Solid comment, but I think HE thinks he’s doing it because he’s a big fan. Whether that’s actually true remains to be seen.

So let’s say he wins the bidding and the Cubs don’t win this year. But then he spends like crazy next year, and the Cubs finally win it all.

How is Cuban received then? As a hero? Or does the style by which he won things taint the championship?

It will be the end of an era in American sports if Cuban gets the Cubs.

The Cubs have been America’s Team for 100 years precisely because they AREN’T owned by a Steinbrenner or Huizinga or a corporation. They haven’t allowed wife beaters and drunk drivers and tattooed rappers and drug users on the team just because they can hit.

Why does Cuban want to buy the Cubs? So he can be the caretaker of OUR club?

No . . . HE wants it to make it HIS club. Sure, he’ll “fix” it for us (Thanks, Mark), but does anyone really believe he is buying this club for America, the fans, kids or for any other reason than because he wants to have fun with it?

In an era of clubs moving from city to city, egomaniacal owners trying to buy rings and squads being broken apart every 18 months, the Cubs are the last vestige of what pro sports used to be in America.

If Cuban gets the Cubs, it will be the end of an era.

I truly hope the Cubs win the World Series this year, before Cuban gets his hands on them and claims victory if they eventually win.

He wasn’t born in Chicago. He didn’t go to college in Chicago. He doesn’t live in Chicago.

Why, all of a suddn, does he LOVE the Cubs?

Cuban is about ego and money, and that’s what the Cubs will be about if he gets them. Gimmicks and fights with the league and embarrassing behavior.

Goodbye, Cubbies . . . thanks for great childhood memories and keeping the game real for as long as you did.
