  1. I wish I could work for the whitesox front office. I could be completely crap at my job and still have it for years.

  2. Whats sad is how little I felt or cared even a little bit.

    Honestly I do think that was a horrible call. It was a curveball that started and ended off the plate, it was never close. And thats a pretty big situation in a vaccum.

    But I legitimately felt nothing. Zero rage whatsoever. Just a chuckle at Schriffen’s reaction and Steve’s (lack of) reaction to that. Thats all.

    It passed by without a second thought. Thats strike 3 on what should be ball 4, a literal game ending blown call. And I feel nothing.

  3. All I learned is that John Cannon seems legit and has a hot ass gf wearing cowgirl boots and daisy dukes

  4. I transition from the office to the car and we are then down 1 on a gopher ball – I can’t believe this team and its creativity to lose.

  5. Now on pace to win 19 games!! Let’s go!!!!!! How low can it go, how low can it go!?

  6. This is our eighth multi-run game of the season. With this result, we’ve increased the share of games in which we’ve scored two or more runs to 47% of our games.

    With our 36th run, we are now within 14 runs of tying Oakland (50) for the 29th-most runs in all of major league baseball.

    The Dodgers (106), Orioles (104), Braves (103), and Diamondbacks (103) are now no longer tripling our seasonlong run total, leaving only the Padres (109) in that category.

    We’ve also removed Colorado (70), Miami (70), and Toronto (69) from the list of teams that are doubling our seasonlong run total, leaving only 19 other teams on that list.

  7. This is a worse start than the 1899 Cleveland Spiders, this is going to be a historically bad team.

  8. This was the first game of the year that I could have gone to and I really had to do some soul searching about if it was even worth the trip on the CTA. Didn’t end up going and feel just as disappointed in myself as this team
