Cubs broke my heart in '69. I gave quit caring in '84. But I am glad I don't have to hear or see Chicago media talking about this petulant millionaire anymore!

I think in a couple of years the new owners and Theo will have the Cubs being perennial contenders again. I hate to predict a world series because...well...they're the Cubs.
But I do think they're going about it the right way. Developing their own players and jettisoning the over priced, under performing players. Can anybody say Alfonso Soriano?
