The Cubs and Wrigley are inextricably tied. If you want to take that away from them, you might as well just go root for the Twins.

 

Ok. :wave:

 

He was talking about the Minnesota Twins, not the Coors ones.

I think I bring this up every year, but I've always loved the idea of a potential lakefront stadium (maybe on Northerly Island), but it just wouldn't be practical with the wind/cold in April/October, I guess.

 

Would be spectacular from about late May-Sept, though.

I don't think October has been a problem for a while now.

I always thought of it cubs:wrigley as greeks:parthenon. or even egyptians:pyramids.

Knew that was coming.

 

Sometimes you just have to take that flat curve deep.

 

I was bummed when the ivy turned brown when the Cubs were playing the Marlins as it normally looks so beautiful out there.

Heh. You would've never guessed it was October for Game 3 last year.

White Sox fans are relishing this idea simply because they think that no Cubs fans would come if the games weren't at Wrigley.

Ludicrous, the Cubs would still outdraw the Sox, and by a fair margin.

A lot of people here try to make it just about the baseball, and for better or worse, it's never just about the baseball with the Chicago Cubs. I love that my team's park is Wrigley Field and our games are on WGN. The Cubs transcend baseball in a lot of ways. I'll be glad to see the drought lifted, absolutely, but when we lose Wrigley Field and nationally televised games, then we're just another team, and I don't want to be part of "just another team." Then we're the Colorado Rockies, the Texas Rangers, or worst, the other White Sox.
