Plus, where's Jerry going to sell peanuts from now?

I'll clarify for a three year deal.

well, no, no it isn't. because, see, when you step into Wrigley, it's still actually 2007, not 1933. It's not a museum. The truth is, the Cubs have been extremely great about not simply tearing it down and building a luxury-suit riddled throwback park in Naperville, as that would actually keep them up with the other teams (as far as park revenue). let's not act like the cubs are doing us any big favors. these ads are embarrassing. our pristine ballpark is becoming a parody of its former self, and people like you are stepping up and telling others the cubs are being nice to us. as soon as the cubs figure out a way to swing it so that people won't get mad and they won't lose money, they'll start working on a new ballpark. I guess you haven't noticed how just about every other team in baseball has built a new ballpark, including the recently announced plans for a new yankee stadium. The Cubs are indeed doing us a favor by only putting Under Armor logos on the doors and not building Tribune Park out in Batavia Ridiculous. Just as many people go to games to experience Wrigley Field as go to experience a Cubs game. "Wrigley Field" is just as much of a draw, if not MORE than "The Cubs". which, many would argue, is the very reason the front office isn't compelled to put as much effort as they can into fielding a winning club, as the place will be packed one way or the other. Personally, I'd rather have a championship team than a quaint ballpark (if I had to choose one or the other). Don't get me wrong, I love Wrigley and don't want it to go away, but the fact that people go there just to go is a problem in many ways so you like the ads because they may upset the fans? what is the argument now? also, the whole "championship team over quaint ballpark" is just a waste of time. a few years from now, im pretty sure we're going to have neither. There is a big difference between "liking the ads" and "not caring about them". I fall into the 2nd category. Would I prefer they not be there? Sure, but I'm not getting my panties in a bunch about it now that it's happening ooooo what color are they

WE HAVE NOT WON SINCE 1908 WE WILL STILL NOT WIN AND WE'LL HAVE A CRAPPY BALLPARK INSTEAD OF A NICE ONE AND SOME GUY WHO LIVES IN LAKE FOREST WILL HAVE STOCK THAT'S WORTH A LITTLE MORE. HOO-*******-RAY! Well at least you can take solace in your assumed superior knowledge of all things Cub. Well at least you can fail at your arguments and therefore resort to attacking me like the jackass we all know you are.

Remind me to punch this guy in the face. Yeah, I read that. That may be the most idiotic thing i've ever seen. Seriously...does that work on anyone? Is anyone convinced that this partnership is being done to "develop a winning culture"? Would anyone be any more offended if they came out and said, "under Armor offered us $3 million. We figured, 'Hey, what the hell. We always sell out anyway, so screw it.' Thus, you get to look at ads." I, personally, would be less offended.

Remind me to punch this guy in the face.

Remember when they said it was gonna be an open dining area for anyone in the bleachers to watch the game from the batter's eye? That was a ******* laugh.

?? That better just be worded badly. Nah, it'll spread eventually, I'm sure. Anything that can't be changed due to historic preservation laws isn't safe, as I said last year when I got all pissed off about the Bud Light bleachers

I hate this ******* organization sometimes.

5/28 vs. Florida

The first step is admitting you have a problem.

depends if i come home drunk again

Brian, lets become Brewer's fans!!! But you have to drive me up to Milwaukee. I'm never in any condition to drive back after games up there. Hell, with all the renovations, it will probably be quicker than taking the L to Wrigley. I heard the red line travel times will double on the Northside starting in April.

I also saw a report that he had an approach similar to [insert lefty starter here]

I'd refer to myself as Captain Moneypants.

I'll tell you what I don't want: puff pieces.

im sure people said the same thing about Maddux in 92 They didn't trade Maddux though. People wouldn't be nearly so bent on the Maddux situation if we had, say, Chipper Jones to show for it. i know we didnt trade him but he was pretty much told we can get more players in the amount it would cost us for you. Those players didnt do much of anything to remember I think it's disingenuous to say that this situation is analogous to Maddux.

I'm appalled.

god be praised
