Oh absolutely, it's freaking insane reckless and dickish behavior more typical of a Cardinals player. I was more answering the "can't understand the viewpoint" party of the question. -
Really? Every group of top level performers is littered with drugs. alright, slow down with your broad strokes there wolf of wall street. i doubt the top high school math teacher in new hampshire is mixing uppers and downers to keep level during a grueling section on polynomial functions anyway, it's not the presence of the drugs that surprise me; anyone who has ever known a pro or semi pro baseball player knows that they're collectively responsible for like 20% of the country's total consumption of weed. but that doesn't make it any less nuts that someone can be successful doing complex baseball things while being fat as hell or nursing a blow habit or whatever I just don't see what's so nuts about it, especially when we've seen the story repeated time and time again.

A lot of times drug use is associated with something going on inside the head of a time and since I don't know if he has issues mentally I can't judge a man for that and the dude still seemed pretty cool so it still sucks. And he's still a great talent who we won't see anymore and that sucks too. There are a lot of scenarios where I don't care about coke in the system and few where I do. I can't understand this viewpoint, and it is becoming more and more common. Someone help me. Using cocaine does not make you a bad person who deserves to have bad things happen to them. A lot of people will hear "coke in his system" and automatically write somebody off as garbage who deserved whatever happened. Somebody can be shot and killed and if it comes back that they had a drug in their system people will blame the person who got shot for getting shot because a lot of people are dumb.

Taking a photo with a player and a jersey doesn't exactly do anything. But I think the guy's history has made clear he's a Cubs fan, and attending a Sox game doesn't disprove that at all either. you're purposefully trying to ruin my intentionally feeble attempt at humor, aren't you? I am running on fumes (of my eroding liver) right now and do not think I am capable of doing anything with purpose

his fan status was questioned last night Taking a photo with a player and a jersey doesn't exactly do anything. But I think the guy's history has made clear he's a Cubs fan, and attending a Sox game doesn't disprove that at all either.

There's a difference between day boating and night boating. Even sober night boating is very dangerous. Buoys and other markings are very tough to find. Add speed to the occasion and you are asking for trouble. Add cocaine and alcohol and you have a death wish, which probably explains all the people trying to talk him and others out of going. That was probably the routine, which is akin to Russian roulette.

its' not like they are hurting for alumni to drive interest and if/when it ever happens it will require PR work that they probably have no interest in dealing with right now. The bold pretty much addresses this. There's no massive PR work. No one has to do horsefeathers. And the idea that Kerry Wood might be swinging a big dick around Chicago right now strikes me as funny. Kerry is about to go from favorite son to guy that threw a great meaningless game once. agree to disagree the 20k, winning NLDS, homerun in playoffs and return from injury as solid closer along with stating he felt he owed the team money already cemented his future. The fact that he has so aggressively celebrated this team can only solidify his reputation.

All they have to do is have Kerry Wood say "Sammy is welcome to come back whenever he wants." If they get the guy that smashed his boom box to welcome him back, I don't see who's going to question the motives or particularly care that it hasn't happened already. I doubt Kerry Wood signed up for such a job.

He must have done something bad that wasn't reported that burned serious bridges. The fans from what I've seen generally either want him welcomed back or are indifferent. He had a lot of warts, but I believe he had a net positive impact on the Cubs organization. He is not the biggest reason, but I think he is a small reason why the Cubs are a nationally relevant team, and an entire generation of fans who are now in their early-30's grew up idolizing Sammy. Yeah it makes no sense. He should be brought back and is an important part of the teams history, especially with a ton of current fans. Like you said, something bad/ridiculous must have happened sometime in 2004 that has never gotten out that he's been blacklisted. nah the most likely story is they hated him and Ricketts buys into the "shame" of steroids and whatnot. The holdovers still hate him, ricketts sees little upside in bringing him back and the new crew isn't wasting their time pushing for the other side.
