re: Chaim Bloom is the worst GM in baseball. Maybe ever.

You haven't met The White Sox own, Rick Hahn. After a 4 year rebuild, he presents a thin team and the #30 farm. Doesn't know analytics, can't evaluate talent.

Disagree. This is another heavy handed owner that the GM/Pres succeeds in spite of.
That's a nice rebuild he's presided over. 6 or 5 guys who could be All Stars when healthy.
Einhorn shite the bed hiring his buddy LaRussa - who is in his 70's - to lead a young, mostly Latin ball club.
Hell, bringing Ozzie back again would have been a better move.

Posts like this make me grateful for having a totally non-Jewish sounding name despite being Jewish.

Why does putting the word “Jew” in front of any object make it sound a little anti-Semitic? There are several theories for how the jewfish (Promicrops itaiara), an Atlantic saltwater grouper with fins and scales, got its name. It may derive from the Italian “giupesce,” which means “bottom fish,” or may have originally been named “jawfish” for its large mouth. A less flattering theory is that in the 1800s, jewfish were declared inferior and only fit for Jews.

I dated an Argentine girl once and am Jewih. Argentine’s call green beans great Jews. I did not know this when I first ate at her parents house. I was one red Jew at the end of that meal.

No hard feelings though. She touched my penis and got a little Messi.
