John Schriffen, in his first year as the Chicago White Sox broadcaster, endured significant backlash from fans and media during a dismal 121-loss season for the team. Unlike Chairman Jerry Reinsdorf or Manager Pedro Grifol, it was Schriffen who became the focal point of criticism, notably for his passionate responses to comments from critics. As he started his second year, he reflected on the challenges he faced and expressed his determination to grow both personally and professionally while addressing how to win over critics moving forward.
"Last year was a huge growing year for me, not only as a broadcaster but as a person. I think it was a tough season because of what I walked into."
"I knew what the challenges were going to be. You have a team where we knew they weren't going to be very good."
