Let's hope they don't wreck the place. Our traditions are just as diehard as our fans.

1. hey, well if they do

you can always join the obama family and i on the south side. the best part is, we play better baseball. and have a way cooler park.

4. /sigh

You realize outside of the White Sox faithful, nobody thinks the Cell is even comparable to Wrigley. I mean **nobody**. Wrigley is a legendary place.

You do play better baseball usually, I'll give you that.

2. Hopefully

They don't try to sell the naming rights to Wrigley. First the First Comisky, next the Sears Tower...what's next...Wrigley now known as Ameritrade Park?

3. This might bring protests.

They could be the kind of protests that unite the left and right.

I hate it when they try to mess with any Cubs' traditions.

5. Like losing? They do that very well...

...and I say that as a die-hard Cubs fan...
