They're all for minor league contracts.

To bring it back around, he was a fairly big White Sox fan too which is rarely as easy as liking the Cubs, goats notwithstanding.blovy8https://www.blogger.com/profile/06888192019412533415noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9207681.post-48116123181943558002014-12-23T11:12:30.726-08:002014-12-23T11:12:30.726-08:00Look, it's kind of like laughing at Mr. Ed (wh...Look, it's kind of like laughing at Mr. Ed (which I do, because even though they're hack jokes, coming from a horse's mouth they are absurd), the obvious Farrell persona obscures the other things that are kinda good about that film. The underlying labor/middle management relationship is interesting. Can you be relentlessly positive in a negative world? Can James Caan participate in something worthwhile where he can actually change? Is Ed Asner doomed to be Lou Grant forever?
