It’s been five days since we had a White Sox game on TV, so let’s do what we usually do when there’s little to talk about and complain about team ownership.
We love to grumble about Jerry Reinsdorf, largely because he’s managed to oversee a total of six playoff appearances in 40 years of White Sox ownership. His tenure in Chicago in multiple sports has been by and large a failure when Michael Jordan isn’t involved.
But! What if I told you that not only has his unwillingness to spend quite enough prevented both of his teams from achieving any kind of sustained success over the last two decades, the money he has invested in the real world has been at best less-than-promising and at worst downright ghoulish and disgusting?
