    Is part of that because he was hoping to play again?
  2. cbbryan
    Iowa State hanging in there against the Buckeyes.
  3. cbbryan
    He'd be great. Comcast Sportsnet Chicago should have called a long time ago.
  4. cbbryan
    Looks like a no, for the time being.

    I hope the Illini bring their A game tomorrow and shoot great, at least make it a game against Miami.

    Syracuse blew my 3 game parlay by a point.

    How is Cal within 13 of the Orange, they're getting run out of the gym.

    I like Jones a ton. He's versatile too, could play either G or C. I would worry about his health, but I'm sure NFL teams will be well informed about that before making a pick.

    Can't say I'm really surprised that Gonzaga is the first #1 gone.

    As a Chuck, I'm glad I'm not a John.
  11. cbbryan
    HAHAHA!
  12. cbbryan
    Worst thing about this Gonzaga/Wichita St. game is Doug Gottlieb!
  13. cbbryan
    Bye bye Butler. Terrible last shot.
  14. cbbryan
    Yeah, I don't know why Clarke threw that junk up with 5 secs left.
  15. cbbryan
    Butler gets a call there, looked like Jones just tripped...

    Marquette takes the lead for the first time at 60-58. Fairly good game all of a sudden.
  17. cbbryan
    +1

    Hope they can fit Lance Louis back under the cap. I don't know what his projected money looks like, although I wouldn't think it would be that much coming off an injury. He was probably the most consistently (good) OL for the Bears before getting hurt.

    Butler's on a roll now. Hope Marquette can pull it close again, get a decent game.

    Should I feel safe putting Garza and Headley on the DL?
  21. cbbryan
    Speaking of assertions solely made to fit a narrative I think it's fair to look at fan attendance. It is true that Cubs games tend to sell very well, regardless of the location of the game. Once again, I don't want the Cubs to move to Rosemont. It would be my preference that Wrigley is revamped and restrictions on games were lifted, but I can certainly see the benefits to moving the team if Tunney and the rooftops want to hold up progress.

    A park and a parking lot Depends on how they do the parking. If they were to build parking garages instead of an open parking lot, I would think they'd have room to build a few businesses. Maybe I'm overestimating the possibilities. Edit: Just an example, the Twins new Target Field is built on an 8 acre plot. Why couldn't the Cubs do something similar? It's a baseball team, they aren't going to be building an amusement park and car wash. I'm talking about restaurants, bars, team shop, etc. A new "Wrigleyville" area that is essentially owned entirely by the Cubs. What are the yearly revenues of the businesses directly surrounding Wrigley (that profit from the Cubs popularity) and what would it do for the Cubs to add that revenue to the club?
  23. cbbryan
    This is an assertion without evidence. You're making Wrigley the sole reason that Cubs draw better than other teams for no other reason than the fact that it fits your preferred narrative. I'd love to hear a more plausible rival hypothesis. Anyway, there's plenty of evidence. Why do they continue to be one of the best draws on the road? Cubs tickets are a premium ticket in SD, or ATL, or Houston...they'd certainly have no problems in Rosemont.

    Done deal per this website. 1 year/$715K http://www.spotrac.com/nfl/chicago-bears/tom-zbikowski/ Cheap depth.

    As I stated above, I don't believe the Cubs will move in the end. That said, if they were to move, I believe they could open up diverse revenue streams with 25 acres to work with. It may be an area that no one cares about now, but it's hard to argue fans wouldn't follow the Cubs to Rosemont. We're not talking about 25 free acres in Iowa.
