MacPhail confirmed what everybody with an ounce of sense figured out......The Tribune Company was using the Cubs to try and save their own financial ass.
Skimming.

i thought mike murphy always said that mcphail was telling the trib to continue the small payroll because " dad , win or lose they come every year" or something along those lines

He has some unique perspective though.

Not too many people have been GM or President of the Cubs.

i think you should read it. Its not really advice.

Article just confirms that blind FANBOY or FANGIRL loyalty is just fine.....until you graduate from grammar school.
