Here Comes Preparation H Stadium at Wrigley Field
Per the Sun-Times:
"The Wrigley renovation would be financed by bonds retired by increased stadium revenues -- everything from naming rights, sponsorships and concessions to clubs seats and additional skyboxes. The Tribune Co. would get a higher price for the stadium because ISFA can issue tax-exempt, longer-term bonds at a reduced interest rate."

Worst Possible Corporate Name for Wrigley Field
A question for a cold winters day. With our corporate master, Sam Zell working on this; what would be the worst possible combination of corporate naming rights for Wrigley? I can think of a few like Wrigley Field at the University of Phoenix or Wrigley-Toyota Field. I think the Wrigley will stay if and when they do this. But what crazy / horrible possibilities are out there?
HGH Testing
Apologies in advance that I can't let this go. As an FYI for those of you who don't follow this; there has not been a reliable test for Human Growth Hormone (HGH) in the past. According to this NY Times article, one is finally coming this spring. The point is that we can't trust that Robert's HGH days are over just because he supposedly stopped or tested clean. Bottom line, I don't trust drug users in any form and I suggest, that the Cubbies shouldn't either.
