I feel you couldn't just be Big Business just to be that way or claim Chicago and Chicagoland when your marrying into their family. That is not how it works and the fortunes and misfortunes of the Chicago Cubs run home, too.
I feel in hindsight, the Chicago Cubs sale HAD to be done. But, I feel there are warrantless scars on areas that need the Championship Success or any success to arbit numbers. Even though the Pennant Happened, but, in reality, having a cursed franchise means near misses are anything but rational (Cubs vs. Red Sox 2003 World Series Near Miss), or how Bartman and Grady Little caused a tear through space and time.
It is how the deal was done that left scars. Illinois in 2009 had the Summer be the Hottest, and to make life worse, they where thinking in the sense of "Oh Boy, Money!" like other equities didn't matter. And, that is not the issue here.
And, the boyish joys of 108 are wearing out and I feel the next chance the Chicago Tribune, WGN and the Chicago Cubs come up individually, they'd come up as one. One because you'd need responsible Local Sports and Media and you'd need to remoore the Tribune-WGN Beat like Sun Times-Sports Channel Beat, which the MLB had to explicitly interchange, to the fans chagrin even today.
I feel there has to be a return here somewhere about replacing Wrigley Field and the challenge is having to be above the Red Line in split territory.
