Spiegel had some thoughts on Moore yesterday, specifically, that he was apparently a vocal anti-porn guy in KC.

The story goes that Moore discouraged the consumption of porn and brought in another anti-porn guy to talk to the team about the dangers of porn. Grimace characterized this as an invasion of privacy and immoral, thus making the first pro-porn morality argument in the history of AM sports talk.

Yeah but in reality all men are the embodiment of those

Lots of Gluttony for him

and sloth and lust and envy and pride

I don't see greed as much but I always have him pegged as a guy who comes from money. The anger isn't as apparent but I think he is more of a flight than a fight guy. You've seen it with on air interactions

Hopefully Beardown can weigh in on Marty’s “brand” of porn. BBW perhaps?

Getz will hopefully get lit up when he visits The Score & ESPN 1000 asked "Why hire an in-house failure?" phrased civilly.

Well who is going to be President?

The drafts have been awful. Getz was in charge of that.

Great move. Finally headed in the right direction. Getting rid of Kenny and Hahn for a fresh voice is a good thing.

Once Dayton from the Royals gets here it will be smooth sailing ahead. Maybe they can add a couple to the coaching staff from the Royals this offseason too.

I cannot yet say much about Getz. That said, getting rid of Kenny and Rick is addition by subtraction.

Hopefully, we actually get some decent questions at the press conference:

1. Who else was interviewed for the position?
2. How many people were interviewed?
3. Why was it so important to hire someone before the end of the season?
4. Do you think the White Sox have done a good job developing players during Getz' tenure?
5. In your opinion, who has been developed properly?
6. Has Getz interviewed for any other GM positions?

And many more than I can type.

Is there going to be a press conference?

Yes, at SoxFest

According to the article, there's going to be one at 3:30.

I’d be shocked if anybody involved in the hiring decision (i.e., Jerry) is available to say anything about the hiring decision.

So I hope it devolves into a lot of “why did you get this job even though you sucked at your last job?” type questions.
