Here's an e-mail I just sent to Boers and Bernstein. Hopefully, they'll read it. :
I liken the White Sox' situation to a parent giving their kid the keys to their Ferrari (or other expensive, top of the line car that you want). If the kid takes care of it, is a good driver, and knows what to do in certain situations, everything will be great. If, however, the kid doesn't take care of it, is a bad driver, and doesn't know what to do in certain situations, bad things gon' happen. Well, Jerry crashed that car and ran over a bunch of people along the way. The car's totaled and we can only hope to salvage some parts. Now, Kenny has to do whatever he can to get Frank to buy out his option and get the hell outta town. He'll have to be creative with contracts, get some young, fundamentally sound players in the system, and start the rebuilding process. Most importantly, he needs to send Hawk with a message to Jerry to tell him that "He Gone!"
