Das Texan Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 I'm jealous of the White Sox. I wish Bill DeWitt would do the same thing in St. Louis 😞 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverBullet Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 Wow it's wild to think we're having discussions of wanting to keep Kim because other teams might be after her. A year ago we would have never thought that possible. But Kim has obviously done so well here this season that Sherman has to keep her and, while an offer from the White Sox would probably be an interesting challenge for Kim, I would imagine she actually wants to keep trying at this Marlins gig cuz like it really just got good. This would horrible timing for her to leave. They're actually contending! For real this time! After years of bad crops, the fruits are finally starting to blossom... why wouldn't she want to get a taste of the fruit once they ripen?

She's started a project that's starting to come together. She would love to be compensated for it but I'm saying it would feel really good to win a championship with this group and her still being at the helm of it.

Their 30 year lease is up in 6 years. They'll explore moving, or finding a new location in the Chicago. The Reinsdorf sons have been buying up minority shares recently. They're trying to get as much value for the team as they'll sell it the second Reinsdorf passes away. They have no intention of keeping the Sox due to this being a no salary cap league. They won't sell the Bulls though Edited August 24, 2023 by Iowa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They won't sell the Bulls though surely the VIP funds on this board could be used towards purchasing the team and then we could all take turns running the team?
