there should be a sox fan opt out

Joe Buck is just White Noise to me. It’s like the game is being called by a CD of whale songs. - mechanical turk

i can see why they paid for the white sox stadium.

jerry threatened to fuck off with the franchise, so the city had to pay up or lose the team, but what leverage do the cubs have? it isn’t like they are ever going to leave.
also, where would they play whilst wrigley was being renovated? i hope jerry charges them up the ass if they want to use comiskey.

they also have plenty of their own money

notwithstanding the Soriano and Milton Bradley contracts…

I'm all for giving public money to renovate Wrigley...

If the public gets an equity stake in the facility’s profits. I’m thinking…..

HALF

No wonder your state is so fucking broke.

Funding losing enterprises is not smart business.

I love seasons too. That's why I live in a place that skips the shitty ones.

Your exclusion is false.

Well, until a couple of years ago. Lots of foreigners coming here. Lots.

PS And you guys are jealous of our AAA credit rating.

I love my home state, but Jesus, get a clue fiscally, will you?

THIS is the riposte that garners green?

You guys are sad. I’d rather have the green (money) than go green.

Envy is green, too. ;)

English, German, and Brazilian.

But someone needs to drive the cabs and make the beds at the hotels, so the islanders can come, too.
