The Bright One's photo captions says --

QuoteJohn Murray, who attacked pitcher Randy Meyers in 1995 and is banned from Wrigley Field, is pictured with his trademarked slogan "It's Gonna Happen" shirt and caps.

-- suggesting he's still banned from Wrigley.

The article itself, though, says:

Quote"People know what happened, but with my words and my deeds, I've apologized," said Murray, in a why'd-you-have-to-go-there tone of voice. "That happened a dozen years ago. Believe me, it was embarrassing. It was a mistake I made. I'm glad it's behind me."

But do the Cubs realize that he's behind the "It's gonna happen" craze? Yes they do, says Murray, who also noted that he has "been getting free advertising from the Cubs, sitting in the bleachers with a banner."

...


Does this mean the Cubs have forgiven Murray? McDonough was not available for comment. But Mike Lufrano, Cubs senior vice president of community affairs, indicated that the organization views Murray as just another fan.

"[The Myers incident] happened 12 years ago," Lufrano said. "Like many fans who come to the park, we've seen his signs, and it's a slogan about our team that fans are enthusiastic about.

...

"I've been going to Wrigley Field since I was 11, and I've seen a lot of heartbreak," Murray said. "But it's gonna happen. If not this year, then next year."

And he sure looks like the same d-bag that appears in the SI photo holding up his bullshit sign in the ballpark.

But, if he's such an enthusiastic Cub fan, why did he use the Red Sox font?  Why?  WHY?!

Maybe I'm just mad that I didn't think of it first.  After all, I've been going to Wrigley since I was three, and I've seen a lot of heartbreak.  Maybe I should think of a slogan, paint it in White Sox font, and show it at the Aug. 1 game that I have tickets for.

"I'ts Your Turn", maybe?

But how will people know "douche" is meant to be a noun and not a verb?

I heard the moran on Gary Meier's show this morning.  He apparently was banned from Wrigley for 1 year.  He also said, 'I'm sorry for running on the field' about 432 times.  He's still a douche though.
Andre Dawson paid his $1,000 fine for the Joe West incident with style. Dawson wrote ``Donation for the blind`` in the memo section of his personal check.

Exclamate'd.  It both emphasizes the noun and makes the verb imperative.  It's simplicity and elegance remain undiminished.

So, apparently his talents are sloganeering and being a douche.
