All I do is donate a dollar a day to FR and all you do is post this in News.

Seeing Ernie Banks ride a float in the Gay Pride Parade ended my lifelong support of the Cubs. Not to mention, the Ricketts family is an ardent supporter of gay “marriage” and “gay rights”.
But the Ernie Banks thing just killed me...

Hmm - was this schmoe calling for the razing of Fenway before 2004, too?

Somebody has to lose. May as well be the Cubs. They’re good at it.

I think old quaint ballparks like Wrigley Field and Fenway Park should stay. And I say that as a Bostonian who would rather go to Camden Yards or even the dreaded Yankee Stadium to see a ballgame so that I can actually watch a game from a seat I can fit in without a pole in front of me with my car in an actual parking lot instead of wedged in back of a gas station in which I had to hand $40 and my car keys to some non-English speaking guy in a Bob Marley t-shirt and dreadlocks from some Caribbean island.

So WSJ pays people to write this drivel? Geez... If he believes half of what he wrote, he probably has a bag of frog eyes, chicken bones, bat crap, and a snip of hair from Babe Ruth hanging from the rear view mirror of his car to prevent accidents as well...

Though I usually skip sports threads, I clicked on this one only because it was from the WSJ. All I can say is that WSJ has really gone down hill if it is printing this kind of sentimental nonsense juxtaposed with quasi-superstition.

It ain’t the park, son. The team sucks swamp water. As a Mariners fan I ought to know.

Good article. All good things must come to an end. As a Pittsburgher, I grew up in walking distance of old Forbes Field where Honus Wagner played-- where I saw my first Pirates and Steeler Games torn down. It was somewhat sad, but honestly, Forbes Field was a dump... it needed to be torn down. Just like Wrigley needs to go.
Recently, the Pittsburgh Civic Arena (the Igloo) was demolished. I had many a fond memories of that place... the first time I ever tried ice skating... the Hornets, Penguins... college basketball... concerts from the Beatles to Sonny & Chere to Paul MaCarthy... but it was time. The building had outlived its usefulness.
Nostalgia is a great thing, but there is always a time to move on.

For all you north siders here. The last time the Cubs won it all, they played at Polk and Wood Streets, on the south side.

I got a Joey Votto bobblehead this past Saturday night at Great American BallPark. Sat in the *front row-w--w". 42K in attendance but lost to the Nats 2-1. Next night, Mother's Day, about 5K in attendance and Votto hits three homers.
When I lived in Lincoln Park, I'd take in 30-40 Cubs games a year but there was only one year (81) where the Cubs got into the playoffs. This is a great park and this Cohen writer is a real b*tcher for sure.

So that more taxpayers can be bilked for building a replacement?
