       POLL:  Which one change should Jerry Reinsdorf make this
       off-season?

       make your choice.  These are the ONLY choices available in this
       poll.  No fire them all or two of the three.  Just one guy
       sacked. Chose one of the three: Kenny Williams, Ozzie Guillen or
       Greg Walker.
       one vote per member.  This poll is for four days.
       possible reasons for firing Kenny Williams:  Bad trades
       (examples - both Swisher trades, Tony Pena trade, acquiring Mark
       Teahen from Royals, Dan Hudson for Edwin Jackson, etc.).  Bad
       contracts: extending Mark Teahen, signing Scott Linebrink.
       Claiming Alex Rios on waivers.  Signing the biggest free-agent
       bust of the off-season in Adam Dunn.  Putting his friend Dave
       Wilder in as Senior Director of Player Personnel which led to
       skimming money from the organization through kickbacks to Wilder
       and his co-conspiring scouts from the over inflated signing
       bonuses of bad ballplayers.
       possible reasons for firing Ozzie Guillen:  his mouth, his dufus
       son's twitter account, his act may have worn thin with the
       players and questionable moves this season which may have lost
       them games.
       possible reasons for firing Greg Walker:  the White Sox offense
       sucks and has done so for the last few years.  His inability to
       help Adam Dunn, Alex Rios or Gordon Beckham perform to their
       expected capabilities.

       Sorry, but I want them all gone - including a new chairman.

       I voted for Fire Walker.  Give KW and Oz another year with a
       different batting coach to see if there's any improvement in the
       offense.  My money says there will be.

       Like the forced-choice.    I picked Kenny; this team is
       handcuffed for the next few years with 3 horrible contracts and
       will probably lose Buehrle as a result.

       Getting a different batting coach isnt going to get the cobwebs
       out of Rios's head. He isnt going to hit consistantly with a
       different batting coach. Even if he did it wouldnt make that
       contract worthwhile. We should never have picked him up off
       waivers in the first place.
       The Ozzie and Kenny thing boils down to who you blame. If you
       despise your GM and he gets you this player and he stinks you
       play him to make the GM look bad so that the blame if firmly
       fixed. I think there are a lot of mind games being played here,
       some we arent privy to. I still believe that Ozzie is a good
       manager. With the right players Ozzie would be a much better
       manager.

       I chose Kenny, but I'd really like to see them all go.  Possibly
       Jerry too.  It's just time for a change already.  It's been 30
       YEARS!!!   :o

       I too am sick of Ozzie and his dumb @ss loser kids hanging
       around the organization.
       But KW has stuck us with some BAD hands!!!!
