  1. No. It is named for Wrigley the man himself. In no way other than the commonality of the name "Wrigley" is there any effort to sell Wrigley's chewing gum products: no Wrigley logos, advertisements, &c. People fail to get this. "Durr, Wrigley's a corporate name too." No, it isn't.
  2. yes I always thought of it cubs:wrigley as greeks:parthenon. or even egyptians:pyramids. A lot of people here try to make it just about the baseball, and for better or worse, it's never just about the baseball with the Chicago Cubs. I love that my team's park is Wrigley Field and our games are on WGN. The Cubs transcend baseball in a lot of ways. I'll be glad to see the drought lifted, absolutely, but when we lose Wrigley Field and nationally televised games, then we're just another team, and I don't want to be part of "just another team." Then we're the Colorado Rockies, the Texas Rangers, or worst, the other White Sox.
  3. The Cubs and Wrigley are inextricably tied. If you want to take that away from them, you might as well just go root for the Twins.
  4. Is there a way we can keep Dempster as an affable spokesman without putting him in situations where he can directly affect the outcomes of games?

  6. They're really scaling back the WGN coverage, huh. That's a shame.
  7. Why are you coming in contact with Sox fans? Where do you work, a meth lab? Stop talking to them.
  8. You thought right. The Wrigley Field naming rights imbroglio has really brought out Chicago's stupid.
  9. That superstation thing is nonsense. All of America deserves free Cubs baseball. Who am I kidding.
  10. I want Fuld to get the CF job over Pie. I think Fuld will be the superior hitter and fielder.
  11. Great, now I'll only have 33% of the time to make Jim Edmonds gay jokes.
  12. I wish the Cubs would wear blue socks with red stripes all the time. Awesome. The rest of that jersey just looks like they hadn't worked the kinks out yet.
  13. I don't think Muskat or musk rat or whatever is necessarily offensive. It's just a nickname. People get nicknames. Come on. The White Sox' beat writer is Scott Merkin. That makes the rat of musk seem not so bad.

  15. Rolen wouldn't complain! No no no. He just puts his head down and plays the game the white way.
  16. I agree When was the last time a new ballpark came out that was a cookie cutter? I'd say the last stadium built that was completely uninteresting as New Comiskey. Every stadium built or in the works since that stadium has at least a somewhat interesting design. Cookie-cutter isn't the right word for it, but Busch Stadium has really milked the "retro style with modern amenities!" teat bone-dry.
  17. So, will Cesar sneak up on Jim Edmonds to give him the ol' Aramis Ramirez Special, or will Jim ask for it himself?
  18. The K-orey and Rusch filters are still in place? Hah! North Side Baseball, where it's always 2004!
  19. Joe Nuxhall had already retired before Jeff Brantley came to stink up the 50,000-watt joint.
  20. Can Walker be had? I'd take him back.
  21. Lou Piniella played the most active role in turning his team into a playoff team. Bob Melvin babysat.
  22. It wouldn't be Wrigley without tall infield grass!
  23. I dunno, ask Scott Podsednik.
  24. Tampa : Tampa Bay :: Chicago : Chicagoland alternatively, Tampa : Tampa Bay :: San Francisco :: SF Bay Area hah!
