I'll always root for Buehrle. Other than that I don't give a shit.

Why in the Hell should anybody be pissed at Ozzie?
The idiot, Kenny Williams is still here with his lips on Reinsdorf's ass.

Come on now, Bob. Guillen was missing in action the entire year last season. And now all kinds of stories are coming out. Like how the Sox didn't really have spring training under Ozzie. And hey, that's great when you win a World Series, let's play golf! But when you're having trouble winning games the first two months of the season, maybe you should think about actually putting in some work in Arizona.

Your feelings about Kenny are vaild. But the Guillens are goofs. It seems like Ventura has already returned an air of professionalism to the organization. Even Guillen's PR agent Cowley won't say a bad word about Ventura. I'm guessing this team is going to be better than people think.

Sitting here in stunned silence upon noticing the honor that has been bestowed upon me. I have made it onto Joe Orr's signature.

Now I just have to figure out if he means it as a compliment or if he's making fun of me. 8)

We just want Kenny, Hawk and Farmer to disappear. Florida does not matter.

Which underlies my consistent point that Reinsdorf has never connected with the fanbase in 30 years.
This entire operation is dysfunctional. It starts at the top where the boss loves to befriend the employees.

Have yet to split the tickets....I am so infuriated at this Reinsdorfian Fraternity House that I would rather spend the Opener at Cork and Kerry!!!

You think he could get up to .250 if they let him hit off a tee in the games?

As long as Kenny Williams' ass was used as the tee.

I'll root for them when Buehrle pitches, root against them when the Big Dumbass pitches and the other 3 days I'll enjoy watching the circus from far far away.

I continue to hear Sox fans defend "Jerry and Kenny" by noting Ozzie checked out last season and while I do not disagree with that, this is the way Reinsdorf runs an organization. He keeps people hanging by a thread and then there is shock that a guy does not give his best when he feels he is just hung out to dry. It's a fact of life, you treat someone wrong and expect them to respond with an excellent job??????

Sorry, I just don't agree with the management style. It does create the loyalty that some blab about, but at the same time it destroys some people lives when he drops them without any notice or just lets the contract run out without talking to them.

Some here complain all the time about short notice given to them and when they have to work? Imagine your contract coming up in 4 months and nobody has said anything to you, so you finally go and ask and they still dont give you an answer.

And if you think I am wrong, see Thibbs contract. They have not picked up his option for next year and now creating some angst with the head coach, but this is Jerry's game, he loves playing this card.

Jerry knows he can just pick up the option and they have him for 2013, but some guys dont like shit....and many dont like, especially a coach of the year 2011 and best record for the past 2 years in the NBA with the best defense.

Remember Scott Skiles fighting about how this was handled? That finished well.

Reinsdorf fired Jim Durham because he had an AGENT.
Reinsdorf did not like Skiles for the same reason.
You PLEDGE into the Reinsdorf Fraternity and AGENTS are not allowed if he considers you MANAGEMENT.
Announcers and Coaches are MANAGEMENT in his fratboy world.

The concept of sustainability or winning has meant nothing to Reinsdorf's operation of the White Sox.
Playing camp counselor to the Guillen-Williams nonsense long after it should have been ended obviously floats his boat.
