@JamesFox917 Waiting for WST to shift from “Thorpe sucks! He can’t even through 90” to “We are gonna lose so many more games now that Thorpe is gone for the season!”
@JamesFox917 The timeline factor is the most interesting thing. Why give up a chance to own a baseball team RIGHT NOW for a chance to own the Sox at some unknown time in the future? There HAS to be some parts to this we clearly don’t know.
@nbb77@JamesFox917 So this is basically a story that will have zero follow up and by summer it will be a distant memory. Much like the “Jerry open to sell to Dave Stewart” story from the fall that has been completely memory holed.
@JamesFox917@JRFegan It’s one of things where you guess better late than never. And while we all wished they did an actual GM search, Getz clearly has some way to pitch this to Jerry and he’s listening. Maybe it’s Jerry’s age or something else changed. Maybe Hahn/KW never thought to ask?
@dabearsblog So many classic moments (Mike Brown back to back pick six OT wins, Keith Traylor pick) mixed with classic Bears outlier playoff season staples. (Win 13 but get swept by GB, Top Defense w/ mid-QB play and great running game). Team got me back into football.
@jlazowski14 Sox could lose 101 games, be the worst team in baseball and STILL improve by 20 wins. The worst team in baseball doesn’t lose 120+ games every year. That’s why it’s so rare. Anyone who’s saying this season will be worse is just a doomer fan who gets off on their own negativity.
