I know most of you are excited that Paul Beeston is finally leaving. However, I personally feel no ill words towards the man. I remember meeting him twice and actually having a in-person and phone conversation with the man after I wrote to him explaining the terrible time my wife and I had a Chicago White Sox and Blue Jays game this past season. He personally called me and my wife in Chicago and offered to give us two premium tickets to a game in Toronto or Chicago for any game, since him and Reinsdorf are friends.
When I was the phone with him, he was nice, apologetic, and actually wanted my input on how to make the experience better, but still I could imagine him sitting at his desk with his feet on the desk - with no socks, drinking a scotch and chomping on a cigar.
Sooner or later everyone will start hating on Mark Shapiro and it will begin again.
