Smile Wrigley Field To Be Renamed!!!
The new owner of da CUBS, SAM ZELL wants to rename the "freindly confines" my 2 suggestions are, BARTMAN FIELD, and FRUIT OF THE LOOM FIELD. if it is the second choice he could also rename the team THE BREIFS [in an acknowledgement of their playoff history]

What's the matter? Wrigley not paying enough for the rights anymore? lol

I heard somebody complaining that they were "selling out" to corporate sponsorship and kindly reminded them that Wrigley was perhaps the first case of that very thing in a way.

You'd better name it the "Steve Bartman MEMORIAL Field".
