	Chicago White Sox Executives
		Jerry Reinsdorf begins his 25th season as chairman of the Chicago White Sox, the second-longest ownership tenure in franchise history behind club founder Charles Comiskey (1901-31) and the second-longest as a controlling owner among the 30 Major League clubs.
		Reinsdorf has played a critical role in the development of the west side area surrounding the United Center and was responsible for introducing an innovative reading program to the Chicago Public Schools.
		Reinsdorf was awarded the Ellis Island Medal of Honor in 1993 and the 1997 Mayor’s Medal of Honor.

	Jerry Reinsdorf
		Jerry Reinsdorf was born in 1936 in Brooklyn, New York.
		Reinsdorf developed the idea of Balcor Inc. when many of his high income clients were looking for investment outlets, real estate was the simplest and most lucrative.
		This was Jerry Reinsdorf at his best, his knowledge of tax law, renovations for the long-term, and his hard nose business tactics of signing high priced players all played a part in the increased profit.

		Young Jerry played punchball, a game where a small rubber ball was thrown up and punched by the "batter." This was before stickball, before baseball, before he understood that the greatest joy in his life was as close as a trip to his friend Norman Rickens' house.
		Reinsdorf works out with a trainer three days a week, something he started in '92 and has continued "religiously" since he had a stent put in to resolve a blockage in a coronary artery in January of this year.
		Reinsdorf would be embroiled in further controversy when he became known as the driving force behind trying to break the players' union in the strike of 1994-95, a period that threatened to drive many longtime fans from the game for good.

		The point is that Reinsdorf's acuity with the Bulls is not as obvious a meets the eye.
		Oddly, even as Reinsdorf's handling of the Bull is minimized, his futility with the White Sox is exaggerated.
		Reinsdorf has notched two division titles (1983 and 1993) since acquiring the club in 1981, and it was leading the A.L. Central when the strike ended the 1994 season.

	Jerry Reinsdorf - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Jerry Reinsdorf (born February 25, 1936 in Brooklyn, New York) is the owner of Chicago White Sox and the Chicago Bulls.
		Recently, he helped the White Sox win the 2005 World Series and, in the process, collected his seventh championship ring overall (the first six were all with the Bulls in the 1990s), becoming the third owner in the history of North American sports to win a championship in two different sports.
		Reinsdorf was inducted into the Appleton, Wisconsin Baseball Hall of Fame on August 5, 2006 in a ceremony at Fox Cities Stadium prior to that evening's game between the Midwest League Wisconsin Timber Rattlers and Beloit Snappers.

		Reinsdorf told John Alevizos, a New England developer who unsuccessfully tried to move the Expos to central Connecticut, on Monday that baseball is deciding between the District, Las Vegas and Monterrey, Mexico, and that Washington is the most likely choice.
		"Jerry said that after the meeting with the mayor and several folks from the city council there, he was confident about getting through [public] funding for a stadium," Alevizos said.
		If Reinsdorf's comments are true, that would effectively eliminate Northern Virginia after an 11-year pursuit of baseball that almost saw the move of the Houston Astros in 1995 to the commonwealth.

		The owners, Reinsdorf insists, also emerged from the long fight as unified as they have ever been, and are perhaps closer than ever as a group to the position espoused by Reinsdorf and other hardline owners.
		Reinsdorf admits that he's not comfortable with the press, and is prone to such broadsides as calling The New York Times a "house organ" of the baseball players' union.
		Ironically, after Reinsdorf graduated and went to work for the Internal Revenue Service in 1960, his first case was a tax delinquency by Bill Veeck, the colorful owner of the White Sox.

		If there is one thing that's certain about Reinsdorf and his Chicago sports empire, it is this: Most people in Chicago care a whole lot more about the future of an ex-White Sox minor leaguer named Michael Jordan than they do about anybody who plays for the baseball team on the city's south side.
		And as much as Reinsdorf - who declined to be interviewed for this story - has enjoyed the Bulls and their six world championships this decade, he'd rather have the White Sox win the World Series.
		However, on what would be the final day of baseball that season, Reinsdorf stood in the Comiskey Park press box and told the media that he was going to be a ''hawk'' in the players strike.

		When baseball has a first-rate brawl, Jerry Reinsdorf is usually in the middle of it.
		But if he wants it rough, he's going to get a full dose of Reinsdorf because the White Sox' owner is the key player on the relocation committee that, after years of study, has finally decided the Expos belong in the District.
		What Reinsdorf will almost certainly tell the Executive Council -- every one of the eight owners thinking, "Jerry is speaking, but it's Bud talking" -- is that baseball ended up with a bunch of crummy or half-baked relocation options.

	Clean House (long) - White Sox Interactive Forums
		Reinsdorf and Co are the first owners of the White Sox who have had the full benefit of divisional playoffs, then wild card....this was designed to let teams stay in the race longer, then have a chance to get hot in the playoffs......under Reiney, we cant even get that right....
		As far as Manuel and Kenny Williams, they are Reinsdorf puppets who were hired to fall on the sword when Comiskey is empty and the team is going nowhere......in typical Reinsdorf fashion, if the mediocrity continues, they will eventually be gone......
		The bottom line is, the investors will tire of an empty ballpark and Reinsdorf terrible relationship with the fans, and then the time will be ripe for fresh blood to wipe the slate clean and there will be dancing in the streets in Chicago amongst White Sox fans....
