Cosign. I disagree with the poster who suggested the new stadium be built in the suburbs. Wrigleyville is as big a part of going to a Cubs game as Wrigley. No need to do away with that as well. Raze Wrigley and rebuild on the same spot. Cubs can play at Soldiers Field for a year or two.
I couldn't agree more. A GM that knows what he's doing is the by far the most important piece of a winning club. If you have a smart GM, you'll likely find that you have an owner willing to spend money.
When we "pulled out" on Peavy, everybody talked about how it was understandable given that starting pitching is a luxury for us. Why are we now talking about Lowe? If we're going to add a SP then it should be because a great opportunity presented itself and we'd be foolish to pass it up; not because we have battered-wife syndrome from last October. Forget Lowe. Sign Bradley.
For the guy who was asking, I just registered my one personal e-mail address. Just dumb luck that i got picked. Although, I like to think the Cubs did me a favor given how much money I've dumped on tickets over the years...
