Looks pretty good for 87

He could not have been more patronizing.

Easily one of the funniest press conferences by any chicago team, ever.

Jason Benetti ditched the hairpiece for the tuft of hair combed forward look.

Closer inspection looks like it still could be a hairpiece but a bad one on Jason Benetti.

He and Bruce clearly worked it out beforehand where Bruce would head off questions on the shooting.

Jerry: I don't see any way the shots came from inside the park. Ok, I'll take questions about the shooting before I talk about Chris Getz.

Bruce, immediately: I'd like to talk about Chris Getz...

Chris will have absolute autonomy over everything unless he wants to actually rebuild, in which case he is not allowed to do that.

I don't listen to Levine but I came across him on the Score last week as I punched through, and he was basically saying, look Sox fans I understand you're upset but let's wait and see what happens...Is he a shill for Reinsdorf?

The weirdest thing about Jerry is his willingness to promote people who aren't good at their job. I.e. Paxson and Kenny

I'd imagine some candidates in demand would pass on this job.

Yes but a job with nowhere to go but up might appeal to many.

Anybody who’d pass on 1 of 30 available jobs is probably a coward with little self confidence.

If you are hoping to get the number 2 guy in someone else's organization. Space to do one's job is of paramount importance. It has been in the industry for a long time that it's a relatively closed shop. The major opaqueness of their process is going to be a major impediment for them to recruit openly the best and brightest amongst the sport. (He mentioned some top candidates). I don't see them leaving really good situations where they are the GM's of those clubs. They're the number 2 people in the front office but they're the GM's there. I don't see them leaving those positions to become the new president of baseball operations in Chicago because I'm just not convinced the situation there is better. Overall the decision making power... how many resources do you have?

It was delusional to say the least.

He said there was a clubhouse issue, that they resolved.... really? Why is Jackie still on the team?

Getz didn't produce any prospects.....but he is teaching fundamentals....ok....

He said, they don't have to do a rebuild, they already have a foundation.... Who are these players?

It is all fucking ridiculous.

W & S lambasted Jerry and Getz, then had an extremely disgusted Sox caller on with Getz on hold right before he came on the air. The flagship radio station has turned on Getz on day 1.

My impression today was that Getz seems ok. I'd give him a chance.

It's the eternal White Sox hopefulness in me.

Nice to see that the White Sox are the first team officially out on Ohtani.

It's my worst day as a White Sox fan. Having that egotistical old goat telling everyone that he knows everyone and everything about baseball and how Getz is a year ahead of everyone else is so wrong it defies all truth and reason. He's as bad as Joe Biden and I could care less if the asshole moves the team or just folds it up. Sox season ticket holders should quit. Go find some high school or college teams to watch. Fuck that old man.

There is something about seeing Jerry Reinsdorf that makes me feel young. That son of a bitch looks exactly the same as I remember him as a kid. He doesn't age. I guess part of it is he looked old when he was young. Or maybe he drinks kids blood like Hilary Clinton.

He looked like death warmed over. Where does he buy his shirts, Goodwill? He really does want to take his fucking money with him doesn't he? The three people who talked before Opie began, looked like a tryout for stunt men for three vaudeville clowns?? :eye:

"These kids can't play, field or run the bases, but... they put the FUN in fundamentals!"
