Yep. The big plan to blow up most of Wrigley (or the park at Clark and Addison soon to be called the Park-Formerly-Known-As Wrigley Field) has been announced.
- They'll sell the naming rights
- They'll eff with the big red Iconic Sign - seems there's a loophole that the "Sign" is a landmark and protected, but the "letters" aren't. (*ssholes)
- There going to blow the whole thing up, except for the scoreboard and the frame of the Red Sign.
- While under re-construction, the Cubs have two choices
- 1) Spread out the construction over 3 seasons
- 2) Do it all at once, and share U.S. Cellular Field with the White Sox Nation. - Jerry has not yet been asked, so don't tell him. I can't wait to see the look on his face!

This is the game with red-stitched ball, right? The one for whichthat goofball who needs a haircut made a documentary?
Am no huge fan of the game, but I cannot imagine that fans all over the nation are not going to have a big problem with this.
Seems that the organisation of baseball will have a hard time selling their "Field of Dreams" America's pastime bullsh*t when it comes out what they're allowing in order to make a buck/
Where else are they going to play if there's a $250M reconstruction project? Schaumburg....Milwaukee...?? They'll have to play at the Joan, whether Shecky Reinsdorf likes it or not
Well that's the fun part - Jerry doesn't know, nor has been asked.
But since the STATE will be buying Wrigley - and the STATE owns the Joan - I doubt Jerry even has a SAY in it.
Funny.
