Is Grandstand still around? That's where I would start.

Not sure - next time I'm in town not a bad idea to check around and see what I can find.

The last few weeks have been painful for all of us. No where to run to, nowhere to hide. Just keep taking it on the chin...and a left, and a right, and another left.....staggering and just waiting for the final blow to land.

I feel like glass joe after these last 2 games

Spotting them 3 free runs starting a scrub as if this game was pre All Star break, unfathomable.

Honestly, this entire second half of garbage baseball is really on Venable, Getz, the coaching staff, and front office. They killed their good pitchers because their starters only throw 60-70 fucking pitches. The pitchers they brought in were fucking useless, awful, and/or hurt. Their coaching staff has shown no ability to help hitters adjust or gameplan. Every hitter has regressed. The organization just sucks.

That Venable comment about Mune says it all. "Moving him won't fix his swing."

Well what the f*** are any of you coaches here for if it's not helping your hitters fix their swing???

It really is amazing this team still leads the AL in runs scored comfortably.

They 100% did customs back in the day. Granted it's probably been a decade since I have been over there so YMMV.

Cleveland took their walks

Still have the easiest schedule left. Home cooking is much needed.

Trading Places, Ghostbusters, Airplane, Blue Brothers, the original Vacation movie... sorry for the Caulfielding...

Yep, I missed some obvious ones. Haha.

Gonna be a somber flight back to Chicago. Maybe being in 2nd place for the first time in a while will finally give these guys a sense of urgency. Tomorrow night they bring back the Southside uniforms - I say if they win keep wearing em

Hold on to those jerseys because once the Sox are moved to the RR yard, you won't see them again.

And then the Meidroth mistake early today...the Murphy opener mistake.

Pitching to Adell with a lefty.

Pitching to Ramirez with a lefty.

Walking catchers.

A common denominator is Venable poor managing of the pitching. If he brings in Schultz today, instead of the overworked Newcomb we probably win this game. And he doesn’t start Murphy yesterday,we would have won that game.

Every game we've lost they've walked a TON.

I so badly want them to move to the new location

We really, really needed to get that last out yesterday.

It's still basically a jump ball but I am not super confident at this point.

Cleveland took advantage of our mistakes. If it wasn't for the Meidroth error in the 2nd inning and Smith walking hitters they would not have scored. They don't scare me. I still think the White Sox will pass them and finish in first place.

Its actually appropriate now that tomorrow is Tim Anderson day.

The RR yard on the Southside of Chicago?

Anything outside of a 2 block radius of 35th and Shields is not considered the south side.

The entire AL Central is garbage.

So is the West and the only reason we are contention for the postseason.

I'm ready to loose the wildcard by the end of the weekend

2012 all over again... Wonder if they gotta wait another 7 years to make the playoffs. Not sure what Getz saw in Doyle. Dude fucking sucks

Too lazy to look it up, what’s the season record vs Detroit

From the Sun-Times, talking about Muni:

‘‘It’s not like moving him in the lineup is going to magically fix his swing,’’ Venable said. ‘‘As you look at how we’re compiling our lineups and want to give yourself the best chance, he’s still a part of that.’’

I want what will is smoking
