Having seen Charles Eshelman’s photo of the sneering, technocratic face of the Illinois Sports Facilities Authority executive director, Peter Bynoe, which was used to introduce Michael Miner’s Hot Type for August 10; and recalling every obstacle that this one man has placed in the way of White Sox fans who have labored, in vain it would appear, to save Comiskey Park from the wrecker’s ball; and noting, too, the fact that for all his dedication to the project of staving off every attempt to save Comiskey Park, Bynoe has enjoyed the prestige of title, material compensation, and, finally, a ticket into the elite club of sports franchise owners, all of which have been awarded to him by the powers-that-be in the sports industry for a job well-done; I couldn’t help but recall some words from James Aronson’s essay in the Senator Gravel Edition of the Pentagon Papers.
