Zell

As much as I hate the guy based on the naming rights issue alone, there's some kind of cosmic justice here. I've read a lot of different people through the years bash the Trib for their ownership of the club, but of course people always seem to forget to be careful what they wish for.
That said, I get the feeling that Zell is simply posturing here. And even if he's serious, it strikes me as the kind of undertaking that's easier said than done. For example, isn't the Wrigley Field sign protected under some sort of landmark status?

That sounds right, but I don't know for sure. That's be interesting. Selling the naming rights, but having to leave "Wrigley Field" on the sign.

I have been notified that you can sign an online pledge to boycott any company that buys the naming rights to Wrigley Field here.
