OT: Other Sports 81

[southsideIrish]

Announcers blabbering on about no-hitters and shutouts moments before TB puts 10 on the board.

Pathetic organization.

Historic...epic...losing by scores beyond reason of fathomability ..White Sox just do not stink...they are beyond statistical measures for losing badly....Rancid.

Robert shine has worn out a while now.

If a team wants him the Sox should send him packing

The whole team's shine has worn at this point.

 

[SimpleJack]

The whole team's shine has worn at this point.

Yup. Even Cease hasn’t looked quite right.

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

True

Honestly Santos and Sheets are only guys who look like they give a damn and it's understandable

Santos is young guy looking to establish himself at ML level while Sheets is trying to play into a regular role

At this point Colas has shown he isn't ready, and I think Sheets should be everyday RF again even with his flaws

You know, I was told how great the White Sox were here and how it was all larussas fault...

Here's another instance where I was right all along.

 

[Mrfenn92]

Lol

 

[hawksfan50]

The losing streak for Sox ends...Amazing blow lead by Sox Lopez then the incredible 9th innong comeback. STILL ...doubt this changes much...do not expect Sox to now claw back into race woth their own big win streak...not gonna happen.

[Blackhawkswincup]

My expectation is they will flirt with .500 at some point in late June

The roster has too much talent to be this bad but not enough talent to be good

I don’t know how you guys can watch baseball. It is such a drag to me.

This is always a weird take coming from a sports person about another sport.

There is not an explanation that is good enough for you to make you understand. So what's the point of your post?

 

[No Fun Shogun]

I mean... because people like different things and there's no such thing as subjective tastes.

I'm not a fan of spicy food, IPAs (even still without tastebuds), country music, soccer, multiplayer videogames, or cringe-humor, but it's not like it's unfathomable to me that other people could like those things.

Baseball is fun to me, and not fun to others. Cool.

 

[Putt Pirate]

I get it. I’m guess my tastes have evolved from when I was younger. Or maybe having sun all the time makes me not care as much about sports in general since there is so much more to do. Just seeing what fans thought of the game was all.

 

[SimpleJack]

Look at how inconsistent and up and down all of the Sox talented young players have been from year to year since 2018.

Did anyone seriously think this inept organization was going to keep Cease on the right path and continue to further develop him towards reaching maximum potential???

Cease is going to be a wild card moving forward just like Kopech, Giolito, Robert, Eloy, etc…

These poor young men need to escape this cancerous organization if they ever hope to become legitimately great players in this league.

I don’t know how you guys can watch baseball. It is such a drag to me.

It’s an 1800s sport that happens in slow motion and can be incredibly boring. It’s definitely not my favorite. I still like it for other reasons but I totally understand why some hate on it.

 

[SimpleJack]

It’s unbelievable how collectively awful all the OF acquisitions Benentendi, Pollock, Eaton, Mazara, and everyone else in between have ended up being offensively. Like what a horrible job by the front office I mean wow. It’s so bad. It’s embarrassing. Talk about wasted $ and cheaping out/not being competent enough to fill a roster hole.

Reinsdorf is a f***ing prick. Liar too.

 

[Pez68]

Reinsdorf is a f***ing prick. Liar too.

Oh yeah. He's a world class piece of shit, and a bold-faced liar. That convention he spoke at has a WHOLE BUNCH of quotes that just cement this fact.

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Please trade Robert lazy ass at this point

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Absurd move

Someone is going to get a good coach

 

[HeisenBaez]

Reinsdorf is a f***ing prick. Liar too.

I don't know how he said that without laughing.

No one can touch Dollar Bill in terms of pure unadulterated disdain (Rocky is nearing that level for me) but imo Reinsdorf is approaching that level.

 

[Sarava]

Reinsdorf is a f***ing prick. Liar too.

The worst one was where he said finishing in 2nd, 3rd or 4th place doesnt mean you had a bad year.

The reality is - he's a billionaire who doesn't give a damn what any of us think and there's nothing any of us Sox fans can do about it. Our team is held hostage by this cheapskate. And baseball is structured as such, where even bonehead owners will make money. We're just out of luck until he eventually dies.

Rocky is a douche but he spends and after the town hall meeting fiasco he's been smart enough to be quiet and invisible.

It being a quarter century since the Kerry Wood 20 strikeout game makes me feel unreasonably old.
