Casey Johnson

And more importantly, for the relationship that has been forged.

I was so blessed to be able to work with such great owners.

I owe so much to my players and staff over the last six years.

You all have worked side by side with me day in and day out to drive the Bulls organization forward.

And a huge thanks to you.

You Bulls fans, your energy, passion, and unwavering support provided a home court advantage that is generally unmatched around the league.

I love that even in those final moments of him having to look out for the organization speaks.

Even in the final moments of him being here, it's like, no, guys, that's not how any of this works.

That's why I keep extolling Billy's virtue.

Because a less virtuous person, a less serious person, sits here and takes their money and takes their adoration and stays on the job even though he knows that it's not the right thing to do.

And it's what should have happened in 2020 with Tony La Russa.

He should have just said no.

It's like, no, I'm not going to do this.

This doesn't feel right at all.

And imagine where the White Sox as an organization could have been if there had been that level of honor.

It's beautiful.

Even inside of their statements, as you pointed out, Speaks, you don't have to keep shining the apple.

We all know how you guys feel about Billy.

It's the same way that everyone feels about Billy.

that Billy's a really good coach who was dealt a terrible hand.
