Luckily they didn't win the World Series so Bigfan couldn't bitch about a celebration

Guessing they wouldnt have had an entire weekend + celebration 10 years later.

I do love that every media person has praised them for putting on a really nice production. LOL

The Journey Cover Band, or was it the Night at the Chicago theatre that drew 500 losers, so the guys could have a golf outing today to remember it all....

Bring it on, I enjoy the festivities. Next years 11 year Celebration is going to rock!

Lennie Merullo was honored by the Chicago Cubs at a June 2014 game, throwing out the ceremonial first pitch and leading the crowd in “Take Me Out to the Ballgame” during the seventh-inning stretch, part of the many events marking Wrigley Field’s 100th anniversary.

Even the most long-suffering Cubs fans might have had only vague memories of Merullo. He spent seven seasons as a Cubs infielder, playing mostly during the World War II years when many front-line ballplayers were in military service, and was never an All-Star. But he enjoyed a distinction that would elude hundreds of other Cubs who played at Wrigley in the last seven decades.

Merullo, who died on Saturday at 98 in Reading, Mass., played shortstop for the 1945 Cubs, the franchise’s last pennant winner, and was the last surviving ballplayer to have worn a Cubs uniform in a World Series.

Zippy

I stated this was a joke. It was an attempt to distract from the bad play for a full season. Never gave the props for it....the cermonies attached it even sucked...so, lets not say I dont rip the Cubs for the same Bullshit that the Sox did this year....

Yet something still weird about calling themselves the Champs. I mean you are the champs until the next season...assuming you dont win.
