Ken Williams said Friday that while the White Sox still are giving free-agent outfielder Johnny Damon until Sunday morning to accept their last offer, negotiations have died. ''We're touching the opening of spring training, and you know how I am about spring-training distractions,'' Williams said. ''That's never a good thing. Never a good, productive thing for everyone to be watching the door. From the first day on, I want everyone pulling from the same rope. ''We asked for their bottom line, and obviously we underestimated on what the market is for him because we thought we were competitive with what the rumors were out there. With what we got back [Friday afternoon], unless Johnny sees this as a great opportunity for him, enjoys a chance to win in a great city, it's an unrealistic number [that] we got back from them.'' Williams wouldn't go into details, but the Sox are thought to be offering anywhere from $4.5 million to $6 million, including incentives and deferred money.
