Rick Hahn

the irony is the eloy / cease trade which they thought they fleeced Theo was ultimately their downfall.

Theo was playing chess while Hahn/Kenny were playing Checkers.

Yeah Epstein totes won that trade

I don't think he won the trade but he fooled the White Sox into thinking they had a HOF.

In return for the corpse of jose quintana

Isn't it ultimately Jerry and Kenny? As much as I want to blame Hahn, I always felt he was still a puppet to Kenny.

Schueler and Williams was the best stretch of White Sox baseball in generations. They were well over .500. Hahn lost 900 games and was more than 150 games under .500.

I think that you can sum it all up with Tony LaRussa. If you would ask AI to bring in all of the stupid things that the White Sox have done in the last 6 years and come up with one great example of awful baseball decision making it just might regurgitate LaRussa.

Hawk A Roo, I've got some bad news for ya.............

I saw the "news". Doesn't change a fucking thing. As long as Reinny owns this team, he will continue to run the team like the cheap miser that he is. Bringing the drunk sot back and hiring a weak person like Getz to be your GM is just about all Reinny is all about. In his mind Getz/Larussa 100% replaces Williams/Hahn. Two dopes replacing two other dopes.

Anyone who expected some positive reorganization of the White Sox is delusional.

Yep, Jerry dying or selling is the only chance for actual change. Which means he won't sell, and probably has some sort of evil billionaire cryo-chamber that will keep him alive until he's 120.

... and that team was probably one of the most dominant playoff teams I've seen.

With their 11–1 record, the [2005] White Sox tied the 1999 New York Yankees for the best record in a single postseason in the wild card era (since 1995).

After Williams moved up from GM, do you really feel like his presence has had a positive impact in the last decade or whatever he's been in that position? I can't disagree with his years leading up to 2005-2006. The way he built the 2005 team was successful and that team was probably one of the most dominant playoff teams I've seen.

How soon we forget the Machado debacle and embarrassment

Paxson was such a great GM that his teams made the conference finals once, and the NBA finals never.

The faces of the rebuild are Jerry #1, with Kenny and Hahn interchangeable at #2 and #3.

Context is important. Paxson blew the Tyrus Thomas pick, but it led to Rose.

lol what?
