Wrigley Field Garage Sale ?
Submitted by diana on Tue, 2007-09-18 15:37.When I was at the Cubs/Cards game last week, I heard that there would be a "Wrigley Field Garage Sale" during the last two series at Wrigley.
Since we're in that time frame now, has anyone attended the "Wrigley Field Garage Sale"?
What kind of items were they offering?
Was it possible for those without a ticket to attend, or was it just for those who paid admission to the game?
Thanks!

Sullivan Blogging
Submitted by Squib Hits on Wed, 2007-06-20 21:42.Now that the Chicago Tribune's Paul Sullivan is blogging at ChicagoSports.com's new Hardball blog (his first post, by the way, is a good one), will he be more respectful of bloggers?

Does Chicago have enough pro sports teams?
Submitted by diana on Sat, 2006-12-16 11:10.There are teams mentioned in this story that I didn't know existed!
Always room for more?
Is there a saturation point for the Chicago area sports market?

Chicago Cubs fans and St. Louis Cardinal fans after the World Series
Submitted by diana on Mon, 2006-10-30 10:42.Did anyone watch the WGN news Friday night? I think they offered a mention that the Cardinals won the World Series...and that was about it.
I was hoping that was all I would hear about it. Yeah, I was wrong about that.
On Saturday, those Cardinal shirts were seen all over my Illinois city.
The local Walmart is featuring them - perhaps that's why.
I have seen some folks wearing Cubs shirts and hats this weekend, and I do tell those folks "yea Cubs!". I love seeing the little kids wearing Cubs logo stuff after the Cards won the World Series.
On Sunday the first person to greet me reminded me of the Cardinals victory. After the first service, the fellow who sits in front of me mentioned it too. (Those two have been trying to get me to convert to Cardinalism. I tell them its not in my Cub fan nature...)

Girardi not returning to Marlins
Submitted by cgalik on Fri, 2006-09-22 20:05.This MLB.com article writes commenting on sources in Florida:
Girardi has "zero" chance of returning for a second season.
I'm a Dusty fan, but I say goodbye to Baker and hello to Girardi.

Cubs Blog Army Quoted in Trib
Submitted by cubsnet on Fri, 2006-07-07 11:49.A good number of members of the Cubs Blog Army were quoted in today's Chicago Tribune, in an article by David Haugh. (Hat tip: Al Yellon at Bleed Cubbie Blue.) Though contrary to Al's thinking, it doesn't appear that Haugh contacted the bloggers; it instead appears he just viewed the blogs and quoted from them. (We wouldn't, of course, expect such an article from Paul Sullivan.)
The article is nice to see, even if it is mostly a cheap way for the Tribune to get some content for today's paper. Many of the opinions quoted are just as well thought out as what you'd find from the paid columnists.

Back to CubsNet
Submitted by Charles Rector on Tue, 2006-05-02 22:15.With this post, I am renewing my blog here on CubsNet. In a way, it seems that nothing has changed here during my absence. When I first started here in April of last year, there were hardly any other bloggers here other than the author of the cubsnet blog. Now, in May 2006, he seems to be the only really active blogger.
This is strange since CubsNet offers those of us who are interested in the Cubs a chance to blog with a regular audience right from the get go. Its pretty difficult to gain an audience in a decent time period if you are starting a new weblog on something like say Blogger.com or its imitators. This is especially true if you are not able to post everyday. Some time ago, the Washington Post ran an article that said that in order to attract a decent audience, a blogger needs to post at least 3 times a day. Needless to say, that's a pretty tall order for most folks, especially if you put in a lot of thought and do rewrites before you finally post something.
The Utility of the CubsNet.com Aggregator
Submitted by cubsnet on Thu, 2006-03-09 23:15.One of the great features of the content management software that runs CubsNet.com--Drupal--is the ability to compile feeds of blogs and news sites. You may come to CubsNet.com for the news, commentary, and discussion, but CubsNet.com is also a portal to excellent discussion throughout baseball blogging world. Just click the "news feeds" link at the top of the page or the "news aggregator" link in the left column (they take you to the same place). Once there, you'll see all of the compiled feeds, sorted chronologically, starting with the most recent content.
