coming from a non-whitesox fan perspective hiring la russa is a great move.

when the chips are down in the playoffs, do you guys think LaRussa will make some boneheaded move like Cash did taking a pitcher out who was dominating the other team? HELL NO!

the White Sox are World Series bound w/ LaRussa, gare-un-tee it! It will be a fun team to watch next 3-4 years and I'm sure they'll get at least 1 pennant in that stretch and possibly a world series.

And as I've said before, hiring a big name like larussa puts the WSox as a premier team in the baseball world. They aren't going to be ignored as a the second team in the second city. A lot of hype and buzz will come w/ this hire.

As a baseball fan I cannot wait for the 2021 White Sox!

I think the appropriate word here is PUTZ.

Why is this guy still on the air? F'n Stupid.

As a cub fan, I agree.

If TLR is hired, I will be actively rooting for the Sox to be successful.

Initially, I was rooting for the hire just so Dans head would explode, but now I’ll be rooting for them because it is wholly unfair how this guy is being treated.

Also, it’s possible that some of his players would fucking agree with his opinions. But his social opinions is completely beside the fucking point. Just complete madness that this is what is guiding certain peoples opinions on a baseball manager in 2020

Most also think fighter jets flying over and air shows are cool too but whatever.

Joe Sheehan was Dan's favorite, go to "expert" when the Cubs were becoming good because of his fawning over Theo and the team.

Jeff Passan will be his favorite go to "expert" regarding the White Sox.

The term Social Justice Warrior gets over used and misused like all buzz words, but Dan literally is just that.

He’s “weaponizing” social justice ideologies against those with different perspectives and doing so with malicious intent.

Having a set of opinions, regardless of what those opinions are, doesn’t make you a SJW, it’s the act of “waging war” against those that think differently.

It’s pathetic and hypocritical beyond measure

just as an aside, any of you who like to pick apart poorly structured writing published by professionals should take a look at that Passan article cited by Bernstein.

Does Syracuse not consider the written word a form of communication when teaching its Communications students?

I'm almost more excited about the LaRussa nonsense rumors ending than I am excited about the nonsense election ending

Again....hiring LaRussa almost completely nullifies all of the progress the Sox have made from being a joke of an organization.

If calling LaRussa a racist gets him not hired then.....LARUSSA IS A POS BIGOT!!!. Now go hire Hinch.

As an addendum, does Hahn take this lying down? Because I'm pretty sure he could get a higher paying GM job by Christmas.

it seems this is all Jerry. Hahn probably prefers Hinch.

Duh

I've stolen the fuck out of this joke today..hope that's cool?

Maybe if hired, LaRussa will embrace the great analytics that tell you to remove your dominating starting pitcher who hasnt given up a run after giving up a one 1 ( one) hit to start an inning in a World Series game that your relievers immediately give up the winning runs in.

Yes!!!!

I’m fucking thrilled and not out of spite as I was going to be originally!

Fuck Dan and all the people acting like he can’t be successful with this roster in 2020.

Go—fucking—-sox

He's one year younger than Biden, seems legit.

I case y'all were concerned I wont be tracking the social meltdown over this, rest yer purdy little heads. I'll be posting several tweets covering this outrage.

I will be posting in every wsox thread here next season.

Both had interesting things to say about the Balcks in the 90s too!

Just one more piece of evidence we live in a simulation.

Who manages the Wsox bandwagon here?

Since frank c left as a White Sox fan and gave his lifelong allegiance to the dodgers along with reg reader that makes 2 spots immediately open.

LOHO is crying because the new manager isn't a flaming liberal. This is why the score sucks
