I think Paulie is going to do standup one night and some juggling for Sox nation

"That is the best juggling act I have ever seen!"


But will they have his kid on hand for his last home run and hold a retirement ceremony in the middle of the game when he crosses home plate? That's the real question!

I am all for honoring the guy in a final home game, critical element of winning, great leader, seems to be a great guy, go over the top in the final home game, have Jerry come out and give Paulie back the ball he gave him, have his kids and wife there.

But come on, a month long , every single night!!!

I would even say that it takes away from the one night you really do want to honor guy. Lets say it was FRIDAY night and you now want to have PAULIE night, nobody will really know because you spread it out over the whole month and now his night will have 8,000 people there.

it's probably more a reflection of the lack of great players one would associate with the White Sox. .


Exactly. Which is pretty amazing given 100+ years.

BTW Collins managed the Sox for two years. Konerko might be able to best him in that category.

A month long is absurd... It was a god damn joke with the year long Jeter dick sucking fest at every park.

But once again, that happens when all time great players retire. Each team presents the guy with something, there isnt derek Jeter day at Wrigley.

I would guess NO team celebrates a player for a whole month. if Jeter is getting 1 day at Jankee stadium, 1 is fine for paulie.
The Yankees are wearing a Jeter patch all month, along with other celebrations.
