@HowmanGregg @Mikehomeseller Love Lay your hands on me by TT. Great song and so underrated
English
@Mikehomeseller So many great bands already mentioned. Two that haven’t been but were darn good: Thompson Twins and INXS. Both real bangers in the ‘80s.
English
Which band made the best music in the 80s?

@Jared_Carrabis Yeah but you’re also watching the Whitesox so hopefully that helps ease your pain. We’ll happily adopt you for this season
English
I can’t believe I have to watch this team for five more months. This is the earliest a season has been objectively over in my lifetime. Pathetic, pathetic team.
English
@FleecedByGetz 2 games out of first. Definitely don’t want to see the lead blown after those 2 heartbreaking losses to the nationals. Giving up the homer and another hard hit ball was good enough
English
@scottmerkin Stats like this are so useless and used just to get clicks and likes…typical for today’s version of ‘journalism’.
English
One of Murakami's 12 homers have come against a pitch 97+ mph (98.2 mph by Elvis Alvarado on 4/17). He is 2-11 with a 52.6% whiff rate on 97+ mph pitches, per MLBN Gameday notes.
English
@TJenkinsTampa But $50k isn’t life changing but $1mil is. Also, Bartolo Colon hit a homerun so I think anyone’s who played at least varsity baseball and was a good player should still choose the $1mil option.
English
Skenes has thrown 5,568 pitches at the MLB Level. He’s allowed 23 home runs.
That’s roughly one home run every 250 pitches against the world’s greatest hitters.
If you’re reading this: You would never, could never, never ever, ever ever, hit a home run off Paul Skenes. Ever.

Would you rather... A. Be given $50,000 right now B. Have 100 pitches to hit a HR off of Paul Skenes for $100 million

@ChiSoxFanMike If Teel started the year 100% and Hays never got hurt, it’s very possible we’re in 1st place in this crappy division. The WBC really screwed us
English
The White Sox have gotten virtually no production out of their catchers and also have a minor league level outfield.
If Murakami, Colson, and Vargas have bad games, they are going to struggle to score. It’s not that surprising. They desperately need Teel and Hays to come back.
English
@SoxSideJustin Don’t forget he was in charge of the worst minor league system in baseball when he was there
English
@BBGreatMoments Best change to any sports I’ve seen in a very long time. One of the few bright spots of our horrible league commissioner
English
The ABS challenge system has been way less annoying than I expected. Do you like it so far?
English
@CalTh1726 @TheChicagoPope Thus the FU to reinsdorf and Getz. JR chose Getz ‘because it’s our quickest path to being competitive’ & then decided to hold this fanbase hostage until either 2029 or unless something causes him to leave the team. The OP & fans have all the reason in the world to hate the Owner
English
@TheChicagoPope Harsh. Take it easy. It’s fucking April. Is this your first season watching baseball? The Sox aren’t good and won’t be for a while. Progress is incremental. Settle down.
English
I know Venable doesn’t have a great roster but his decision-making is absolutely inexcusable. Sitting 4 of our best players for AAA dipshits and avoiding the best arms in your bullpen in a close, must-win game. Again.
Fuck Chris Getz and FUCK Jerry Reinsdorf. #WhiteSox
English
@SoxSideJustin It’s the 27 K’s that really killed us these 2 games. Even w/out hits, you can have productive outs w/runners on & the K’s negate that. Homers are great but there’s no situational hitting on this team and our big 3 looked long ball happy this series & their swings got really long
English
@uscfan981 It’s one of the quickest states to get through on our road trips from Illinois to Florida
English
My expectations for this White Sox vs Nationals series are so low I’d honestly take just one win.
I can’t believe my faith in this team is already this low.

My expectations for this White Sox vs D-Backs series are so low I’d honestly take just one win. I can’t believe my faith in this team is already this low.

@Wins_Williams Personally I think the ABS is the best thing to happen to baseball in my lifetime. It’s instant and almost every game there’s a pitch overturned that in the past I’d go to bed at night still pissed off the ump missed it. To me, it’s by far the best addition a sport has ever made
English
Again, theres no way this isn't within the margin of error for the tech. I hate everything about it. This has been a relatively uncontroversial 'whatever ump says it is' for 145 years. Congrats to all the gamblers that got what they wanted.

Jose Caballero just had the greatest ABS challenge of all-time holy shit
English
This is the first known video of this Chicago band from the November 19, 1988 Roselle, IL show, known as the Pulse Basement Jam. ‘There It Goes’ is one of their earlier demo songs.
👉🏻 Name the band.
English
I can think of no greater use of $75 million than 5 years of Andrew Benintendi.
English
@OneOutOf4 Gonna have to look into that. Would be crazy to think we probably crossed paths at some point. I lived two towns over from him but obviously never heard of Smashing Pumpkins in the 80’s
English
@CWSandND It just said it was a local cable access TV show called The Pulse. Recorded in Roselle but not sure of the exact location of the show.
English
@JamesFox917 If only he could just fix these calls. Showing excitement is good but cheesy ‘Hawk Harrelson wannabe’ quotes are gonna be his downfall. Too cheesy for MLB. I like him though and 95% of the game is pretty darn good, just needs to fix his home run calls and not be so over the top
English
Might be Schriffen’s best call

ADMIN IS RUNNING OUT OF THINGS TO SAY. MUNETAKA. MURAKAMI. HOME RUN. 5TH STRAIGHT GAME. 🍿🍿🍿
