly recommends 2 glasses of water first thing in the morning and immediate sunshine....followed by a solid 20 minutes of complaining. You won't live to 100 but you will be happier....well not happier, but you will feel like a good White Sox fan.

It probably isn't hard to write a macro that scrapes the live box score and populates fields in timed comments:

OMG! [current pitcher]'s in! Game over!! LMFAO!!
I can't wait for [most recent Sox defensive play maker] to be launched!!
Nothing will change until [current permutation of Jerry Reinsdorf] is no longer the owner!!

JoylessDeWitt: and then we're going to invite a bunch of people into Busch Stadium to blow it up, since the best way to honor our rich baseball history is with bombs.
Pujol_Junkie: It's going to be a sad day. STUNG THE SLANG OF A GALLOWS BIRD
raykingleaves: Hey boss is it okay if I leave early on that last day I don't want to get exploded kthnx
Mark2Nite: I can simply punch down the stadium if you want to save money on dynamite and give it to me, instead.
LittleMac: pow powwwww
JoylessDeWitt: That won't be necessary, Big Mac Attack. We've already taken care of the necessary arrangements.
JoylessDeWitt: After the party we're going to celebrate the joy that this team has brought to millions.
JoylessDeWitt: Then we're going to drive over to Chicago and blow up Wrigley Field.
LittleMac neeeeeeeoooooooooooow boooooooooom
BakersDozen: come again
raykingleaves: I'm on drive my car vurr far away.
JoylessDeWitt: Don't worry Dusty, this is the age of progression! We'll tear down Wrigley for you and you can build a new stadium that is supposed to look old on top of it!
BakersDozen I'm getting too old for this s%*#.
PerezDispenser: We're getting a new stadium?? raaaaadicaalllll!!!!!
BakersDozen: Neifi, no!!! Earmuffs, EARMUFFS!!!

Here's a ChatGPT reading of my recent posts, and defending Brooks Baldwin's defense in "my voice":

“Okay, let me break this down before folks start saying Baldwin was canoe-paddling in right field. Yeah, Minnesota punched one through early—Larnach and Keaschall carved us up, and sure, Wallner’s hit dribbled through Baldwin for that second run—but let’s not pretend he’s camping out in the beer garden. That early error? One hiccup in an otherwise gritty night.

Take that play in the fifth—Byron Buxton laces a leadoff triple and thinks he’s dancing home. Instead, our defense hits turbo: pitcher Gómez orchestrates a textbook fielder’s choice, and Buxton gets thrown out at the plate like he was trying to showboat. That’s not a fielder slacking—that’s socks-on-the-ground hustle from the entire rotation, Baldwin included. 

And hey, when your offense is sleeping through the night, you can’t afford repeated lazy plays. Baldwin wasn’t just plugging holes; he helped hold the line while Gómez and the bullpen kept the Twins ghosted for innings.

So yeah—two-out mess in the first? Fair. But then he settles in. Helps anchor the outfield. Keeps it close. And that’s the kind of under-the-radar grit that lets Taylor and the hot bats do their thing in the ninth. Props where they’re due.”
