just dont go back and forth about religion. im not taking sides on that, but it isnt really something that we should be talking about in here.

agreed. well there are 3 year old town homes a block away that were going for 650,000 3 years ago that are on the foreclosure list. ehhh that would be dreaming, plus my wife will have none of that.
lol I hear you.
what's made the Dan Ryan so bad? I haven't been on it or in Chicago for a few years now, so I'm kind of out of the loop on things.

Think about it though, they can essentially build the new one with the marquee, the scoreboard, the original field dimensions, the ivy etc. It'd just be in a different place that is also accessible by public transit and wouldn't be constricted by Waveland and Sheffield. It'd be like a fortress of awesome.

construction and 7:10 start times when you are battling the traffic during rush hour to get there. if you leave early and tail gate its easy, but if you are just going to catch the game, it blows ass.

LOL at this. I never claimed to be a "man of my faith" whatever the hell that means. I mentioned I was Catholic. I joke around about Catholicsm a lot. I never even took a dig at your faith, as I didn't know anything about it. If anything I took a jab at my own as a joke and you got all bent out of shape then took at a shot at my faith by saying you were "a real Christian" as if Catholics aren't.
But yeah, let's not let details and facts get in the way of your temper tantrum.

My friend had a pretty slick idea to install a Jumbotron too. Instead of the manual scoreboard (donate it to the Smithsonian or something), you have a jumbotron that's shaped like the original scoreboard that has animations of the guys changing the numbers manually, then it can fade into a replay every now and then before going back to the default image of the scoreboard.
Barring that, get rid of the ugly Toyota sign and turn it into the Wrigley Field Replay Board presented by United, Toyota and Best Buy.

He didnt spend 135 million on this team. Last owner did and he just bought into it. Honestly do you see Ricketts keeping up this kind of payroll having to pay back Bank loans, and keep up with Wrigley field? I dont so Cub fans will have to deal with shitty teams until he pays off bank loans etc. So again Cub fans will have to suffer through it. We all know if Cuban bought team he would have spent the money to win WS

Cuban wouldn't have paid so much for the team to begin with. The Tribune laughed all the way to the bank on this sale to the Ricketts hehehe.

I'm still waiting for pood to explain why he is so confident the Cubs will land Fielder.

stating to Bruce Levine (sarcasm) that the cubs are looking into Fielder is totally different than actually making a 100% effort to sign the FA. Of course we are going to hear the cubs are going after fielder/pujols along with others...it is just PR making sure the fans think the cubs are trying.

I guess I don't immediately think that way about scheming anything.
I will say this.. If they don't do anything significant.. Wrigley will be very empty next season.

It's not a matter of opinion. Soto had a .890 OPS. Poseys was like .862. Soto was clearly better. Than all of them. Even Mauer.
