Like he Personally hates being on the S side of Chicago and missing hunting.

While none of us would probably want to sit in a blind for 48 hrs with a bunch of guys (Darkside excluded) versus playing MLB....I totally understand it. He has enough money, so why not go and od what you want to do.





If he wasn't so outmatched and getting booed for being a bum..he'd stick it out and honor his contract..Im hoping a grizzly eats his ignorant ass.


So now you are mad at the guy who helped your team by leaving...?

Ever thought of booing these guys who gave him the money?

:lol: the Cubs are my team, I wanted those guys to have to reap what they sewed with Laroche.

hahn stated "We were aware this might happen and have protected ourselves against this."

Come on....always BS from them.

How about a simple, "Adam is doing what he thinks is best and we wish him good luck"

While thinking
'FUCK YEAH'

Really not what he said at all. He said it was unexpected, but that the team built depth in-case of losing players, which is usually because of injury. But do not let the retirement of Adam LaRoche go by without taking a shot at the White Sox.

What could the Sox have possibly done to him?

Players are giving discounts to play for the Cubs. Players are giving $13M to not play for the Sox.

That is pretty great if true.

You want your kid in the clubhouse? Don't suck.

Ken Rosenthal is confirming that Kenny Williams told LaRoche to dial back how much his kid was in the clubhouse.

Wow, that's pretty weird.

Not sure why LaRoche (or any player) would think it's his right to have a child with him at work.

I didn't realize the kid was there basically 100% of the time.

I remember the stories from Spring Training last year, but I thought that was just Spring Training.

Whatever. Good riddance.

Just talked to ‪#‎White‬ Sox president Ken Williams. Here is what he told me about LaRoche:
"There has been no policy change with regards to allowance of kids in the clubhouse, on the field, the back fields during spring training. This young man that we're talking about, Drake, everyone loves this young man. In no way do I want this to be about him.
"I asked Adam, said, 'Listen, our focus, our interest, our desire this year is to make sure we give ourselves every opportunity to focus on a daily basis on getting better. All I'm asking you to do with regard to bringing your kid to the ballpark is dial it back.'
"I don't think he should be here 100 percent of the time - and he has been here 100 percent, every day, in the clubhouse. I said that I don't even think he should be here 50 percent of the time. Figure it out, somewhere in between.
"We all think his kid is a great young man. I just felt it should not be every day, that's all. You tell me, where in this country can you bring your child to work every day?
"I respect the man and his decision. I can't disagree with what (Blaine Boyer) said about Adam as a person. But I take exception to the 'evil' part."
Boyer said of LaRoche earlier: "He is an unbelievable husband, an unbelievable father, a friend you can only dream of.
"I honestly think this is between good and evil. I know which side Adam lives on. I'm thankful to see the way he's acting. It's an unbelievable test of who he is, the husband he is, the father he is."

I don't care what they did. Who turns down 13MIL for a couple months of "work". What a pussy, he probably is mad that Bernie lost Chicago.

Exactly.

Paying a guy $13 million a year to underperform and hang out with his kid 100% of the time eventually catches up to you.

Boyer is probably a religious nut like LaRoche.

Nothing to see there.

1. Shoud have never allowed it last year, but he did.
2. Set the parameters this year before the kid gets there.
3. Dont react like a prick, like you do for everything.

Not sure how much LaRoche spent going to games as a kid with his dad, but I know he did.
