It really all began with the story of chunks of Wrigley Field falling down. Emperor Daley found that quite bothersome. It has now escalated into a tit-for-tat war.

I must admit, I'm having a blast watching this while munching on some popcorn. It's like a movie or soap opera or something!

1. Daley demand proof of Wrigley repairs

2. Daley tells Tribune Co. to prove it

3. Daley accues Trib of retaliation

4. City Halts WGN Work

Well MIB, how do you think it looks if you are Mayor and a fan at Wrigley is killed because of wear and tear? Not good.

It's nice to see the Cubs and the city taking this seriously......and actually trying to fix something before something bad happens first.

I hope they really are taking it seriously and not just playing "bang and blame" games. Neither party strikes me as altruistic.

One more dead Cubs fan isn't so bad. eek!


Now, now, before all you killjoys start blowing your pink little tops over that comment, it wasn't a serious one. Only die-hard White Sox fans would truly understand that, so, in the words of a first lady wannabe, "Shove it!"


I don't know, Illini, where you ever got the idea that I was somehow against inspecting Wrigley. I started this thread because it's just damn amusing to see all this go on here. Every day there's a new story about the Daley vs. Tribune War.

"Bang and blame"??? I haven't heard that phrase used since the last sex party I went to...uh, wait. Never mind. Wrong thread.
