Sorry for the off-topic comment, but PoPRC's sig reminded me of that....
That is sad. I can say this one thing that really pisses me off about the Cubs is that they do not give free tickets to Service men and women. My kid brother who is a US Marine, and is set to go back to Iraq soon is a big White Sox fan(mainly I think cause I am a Cubs fan) wanted to go to a Sox game while back on leave last season. So myself and my Step father took him to Comiskey to see a game and he was issued a free ticket. I thought that was great and I think every team should do it. I think its BS that the Cubs dont do this.
