So the Chicago Cubs have lost 10 games in a row. Do you think it might

9. Decades Of Mismanagement...continues...

The Ricketts bought a team that was a mess...lots of big money contracts for over-the-hill players and a crumbling ballpark. The Ricketts have spent the last two years trying to dump the big payroll and try to built from scratch. What you have is a minor league team with an ownership that was learning on the job and now have hired a big money GM who will need years to rebuild not just the major league club but the farm system as well.

The Ricketts controversy hurts as the team is hoping city of Chicago and state of Illinois will come up with the 150 million or more to rebuild that deteriorating ballpark. By pissing off Rahm, Quinn and other Illinois Democrats Ricketts will be lucky to get voice mail yet their calls answered.

The big thing to watch is the attendence. Will Cubbie fans put up with an owner who will spend 10 million to slime the President rather than go out and buy a player or two to help the club. Will they continue to flock to the "friendly confines" like lemmings; spending upwards of $400 a ticket to see a losing team?? Losing 10 in a row only underscores how awful this team is...
