Now that the White Sox have decided to move to another station, WSCR on-air personalities are finally getting tough on the Sox, in particular the front office and manager. Too bad Sox fans couldn't get this honesty in previous years.

Similar to WGN getting the Blackhawks, WSCR is getting the Cubs at the perfect time. The next few years will definitly be WCUB.

Funny you mention this. I've heard Joe Ostrowski bash Rongey a few times over the last month or so. Joe O is his producer for Sox games. Joe called him a Sox company man. Something that his callers say to him, but means a lot more coming from the producer. Then he bashed Rongey for doing a 2 hour post game show after an Angel game. Joe said "It's 1 o clock in the morning. He was talking to nobody and we were getting no calls. I just wanted to go home!!!!" :lol:

When DAN BERNSTEIN calls out JERRY REINSDORF for his absolute 35 year MISMANAGEMENT of the White Sox, the Sun will rise in the West.

What is the personal and/or professional relationship Bernstein has with Reinsdorf?

I actually heard Rongey the other night. Driving to Michigan after La Oaf hit into the game ending DP.

Naturally he was SCHOOLED by caller Maureen who wondered what in the Hell LaRoche was doing pinch hitting in the 9th with the game on the line.

Rongey gave the COMPANY MAN BULLSHIT on how the Sox are trying to get LaOaf some CONFIDENCE going into next season. BECAUSE HE IS UNDER CONTRACT.

THAT is where Rongey does NOT HAVE THE BALLS to say THAT is THE PROBLEM. The WIN NOW stupidity of White Sox MANAGEMENT in some desperate WIN NOW Philosophy signing washed up Bums like Dunn and LaRoche and not eating the money and RELEASING them.

Maybe Rongey can take Kenny's job in this FUCKED UP ORGANIZATION and act as THE BUFFER between Hahn and CHAIRMAN!!!

Rongey has the media experience CHAIRMAN finds so invaluable!!!

Has it been decided if Rongey is going to 890 with the Sox? Has he said anything about it on twitter?

Possibly some connection through the philanthropic world, but equally likely that Dan just has an undying admiration for Jerry Reinsdorf.

Let's just say it how it is. Dan has an undying admiration for all rich Jewish men. They're REALLY SMART PEOPLE according to Dan. The rich gentiles just got lucky according to Dan. No love for them.

Thinking it over, Bud Selig is the only rich Jewish man in the world of sports whom Dan has not only not praised but had actual antipathy for.

Rongey is a company man, its basically his job. Cant really fault him for it.

Fault the Sox, I mean if they are the real hard core, ultra knowledgable fan base their marketing department claims they are...well, then it shouldnt matter if he told the truth.

.....and lets go back to the guy that most of this BS trickles down from ...Kenny. From every angle he treats the organization, the ball park, the fans like its war. Calling WSCR to complain about WSCR people wearing Cubs shirt at the Cell? While I actually might agree with him, do you think any other organization president would do that....any other baseball GM going in to the Clubhouse numerous times over the years, throwing tables, turning off radios, bitching out players?

Best thing that could happen to the Sox organization is his departure.

Chris Rongey defending the Sox and Joe Ostrowski complaining that he has to work at his radio job: is this Peak Score B-Team?

Cowley opened fire on Kenny Saturday. Hates him as a person as well.

when I started my career, an early client was Mc Donalds. They had been a client since well before my arrival. I was the most junior person on the team with at least two others maximizing the billing. We all went to a site visit for some new project. I decided to speak during the meeting and used the words "fast food". The conversation stopped and the Mc Donald's rep kind of stared at me for a minute before dismissively moving on. I got dressed down back at the office as "fast food" was some kind of taboo term within their corporate speak and I had violated.
