Announcement: FromThe108 Promotions
Start Transmission
Effective immediately. The following members of the Fromthe108 crew will take on new positions while doing exactly the same thing they have always done.
MySoxSummer – SVP of Champagne and Cocaine
If there were ever a 108er that would yell at the top of his lungs “I’m on a boat”, it is the one and only MySoxSummer. After serving for years as Special Assistant to Spuds MacKenzie, MSS has shown the ability to out rank a likely deceased dog and take the reins.
BeefLoaf – Supreme Pontiff of the 108
As white smoke billowed from the top of Maxwell Street Depot and loomed large over the neighborhood, we knew a decision had been made by those that make those kinds of decisive decisions. From behind a pile of onions and pork chop sandwiches (bone-in), emerged BeefLoaf, the new Pope of the 108.
Chorizy-E – Chief Operator of the Shields Defense System
Starting as a small side project, the Shields Defense System has grown to a large, throbbing entity. This year, we hear it will be working to defend the good names of all the upstanding PED users on the Hall of Fame ballot (not Clemens). It may also be deployed for Yolmer Sanchez and a yet to be signed veteran starting pitcher. With all that, we needed to promote Chorizy-E to Chief Operator.
Other promotions
Aloha Mr Hand and Wally$ have been promoted to associates. Eddie from the mailroom is now the CEO.

Ok, I have a question! I’m an A’s fan in NorCal but I like the White Sox (I have a feeling, that as fans, we understand feeling like the “forgotten step child” or “second class citizens” of a major metropolitan area/city – despite being the historically more successful and storied team).
I only have one suggestion – I think you guys should add an “About” Page. This site is pretty fun looking but from an outsider’s view it is just a teeny bit confusing! Whatever you do – keep doing what you’re doing. I like it!
You guys seem cool and dont appear to act like elitists thinking you’re better than other fans the way the people who sit in the RF Bleachers in Oakland. They think they are the best fans ever and their cyberbullied who lie about people online and try to hurt them in their real lives. I know from experience bc I’ve been their target going on 7 yrs now and their lies and fake tweets/posts impersonating me have really hurt my actual life. They suck … you guys seem fun , down to earth. I love that!
This site seems fun & I’m glad I stumbled upon it! I wanna read about bullshit, beer & baseball – three of my fave things(add bbq & naps & you’ve got my top 5! #truestory! ππ€£) Its just since I do not know you guys the names are kinda confusing that’s all.
But cool site – I dig it! Oh and Chicago is my favorite city to travel to EVER and I can definitely tell you one thing I know from many trips to both ballparks. The fans and the games are hella more fun on the Southside!!! ππThanks for listening to a stranger who talks too much π€¦ββοΈ & Best of Luck your boys in 2020! π
Thanks for the suggestion on the About Us page, that could be fun. We do share a kinship with A’s and Rays fans. In fact, we just had one of the newest members of the A’s on our podcast: http://fromthe108.libsyn.com/fromthe108-reliever-tj-mcfarland
That is really cool!!! Sorry for the long comment! I tend to ramble! And an About page would be fun! Thanks for the link! I can’t wait to check it out! Keep up the fun work you guys are doing! I’ll drop in and leave you comments from time to time! LOL! Like the page! Happy Holidays! ~ Jen π
PS – maybe I’ll buy some merch and next time I’m in town I will stop by your section!! πππ€©
