  1. The trip itself is not the issue for me - the timing is. If the owner of the Chicago Cubs doesn't think the season is worth sticking around for, then what the hell are we doing here?
  2. Does the President go on vacation in the middle of a crisis?
  3. He's distracted. http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/baseball/cubs/ct-spt-0626-haugh-carlos-zambrano--20100625,0,5203584.column
  4. Perhaps he could be available for comment, saving the organization the indignity of having the press dissect his associates' Twitter feeds in search of some kind of reaction. If not a Zambrano blowup, then it could be (God forbid) an accident of some kind at the ballpark, or perhaps the unveiling of a wart over the bleachers or a noodle in the players' lot. He was ushered in with the promise of being a new face for the organization in lieu of what went on in the Tribune years, but of late he's doing his best PK Wrigley imitation - hard-to-reach and eccentric (who in the [expletive] goes on a safari anyway?)
  5. Ricketts' folks sure are taking care of business while the boss sits on the other side of the world. Incidents like today are why the chairman needs to be within reach during the season.
  6. It seems clear that he was mad at himself as well.
  7. I like it. Not that Lee deserved what he got, but it's about [expletive] time that someone with standing in this organization showed the kind of rage that I've been feeling for weeks.
  8. Yeah, nobody needs a beautiful, profitable ballpark! [expletive] great places that people will pay money to see!
  9. Teddy, time to man up and give up nothing.
  10. Lots of revisionist history going around it seems.
  11. http://www.jerichoschools.org/hs/library/africa.gif So much to see! And do! Lou who?
  12. I think a sleep-obliterating rage is more likely in the cards.
  13. The New Jersey Nets could fold tomorrow and no one would notice. They still have hockey in Buffalo?
  14. Ricketts could easily conduct the offseason business in absentia. He should be here now to suffer through the [expletive] with the rest of us. It's awfully convenient for him to duck out and go across the world while the dreams of those with whom he slapped backs and guffawed at the Cubs Convention are being shattered daily. The move smacks of apathy.
