Bottom line: For Cubs, moving preferable to losing
It was 28 years ago that the Illinois Supreme Court shut the Cubs out from playing night games at Wrigley Field, upholding a state law and city ordinance that banned the use of lights at the ballpark. "We're obviously disappointed in the outcome, and it...

Sure, blame the Greek White Sox fan for Wrigley goat head prank
Whenever ethnic profiling raises its ugly head, you can usually count on a great newspaper to express its outrage. Unless the head once belonged to a goat, and said head was sent to Wrigley Field in care of Chicago Cubs owner Tom Ricketts. Then the...

Rosemont makes a play for Cubs, but they'd rather play the clown
I’m still waiting for confirmation from the Elias Sports Bureau, but I believe that Tom Ricketts now leads the Chicago Owners League in negotiating errors. It’s hard to think he surpassed Michael McCaskey in such a short time, but the...

Emery needs to strengthen Bears offensive line

Forget playing better, Cubs need to trade better
Cubs manager Dale Sveum and team president Theo Epstein believe the Cubs will take a big step forward this season, and I’m thinking, I guess losing only 90 games would be a big step. Another 100 losses, however, is easily attainable, don’t...

Cubs, Jackson should buckle up for bumpy ride
Watching the Cubs' annual opening exercise at Wrigley Field, an event lessened by Chicago politics and low expectations, there was plenty of time to wonder about a question that applies on both sides of town: WWBVD. What would Bill Veeck do? I'm...

It's time for Wrigley Field scoreboard to …
Go ahead. Get the tar and feathers. Or I'll stack the wood and bring the matches. Not being a Chicagoan by birth, I know I should just stay away from your sentimentality. If you think ketchup on a hot dog is an act of subversion, so be it. I'm not...
