    If you think seats are crammed in at Wrigley, you should go to Fenway (if you haven't already). I had to tuck my legs back under my own seat because my knees wouldn't fit in front of me. After that experience, the seats at Wrigley feel quite spacious. Wrigley should aspire to better than "oh, hey, we're a preferable option to the other old dump."

    The lower deck is angled optimally as-is. I concede that the 400/500 seating farther down the lines leaves much to be desired, but that's exactly the kind of problem a thoughtful renovation can address. No one builds 60,000 seat ballparks anymore. No one wants to pay a premium to sit a mile away from the action with the kind of in-home viewing options available today. There's a huge middle ground between 60,000 and squeezing in around 42,000.

    Maybe because he looks like a fat baby when he's naked?

    "Intimate seating" can also be code for just how uncomfortably so many of the seats are positioned to cram in as many as possible, or even just how the seats themselves mostly suck. Couple that with the obstructed views and how relatively few seats they have vs. how much they could actually fill and things have to change.

    Bricks, ivy, scoreboard, marquee sign; beyond those things I really have trouble understanding people who cling the rest of Wrigley. I mean, how can anyone not see that it's an outdated dump that's literally falling down?

    Ditto.

    Any chance Rizzo could end up in LF? Or would that just be bad news?

    why the [expletive] are people booing crane kenney? if i ever go to a cubs convention in 20 years and crane kenney is still working for the cubs, i'm going to give him a standing ovation while everyone else is booing. For a long while I was leading the charge against misinformed idiots hating on Crane Kenny. But at a certain point I'm inclined to believe that where there's smoke, there's fire... and there's been a hell of a lot of smoke from even the respected beat writers. So why can't all of these journalistic stalwarts find any fire besides "HE HAS HIS OWN UNIFORM" or "HE HIRED THE GREEK PRIEST" or "CLOWN KENNEY IS A NICKNAME I JUST USED" OR "I DON'T LIKE HIM"? The Kenney meme took off so they're placating the meatheads that eat that [expletive] up. There always has to be a scapegoat.

    Wait, there might be something to that.

    Then the man is a [expletive] hero.

    But it's 2012.

    He's sucked this year, but Noah was hurt during the game tonight.

    This is hilarious.

    Let our distaste for WSR unite us and not divide us, gentlemen.

    I think he just outed Demaryius Thomas as the Antichrist.

    I guess; but if there's nothing to it then why would the story going public effectively force them to say they want to question him? Why couldn't they say something like "we've investigated the matter and it's closed" or something along those lines? It could be (and I'm stressing could be here) a matter of trying to make it look like they take all accusations of sexual assault seriously and after it finally did leak they felt they could just say "it's closed" even if they don't see it going anywhere. Yeah, that's true. Good point.

    No J-Date? I see how it is.
