I have been a cubs fan for as long as i can remember, I have alot of their merchandise and went to a few games bought their tshirts and hats
I lost my favorite cubs hat the other day and my girlfriend was like lets go buy you a new one, and i got to thinkin, Why in the hell should i give these guys one more cent of my money? Think about it, They have the highest payroll in the whole national league and the third highest in baseball, and they are currently 5th in thier division... Again...
After last year, the white sox winner, i was kinda sick to my stomach, yet at the same time i was happy that a chicago baseball team finally succeeded, But this is unacceptable, I mean look at them out on the field every day Ramirez swingin for the fences every at bat... People making all these excuses for Mark prior and kerry wood all the time, its just so disgusting. Dont even get me started on dusty baker. I havent liked him since he was in San Fran, and again was sick to my stomach when the cubs wanted and got him, horrible from the GET GO. You can all say whatever you want about the '03 playoff run but he ruined that just as much as bartman, watch the tape...
Anyway, my ripoff is this, and hopefully some cubs fans or even noncub fans will agree, STOP BUYING THERE MERCHANDISE, TICKETS, BEER, HOTDOGS, SHIRTS, JERSEYS, ANYTHING THAT WOULD GIVE THEM MONEY, YOU ARE NOT HELPING THIS HORRIBLE TEAM, YOU ARE HURTING IT, They dont give a hell about winning, they care about money, and they know YOU CHUMPS out there will continue to fork it over, Myself personally i am taking a stand, I WILL NOT buy anything from them untill they are contending or in the hunt, You may say thats bandwagon, but i say thats smart... Screw em,
I do appreciate the likes of Michael barret, Greg maddux, Carlos zambrano, Derrek lee, Todd walker... But most the others dont seem to care, anyway Think about it. And hopefully this will make a difference, but i know cubs fans, it probably wont..
