considering baseball prospectus is within 5 games of their predictions 87% of the time over the past 5 years, I would say that is better than 'LUCK" in predicting the Sox to have 72 wins, as Reinsdorf might allude to. Of course under that theory the 2005 Sox would have got Lucky and we all know that is impossible. (Their is a Sabremetrics Equation they use)

Hey Sox fans, remember when Jerry liked using those stats to "QUIT"?

Remember being 3 games out at trading deadline and he had STATS, Inc. run a search on teams 3 games out at the trading deadline? and how they did?

STATS told him he did not have good chance of winning and thus you got your WHITE FLAG TRADE. I Guess the Stats are OK then.

I Know Jerry is a smart guy, actually he is a bonafide genius, but you can't keep tossing the stats out to work when you want them., and aonly when you want them.

bigfan..... It is not our fault your team can not win a World Series. Despite all your lashing outs. it wont happen. Accept it. Please stop trying to bring down Sox and their fans because your team's futility was further magnified by the Sox 2005 success. It is ok, really. Just be like every other Cub fan who remembers 98, 03, 89 and all the other years and accept your fate as a Cubs fan. Bringing down the White Sox will not replace that trophy

I wasn't happy with the White Flag Trade. I don't think it sent a good message despite my feelings at the time that the team wasn't that good, and probably wouldn't have gotten any closer than they were.
