Why now? Well, don?t underestimate the Fanboy (Ricketts) Owner?s making this move in relation to his scheme to gain public funding to rehab Wrigley Field. The story was leaked yesterday, very likely to precede today?s news. Make positive moves with the team, create positive momentum. As lame a politician as the Fanboy Owner is, it?s possible he actually learned something.
