A tweet from lifelong sox fan Jay Cuda sums up the ownership philosophy of reisndorf perfectly; the white sox have 5 front office personnel in analytics, 2 in scouting, and 50 in ticket sales. For other teams, having less than 20 in analytics and less than 10 in scouting is unheardof, while having 30+ in ticket sales is the same. And yet they cant sell tickets

I can’t believe it’s taken people this long to recognize him as the piece of shit owner he is. It’s also a bad business model to rely on promotions and half priced brats to get people in the stadium when Wrigley is on the other side of town where casual fans congregate for “the experience”. His model is spend just enough for second place and give fans hope they’re a piece of 2 away from winning a championship. He no longer has Konerko Buerlue Thome AJ or any of the other core players of the past for that business model to work and we have the 2024 Whitesox. Add the Bulls too.

[@josephagostinelli3027]

It was mentioned late, but the Sox mediocrity at best and disaster at worst is all due to Jerry Reinsdorf’s leadership. Just like the Bulls, he prefers his teams to be aggressively average so he keeps his costs down and can still sell tickets. He’s the owner and it’s his prerogative to run the team like a part of his portfolio instead of building a consistent winner, and he has certainly enjoyed the increased wealth and value of each team because of it. But had he not lucked into Jordan and had the stars align for an improbable 2005 World Series win, he would legitimately be at the helm for two of the least successful franchises in all of sports.

I’m a Cubs fan and in my early 40’s and it was rough for a long while. Sox fans would just brazenly approach me and tell me “Cubs suck”, and just stand there. No follow up. No “I’m just busting balls”. Just an ice-cold lack of respect for you and all things you hold dear. Now that the Sox are terrible, I should be justifiably tormenting Sox fans, right? Wrong. Wrong, wrong, wrong. I genuinely feel bad for REAL Sox fans. The entire franchise is a car crash. Nobody wants the players that the Sox want to trade, and nobody wants to pay up for the players they don’t want to trade. They have no exciting prospects. They have a boring stadium. A crotchety fool for a color commentator. No brain-trust. A stubborn ass of an owner. It’s a sea of misery. I feel sorry for Sox fans. The future is bleak.

Speaking of which, you should do a video on the Padres history of trading top prospects and/or would be all stars and how those turned out and you'll soon realize why this franchise has only had a handful of great seasons in its history.

[@Rowgue51]

They're just terrible at actually evaluating talent. They never stop to think about why another team would be willing to trade a top prospect to them for a bag of balls.

The team was completely constructed terribly. Even if all the hyped prospects panned out (they rarely do for any team), the only one who could actually defend is Moncada and Robert. Tim Anderson, Abreu, Vaughn and ESPECIALLY Eloy are liabilities on defense. Left field, right field and 2nd base were holes that were never addressed and the FO prioritized the Bullpen and starting rotation despite them already being good. Oh and Lucas Giolito was a spider tack babby who rode a gimmick (High changeups) till the league caught on.

No excuses, we now see it wasn't LaRussa fault, something is going on with someone(s) in the clubhouse/personal. Also, once Jim Thome refused to bunt in the 2006 season, it was the downfall of small ball, to a team that tries to hit home runs but cannot do so. Robert/Anderson are over rated in my opinion, their k to bb does not make them a premier hitters. The White Sox have not had a winning month since they traded Nick Madrigal. We also picked up really bad hitters this year Maldonado & DeJong.

All baseball owners were relatively cheap back then, baseball was not a multi billion dollar business and there was no free agency.

Jack Brickhouse's sports segment on WGN News was a deep dive into the game of the day and it would last for about 20 minutes. The Sox were on Channel 26 and Channel 44. You could never get a good picture and these stations had nothing in ways to bolster or support the organization. On WGN, when there was a rain delay, there was always really interesting programming. And it usually had nothing to do with the Cubs, but they had all sorts of baseball history and sometimes I enjoyed those days better than watching the game.

[@vewaddell]

The White Sox have always been bad at roster building. It takes a complete team to win in an MLB marathon of a season. You can have seven superstars but there are many other aspects to a complete team: solid 5 or 6 man rotation, backup players, utility infielder, speed off the bench to pinch run, pinch hitters, middle relievers, and late game defensive replacements. Most good baseball teams have a role for everyone on the roster. Sox have rarely appreciated the whole team approach. One symptom is their frequent poor defense. Pitching needs defense. Ozzie understood that.

In all honesty. When the terrible , soon-to-be dead owner & front office chose between Machado/Harper, thats how we shouldve known this rebuild wasnt going to work. Teams that are serious sign both. You dont choose nor lowball 26yr old unrestricted free agents

LAKELAND FLORIDA MENTIONED 🦅🦅🦅🦅 lanky lefty

very low volume

As a Chicago Cubs fan no one’s happier for the White Sox than me

[@hateusernames2]

White Sox are having a hard time

[@brianmcnamara683]

did this man say grant park

[@zacharygotreaux9776]

I’d say The Angels with Trout and/or Ohtani is a greater tragedy.

[@afrayedrope1939]

Go cubs gooooo

[@Nichrysalis]

Guillen = GEE-in Robert = RAW-burt It's not gee-YEHN or ro-BEAR. I know because I'm a fan of this dumpster fire of a team. Pray for my soul.

[@NolmDirtyDan]

Its Luis ROBERT, not Robear!! He goes by the American pronunciation of his name!!

[@raulduke6105]

TL was a huge mistake

[@michaelleroy9281]

Rick Renteria wasn't exactly producing a winner either 2020 playoff appearance was a fluke it came in a 60 game season

[@jimwerther]

LaRussa won Everyone else loses

[@djl9919]

and my Blue Jays are following in the White Sox footsteps

[@patrickmayo107]

I feel like the clubhouse culture problems they've had the past 3 years are even more wild considering that the players wanted Rick Renteria replaced as their manager for not holding them accountable enough following that 2020 playoff loss.

[@markb3451]

As an Angels fan I call erroneous.

[@eg4325]

My team always. But this season is impossible to follow as a fan. Credit to the fans who have not muted this team and are still watching

[@keithpodhradsky1314]

WE knew you could not endure what Cubs fans put up with. Now you are proving it. Fair weather Sox fans love to buy the license plates but not the tickets. That said, they are giving you even less of a reason to show up.

[@kiwimaddog2020]

I love love love making fun of my dad for having a shitty team (it’s just our dynamic) I wish them many more years of poor performance

[@keithpodhradsky1314]

You mean the celebrations that only drew 1.5 million people while the Cubs drew about 6 million?

[@AV57]

To be fair, we're all equally disappointing in the eyes of our fathers.

[@DERRTYCHYBO]

It sucks being a white Sox fan

[@wolfwilliams]

Will this team ever hit the market? Ownership seems the biggest problem, almost as bad as the A's.

They weren't known as the "Black Sox" for throwing the 1919 World Series. Since Comiskey wanted to charge the players to launder the uniforms, the players refused to pay so the uniforms were just rinsed with water without being laundered with soap. The dirt-covered uniforms resulted in them receiving the moniker "Black Sox".
