Does it feel like he cares?

Setting aside the non-sports stuff (which is probably more important and even more damning), Jerry Reinsdorf has 78 combined years of ownership between the White Sox and Chicago Bulls. In those 78 seasons, in the third largest market in the country, we’ve got six Michael Jordan championships and one magical lightning-in-a-bottle World Series championship. Other than those seven combined seasons…?

Now imagine if the Portland Trailblazers had drafted the right guy in ’84. Should Jerry get credit for the fact that they didn’t? His track record of decision-making outside of the Jordan dynasty would indicate that no, any winning that’s occurred has been done in spite of his best efforts.

I’m tired of Steve Stone, Bob Nightengale and Paul Sullivan telling me “nobody wants to win more than Jerry.” Really? If winning mattered to ol’ Jerr-bear, would we have seen GarPax in the Bulls front office for 18 years? Would we have had to endure five long years of Robin Ventura, or four years of Rick Renteria, or ANY years of post-retirement Tony LaRussa??? Would any other organization even have had these names on their radar???

Anyway, here’s my fun jokey joke song, ha ha. So silly. Hopefully you’ve seen the 2004 movie Eurotrip. Enjoy.
