beardown3231 Posted September 8, 2018 Share Posted September 8, 2018 Saw the following on a Sox message board I'm on: Rumor is Eddie Jackson may not play tomorrow. He apparently posted on Instagram that someone in his family passed away and he's been back in Florida for the last 2-3 days. Can anyone who's on IG confirm this? I haven't seen anything from the Bears or any of the Tribune or ST writers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heinz D. Posted September 8, 2018 Share Posted September 8, 2018 I'm not on Instagram, but wouldn't it have been announced by now if he was missing the game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superman(DH23) Posted September 8, 2018 Share Posted September 8, 2018 Only thing on IG is a card could be mom, or go from 18 hours ago wishing him luck this weekend. I'd say this is a nothingburger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say this is a nothingburger Can you rephrase this in English? Are you saying it's a card from his mom wishing him luck? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superman(DH23) Posted September 8, 2018 Share Posted September 8, 2018 I can't really tell the gif is so fast could be his mom or his sister or a gf. Wearing his Jersey. Pretty sure its mom but looks very young and pretty. Says something like I was going to write you to wish you lots of luck this season but I remebered....have learned and grown so much you dont need it. So I'll wish you lots of success instead.

beardown3231 Posted September 8, 2018 Author Share Posted September 8, 2018 But the issue is that according to that IG story, he was in FL as of yesterday night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superman(DH23) Posted September 8, 2018 Share Posted September 8, 2018 I see nothing to indicate he was in Florida. But even if he was we live in a world with airplanes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope I'm wrong. It just seems odd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your rumor is bogus, and Friday is not install, Friday is walk thru. If you are going to miss a practice, the Friday walk thru is the one to miss. But again I see nothing that says that he missed any practice this week. Certainly nothing on his IG about a family funeral or anything really.

HuskieBear Posted September 8, 2018 Share Posted September 8, 2018 yeah, it looks like it might be his gf sending him a card saying "i was going to wish you good luck but then i remembered you don't need it blah blah blah" (hard to read). Nothing to indicate he's in florida. he also just posted an hour ago on his story laughing and talking to someone in a car, so it seems hard to believe he's somewhere mourning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw it on a White Sox message board and brought it here, inquiring if anyone has IG to confirm. That same person on that board said he posted a story last night and the location was FL which is why it wouldn’t be there today for any indication. Once again I hope I’m wrong.

beardown3231 Posted September 8, 2018 Author Share Posted September 8, 2018 That same poster on the Sox board just posted: “That rumor got deleted on Reddit. There goes that.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
