The clubhouse is the cancer.

maybe there's like asbestos in there or something

[Sammy Sofa]

And they won't talk to Theriot.

[treebird]

i would like this team a lot more if ryan theriot got mesothelioma and had no friends

[J.R.]

Having been on the tour once myself I can say that it's much, much nicer than what they had before. Subtle improvements in places, major changes in others.

 

So Ricketts gave them the sanctuary, and their infernal walk-up tunes ... START HITTING.

i bet the illegal mexican players were there but were just hiding because they don't want to mix with white americans.

I'm sure you feel you've got a good reason to dislike Theriot, but why would you wish cancer on anyone? Maybe it's because I've seen too many people die with the disease, but I don't find any kind of "humor" in this. Dislike someone all you want, but don't wish cancer on anyone.

Tree, you monster.

The cancer bit? It was edgy, it was not my sort of thing but some of those people out there, they really liked it.

Like who?

 

What about that guy that yelled out?

[Sammy Sofa]

HE HAD CANCER.

I bet Magic Johnson didn't say that.

[Sammy Sofa]

He seems to be doing great.

Yeah, I took the tour last May and remember the tiny weight room that used to be where the lux-o lounge is now. Big improvement.

 

Two amusing bits about the clubhouse ...

 

1) There used to be (still is?) a net attached to the ceiling right outside the door to the lounge area. The players would drop the net, lower a plywood board to cover up a flat-screen mounted on the wall, and actually take cuts right in the middle of the clubhouse.

 

And ... 2) all of the doors between the clubhouse and the dugout are battered, dented, and bruised from what are obviously kicks and punches made by players.

 

For anyone who hasn't taken the Wrigley Field tour, I highly recommend it. Best $25 I've spent. It's not everyday that one gets to check out the inner workings of a 100-year old baseball mecca, and who knows how long it'll be around.

You get to go in the Cubs clubhouse -- can you at least take a better video?

Magic is HIV. Also, South Park already showed that he injected concentrated cash into his bloodstream to cure AIDS.

Not from laughing, I'm sure.

[Sammy Sofa]

But he always looks so happy.
