Did you put together an ownership group at the AVN convention? That could make for some interesting changes for the team. |

Who cares!!! This asshole owns 1/2 of the United Center. COLLATERAL. The State of Illinois should not be in the Stadium business. The State should sell The Cell to Reinsdorf. NOW this guy would have a vested interest in the SUCCESS of the White Sox instead of lording over a group of incompetents. If Reinsdorf won't buy it, Good Riddance. Go to Vegas. The Tampa Rays will be a nice alternative to the Reinsdorf freak show at The Cell. If the State must own a Stadium, at least get a genuine lease agreement from the Rays. |

Maybe an ownership group has been in existance for years? and for about the 20th time, the rumor is what is happening and it is based on some reality, but the purpose of the rumor is to sign a new deal with the state. I don't think they will move there. |

They have the sweetheart deal of sweetheart deals. The state buys up unsold tickets. How could it get much better? How much more can Reinsdorf extract from Illinois? |

IF Reinsdorf was gutsy,he would move the Sox to Wrigley...Screw Tradition. Pay the Cubs some rent and draw what the Cubs draw. The Sox should at least play a weekday series there against the Royals (or some other weak draw). I bet they would fill the place up! |

It is really hard for SOME people here to understtand this concept. The fact there is a group that wants a new franchise in Vegas and has some White Sox ties, is where the connections come in. |

Anyone know where the MLB winter meetings were held in 2010 when this deal to vegas might have been floated for some approval? |
