Buh dum tiss!
You have a really poor grasp on.... anything sports related really, which is surprising to me considering how old you are.
For now on I'd recommend you just tap out of the baseball conversation. You don't know anything about the game and it really shows... but for the sake of being a standup guy I'll help you out here.
Take the following paragraphs as gospel, because anyone with a brain knows they are, in fact, gospel:
The Cubs have had one playoff game in the last two years, in spite of being smack dab in the middle of their contention window. Their payroll situation sucks and have to pay Bryant, Baez, Rizzo, and Contreras soon, assuming they don't unload any of those guys because of said payroll issues. They are also about to lose Lester and Quintana. Their farm system is mediocre and their long term outlook is not one that screams "World Series contender".
The White Sox on the other hand have one of the best young cores in baseball, possess a below league median payroll with [a lot] of room to add via free agency, still have a good farm system and are *just now* starting to open their window.
One or both teams might miss or make the playoffs. But anyone with a brain knows the White Sox are trending in the right direction while the Cubs are NOT.
I capitalized "not" as an ode to you, as you seem to think it better drives home a point in your posts.
Newsflash - it doesn't. It makes you look like a 10 year old. *inserts attendance joke even though attendance m
What will Reinsdorf be doing? Just counting his money and looking back at another losing season.Neither will the Ricketts, as they’ll be celebrating at Mar-A-Lago.

Which is quite literally exactly what Ricketts is doing. Holy hell are you obtuse
He's not obtuse. It's just really bad and easy to pick apart "My team is better" stuff.
While Theo is forced to break up the Cubbies because he somehow can’t afford to pay KB, Javy, Rizzo and Willy. I guess he’ll just have to charge more for his TV Network. Running up costs for the little man. Kind of sounds like the West parking lot and the Wilson Club, Willy.What will Reinsdorf be doing?

Yet, in another, much more real, way, it's not.This thread is very fun.
425 posts! Not even bitching about HJ, Nance, McCall or CCC draws this kind of response!Yet, in another, much more real, way, it's not.
it's about the only fun you Sox fans have had in close to 15 years. BTW how many of you hold Sox season tickets or even go to more then a couple of games. There are a lot of empty seats at Arrow Down Field!This thread is very fun.

Who gives a shit
I do. Everything he points out is a perk to me.
Dream on. And the seats will still be mostly empty, except when the Cubs fans fill them up for their games at Arrow-Down Field.
And how long do you think the Cubs have had control of Rizzo, Bryant, Baez, Contreras, Happ, Almora, Schwarber, Lester, Hendricks??? Hint, way before 2016.Well, Sox have extended Moncada now. Most of their young core is under control for the foreseeable future - just like the Cubs...oh wait....
With a poor b ball season this thread has taken over as my favorite in the off season.Soon let's start a MLB prediction thread, but I think we should do it on the rant forum where it's more appropriate.
Zip!With a poor b ball season this thread has taken over as my favorite in the off season.
Now if I could just see Willy’s beloved Cubbies on TV in Chicago. Wait, how much is my bill going up to pay KB or not pay KB?

PS -
Rizzo: FA after 2021
Bryant: FA after 2021
Baez: FA after after 2021
Schwarber FA after 2021
Lester: FA after 2021
Contreras: FA after 2022
Hendricks: FA after 2024
Rizzo is looking at a $150MM deal, Bryant a $250MM deal, Baez a $200MM deal, Schwarber a $100MM deal and Lester will be washed by the time his deal is up.
Come July 2021 the Cubs are going to be unloading some of these guys and looking to start from scratch with a rebuild again. No owner on earth can/would pay for all of the contracts those guys are going to be looking for
But the Cubs set the Cactus League attendance record today, so they should be happy since that's all they really care about anyway.
Moderators, can we move this to the baseball board , or maybe the Rant Board. Anywhere but on a NU Football Board. Maybe all of these losers can start a Purple Sox Board. BYE!But the Cubs set the Cactus League attendance record today, so they should be happy since that's all they really care about anyway.
I'll be here watching a wining Cubs team. You will still be stuck with a loser. Baseball Board!Hahaha take your ball and go home you big cry baby!!!
