Originally recorded 09/25/24 What a night. We recorded while the Chicago White Sox tried to avoid baseball infamy. Stephe, an avowed ChiSox hater, rooted loudly for their demise, especially since it would benefit his beloved Royals' chances at making the playoffs. Bruce served as the ESPN ticker throughout the episode. Then we discussed the recent SDCC returning registration. Yes, we got tickets for 2025. We created Moneyball Demo Night, an opportunity for A's fans to pay their parting respects to the team leaving them behind for Sin City. We talked about what it would look like when its time for our kids to put Gen X into the home. Bruce predicts much gaming will take place. Stephe proposed that Gen X is the reason all toys have soft edges now. We shared a few stories of growing up in what Bruce called the "Evel Knievel generation." What else? How about: The Story of George the Knot Marvel's Micronauts collections Marvel's giant omnibi in general Stephe's ongoing search for Darkseid Action figure talk Figures we wished we'd kept Slow Horses Kaos Baseball: The Movie - the book And, of course, we played "What's on Your Desk?"

Last week we did the 3x champion Cubs and this week the 3x champion White Sox. The Pale Hose have the 2005 improbably championship to live off of since the other two were before 1918! Lots of great ChiSox to talk about given the long 50 year drought between WS appearances - 1919 to 1959!

4c leads off with the 49ers announcement that Trey Lance will not backup Brock Purdy, and what it says about Lance's and Sam Darnold's future in SF. Why the Jets were always destined for failure, and why 4c is officially out on Tua in Miami. Additionally, he touches on the White Sox potential relocation, how to fix the Yankees, and why the Jonathan Taylor holdout/trade demands are all for naught.
Luis Robert Jr. was kinda quiet at Coors Field this weekend with the Chicago White Sox. He added his 33rd home run of the season, but it wasn't enough against the Colorado Rockies. The starting pitching was quite nice for the Rox. Peter Lambert, Kyle Freeland and Chris Flexen did their job to put Bud Black's club in winning position. Which role player had a big game on Sunday against Dylan Cease? Which of the young hitters was most impressive against the ChiSox? And is Lenyn Sosa the most uniquely named ballplayer in MLB right now?

Between Williams and Rice, only Charlie “King Kong” Keller in 1946, DiMaggio twice in '48 and 50, and Mickey Mantle accomplished the feat.On August 15th, 1996 Frank Thomas hits three homers for the White Sox, becoming the ChiSox career home run leader, but Boston wins 9-8.

NHL – Connor Bedard, as expected, taken first in the NHL draft by the Chicago Blackhawks The Chicago Blackhawks have selected Connor Bedard with the first pick in the NHL draft. The move should kick-start a hopeful new era for Chicago. Bedard is a highly skilled offensive forward who’s drawn comparisons to Connor McDavid and Sidney Crosby. Bedard is the second No. 1 pick in Blackhawks history. Chicago took Patrick Kane first in 2007 and he helped form the core of a team that won three Stanley Cup championships. Anaheim selected Sweden forward Leo Carlsson second, followed Columbus picking Michigan freshman Adam Fantilli. The Blackhawks took center Oliver Moore with the 19th pick in a previous trade with Tampa Bay. The Red Wings also had two first round selections. With the 9th pick, Detroit took, center Nate Danielson and with pick 17, Detroit grabbed Swedish defenseman, Axel Sandin Pellikka. The draft continues today with rounds 2 through 7 starting at 11 a.m. NHL – Gary Bettman urges fans to boo him, honors David Poile to kick off NHL draft NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman brought one of the league's most beloved general managers with him to the stage to kick off the draft. That may have helped keep the usual booing of Bettman to a minimum. David Poile is the longest-tenured and winningest general manager in league history. Poile is retiring Friday after overseeing the startup of the Nashville Predators as an expansion franchise in 1997. Bettman then told fans they weren't booing him up to their usual standards. He urged them to do better and made sure to appreciate them as the boos grew louder. MLB – Major League Baseball Last Night Texas Rangers 10, Detroit Tigers 2 Chicago White Sox 11, Los Angeles Angels 5 Philadelphia Phillies 8, Chicago Cubs 5 Rangers 10, Tigers 2 – Dane Dunning comes within an out of his first shutout, the Rangers beat the Tigers 10-2 Dane Dunning threw shutout ball for a career-high 8 2/3 innings, Adolis Garcia homered for the third consecutive game and the Texas Rangers beat the Detroit Tigers 10-2 on Wednesday night. Josh Jung and Ezequiel Duran also each had solo home runs and RBI singles. Dunning (7-1) retired 17 straight batters between Zach McKinstry's single to open the game and McKinstry's two-out double in the sixth. With Dunning an out from a shutout, Andy Ibanez legged out an infield single, a call that stood following a Texas challenge, and Kerry Carpenter homered. White Sox 11, Angels 5 – Zavala homers twice, drives in 4 runs as the White Sox beat the Angels 11-5 Seby Zavala had his second two-homer game of the season and drove in four runs to help the Chicago White Sox break out of an offensive slump with an 11-5 victory over the Los Angeles Angels on Wednesday night. The White Sox scored in each of the first five innings to build a 9-2 lead. Chicago had 17 hits, including three apiece from Andrew Vaughn and Zach Remillard.

NHL – Connor Bedard, as expected, taken first in the NHL draft by the Chicago Blackhawks The Chicago Blackhawks have selected Connor Bedard with the first pick in the NHL draft. The move should kick-start a hopeful new era for Chicago. Bedard is a highly skilled offensive forward who’s drawn comparisons to Connor McDavid and Sidney Crosby. Bedard is the second No. 1 pick in Blackhawks history. Chicago took Patrick Kane first in 2007 and he helped form the core of a team that won three Stanley Cup championships. Anaheim selected Sweden forward Leo Carlsson second, followed Columbus picking Michigan freshman Adam Fantilli. The Blackhawks took center Oliver Moore with the 19th pick in a previous trade with Tampa Bay. The Red Wings also had two first round selections. With the 9th pick, Detroit took, center Nate Danielson and with pick 17, Detroit grabbed Swedish defenseman, Axel Sandin Pellikka. The draft continues today with rounds 2 through 7 starting at 11 a.m. NHL – Gary Bettman urges fans to boo him, honors David Poile to kick off NHL draft NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman brought one of the league's most beloved general managers with him to the stage to kick off the draft.

Poile is retiring Friday after overseeing the startup of the Nashville Predators as an expansion franchise in 1997. Bettman then told fans they weren't booing him up to their usual standards. He urged them to do better and made sure to appreciate them as the boos grew louder.

He was a unanimous first team All-American and swept all of the national player of the year awards. It’s the second straight year a Purdue player has declared early for the draft.

Shields is the main attraction on a card that includes up-and-coming fighters from Michigan. Since Thomas Hearns retired in 2006, no one in boxing has been a big enough name to draw large crowds in Detroit.
