So, They Won’t Be Doing That

I guess we won’t have to destroy the Chicago Cubs after all. That little Jeremiah Wright trial balloon was popped like a bottle of champagne. Still, I’m sure Mr. Ricketts will figure out some way to make trouble. He appears to be a dedicated asshole who is prepared to spend 10 million dollars during the Democratic National Convention to make the most scurrilous attacks against the president. Last I checked, Chicago was not only a Democratic town, but the president’s hometown. If Democrats don’t show up at Wrigley because their owner is an intolerable dick, there are going to be plenty of empty seats.
