Bridgeport is a cool, old Chicago neighborhood. If you don't like it, you don't really like Chicago. Maybe you should try the China Club

the truth is, comiskey II is a nice park in a great location. It is accessible by multiple forms of public transportation. It is directly adjacent to multiple expressways. It is on the edge of a nice residential neighborhood. It has its flaws but convenience isn't one of them

Hey so umm...if Hahn and KW were this close to getting fired for incompetence, why were they allowed to partially deconstruct this Sox team and sell it for parts?

You don't like the Jake Burger for Jake Eder trade?

Which Getz is going to be considered, Chris or Bernie?

Should bring in a consultant. Ernie Accorsi is available.

There really isn't a bad seat in the lower deck. Also, while ambiance is nice, it wears off after about twenty minutes. At that point, I would rather have a place that's comfortable and convenient.

Who's going to be as good, near as good, or better than Kenny Williams...a dear friend?

I'm kinda thinking the Jake Burger trade got him fired. I'm kinda thinking it cemented the public perception that him and Hahn weren't on the same page.

and give away another stupid bobblehead.

I don't really think much of Jake Burger and it was probably a good trade for the Sox to be able to get a guy with an arm like that who was already coming off surgery. We'll see.

But there's more to running a team than just trying to win games some time in the future. You have a terrible and unlikeable team and you trade the one guy that makes fans happy. At the very least it underlines just how tone deaf this franchise is. I don't think that's gonna change just because they fired Kenny and Hahn.

Baseball is entertainment. It isn't life and death. Sure, I want the Sox to win. But it's a little more complicated than that. Like letting Buehrle go and giving "Losing Pitcher" John Danks more money than it would have taken to keep Buehrle. I'm not gonna argue that that wasn't the right baseball move at the time. It turned out not to be, but it seemed that it was at the time. Regardless, Buehrle was "Our Guy." The lead dog in a World Series rotation. That means something. It means something to the fans.

But Jerry doesn't ever seem to care about the fans. His answer is to raise beer prices and give away another stupid bobblehead.

Vaughn and Burger are both first round picks, yet Vaughn seems to be an untouchable piece despite not having one remarkable feature to his game.

They were both first round picks, but Vaughn was considered to have the higher ceiling. I remember phrases getting tossed around like "best hitter in the draft." I think they're still crossing their fingers and hoping he hits that ceiling. However, at some point (and I think that point is quickly approaching) you have to lower that ceiling to reflect reality.
