I agree that they need to put a team on the field that is worth a shit, but at the same time, I appreciate them realizing that the place is mainly a dump and would be improved with some major overhaul (not nickel and dime stuff each year). I'm all for an idea to tear the bitch down and move it somewhere else, but that's not going to happen so if you're stuck with the place, then improve it. Now, transferring the costs to the people going to the game? That's a separate debate, but at least Tommy realizes his park sucks.

I'm pretty sure the Trib realized it, too, when teh concrete started falling onto people's heads.

Hey look, my place is a dump too. How about you give me your money and I fix it up. And I'll even invite you over to play cards or watch a ball game or something. As long as you bring some beer and some type of food.

No matter how much money Yeti gives me, it's still Yeti who's coming over.

If TJ's analogy holds, you're probably bringing the hayseed and, possibly, the bologna sandwiches.

That's even more disappointing.

Your place doesn't drive the economy of a neighborhood.

But because my place doesn't drive the economy of a neighborhood, I also do not enjoy the economic benefits of driving the economy. And I defy you to suggest that a mere 10th (or even 1 percent) of what the Ricketts are asking for given to me wouldn't drive the Northfield and Northbrook economies.

There's some empty land in the Glen.  Build Wrigley II there and maybe the rest of the shops in the strip center here will get leased.  Tax revenues will increase!

But, then the restaurants and shops in Lakeview will see their revenue drop.  And their taxes as well.  So, it nets out?  Shit.

Fucking zero sum games!

You guys talking about moving the Cubs to the suburbs should be shot in the face with a ball of your own shit. Even if you're joking, I don't care.

I don't care where they move. They just better not go or stay anywhere on my dime.
