Has Jerry Reinsdorf lost his drive to win?

Jerry Reinsdorf has won seven titles — six with the Bulls and one with the White Sox — during his tenure as an owner, but the last came in 2005.

Watching the two franchises Jerry Reinsdorf owns has been a sad dance. In the last week, the music has gotten maudlin.

The Bulls’ inactivity at the trade deadline was baffling yet unsurprising. The White Sox still are trying to spin their ill-advised signing of Mike Clevinger and hoping Major League Baseball bails them out.

Ordinarily, I don’t like lumping Reinsdorf’s ownership together.
