Hey idiots, it's Wrigley, not "Wrigey". You used to own the motherfucker. Could you figure it out?

The weekday Tribune is now $1.50. Weighing in at about 3 ounces (unscientifically), the Trib is now more expensive than industrialized silver.

Rick, we're not just talking about a couple broads from Albuquerque here and there. We're talking about buses from Iowa and Minnesota, baseball fans from Japan and Puerto Rico, probably hundreds of thousands of people each year that won't be going to Rosemont. Is that gonna be made up by IMU going to a couple more games? I doubt it. The canard here is the concept that the Cubs start each sesson at a competitive disadvantage due to Wrigley, when, in fact, they begin with a huge sdvantsge because of it.


Glass houses...

:P

:lol: Nice, Peeps, but I'm typing a message board post with an Android keyboard not editing a 14 point subheader on the front page of a major metro daily.

Just a typo. Probably a rush job done by the only copy editor they have. Probably some art burrito from Columbia College who wouldn't know Wrigley Field from Grant's Tomb. The Sun-times used to regularly cut off the last line of nearly every story. Newspapers have been doing this shit for decades.

That being said, you'd think they'd @ least try to put a little more quality into their work, considering how much they charge people for the rag.
