    Tom Ricketts looks a whole lot like Michael McCaskey.

    Just sayin.

    Cuban offered what, $1.2 billion a few months ago (and another group topped a billion too, I think). But hey, it's not like the Trib needs money.

    Yes this is a bad joke, but ....

    100 years without a World Series title, and now the Cubs get the Ricketts. Yes, there is a curse. [/ducking]

    Sounds like this guy has the perfect pedigree to continue the team's century-old tradition.

    Oh, they'll get one. They'll win the 2012 World Series. Of course, those of us who are up on our Nostradamus predictions know what will happen two months later.....
