So if they don't belong, why did Sale get pissed? Omelette doesn't know enough about this.

Well, he is available. I'm sure the Sox would have no issue if the Cubs want to sign Adam and Drake.

THe worst thing out of all this bullcrap is Reinny's asinine statement afterwards.

If Sale isn't happy with Kenny Williams, perhaps he should come up to the nice side of town where he won't have to deal with nonsense like this. And he can play for a contender for once as well.

"Nice side of town"? You mean where the butt buddies hang out with their sissy friends? And go to rub their schlongs together at the smelliest ball-park in all of baseball? That side of town?:(

I blame Drake for all of this. Obviously he intentionally put his father on the spot to perform better and that caused undue pressure on the old man, hence his pathetic season. Kenny was just trying to help Adam by getting rid of Damien the accursed kid:(

He lied to the players and coaches. He told the players that the coaches were the ones having issues with it. The coaches denied this to the players. It came from straight upstairs. It seems only WS fans think this situation was handled appropriately. Also, Sale is taking the brunt for being outspoken but Adam Eaton was outspoken as well.

:oprah:

The best thing to come from all of this is that White Sox fans are doing some exquisite trolling online and I fucking love it:

You have such an active imagination.

I guess that shows the ineptness of Kenny Williams and Jerry Reinsdorf....even when they are 'right', they still manage to come off as being 'wrong' and alienate their best player. In general, I think its strange that Jerry Reinsdorf believes he still has 'gravitas' with the fans. He went public with the Thibodeaux 'breakup', which was one of the dumbest PR statements ever put forth by an owner. He inserted himself into the LaRoche situation and expected his word to be final. The definition of tone deaf. In the end, the White Sox got LaRoche's salary off the books, which is usually the common theme in all of Reinsdorf's questionable actions.

I think that Jerry R. is SATAN come down to earth to make it hell for White Sox and Bulls fans. Until God unleashes Michael the archangel to skewer him will the Sox and Bulls fans be able to escape purgatory and enjoy themselve as fans!

Wonder what religious faith Adam LaRoche belongs to. He almost looks like one of those survivalists who live in the nether regions of Idaho or the guy who does those "SETTLER'S ads on TV commercials. Wonder if they cut Drake's hair with that cereal bowl?:)

Update:

I did a little research on LaRoche and found out that he is in business with Robertson of the Duck Dynasty which kind of explains that ridiculous beard that he wears. He also home schools his kids and says that he doesn't have much use for schools. He even said that Drake could learn more about life in a major league locker-room than in a school. Draks was a frequent visitor in the Nationals locker-room while he was there and it was a concession on the part of the White Sox to get him as a free agent..

LaRoche also is one of the outspoken Christians in baseball and leads Bible Study sessions during and after the season.

As I thought, this guy is one unusual fellow and that it is not surprising to me that some other players and coaches did not agree with his demands of bringing Drake into their locker room. I am frankly surprised that this hasn't come up beforehand.

I will bet you guys that LaRoche and his kid are already planning on making a TV episode on Duck Dynasty which will focus on his religious and family values. ANd the White Sox will be villains all around. Perhaps Sale and Eaton will be guest stars in a hunting or fishing episode or two including them taking taget practice at life sized cut-outs of Williams and Reinny.

Reinsdork needs to get the hell out of baseball. He hires idiots to run his organization and has the common sense of a baboon. To go along with guy like LaRoche and allow him to bring his kid into the major league locker-room is pathetic.

Can you imagine the ridicule that is going to get foisted onto the Sox by the other players. I imagine the interviews as the team travels. They are sure to ask about the LaRoche farce and their answers will be muted because of official "White Sox Policy" ordered by der CHairman Reinny. This is going to be a pretty amazing soap opera.

I imigine the Players Association will take up the cause and demand that LaRoche get paid his $13M or to force the Sox to donate the money to a LaRoche charity or charities of his choosing.
The beat writers of the Sox are going to have a lot of fun with this:)

I already can not stand that show as it is. The more I learn about LaRoche the more I dislike him. All in all this is a good thing for the sox due to him getting off our payroll.
