I think of the guys that are left, Ricketts is the heavy favorite here at SOI.

I'm going on the assumption that when people talk of Ricketts, that there is a Ricketts group, and it isn't just the family. (I may be wrong) Does anyone know who is in this Ricketts consortium? I'm guessing (and again - just a guess) that this will be Ricketts the same way that Reinsdorf owns the Sox. He will be the managing partner with the largest share, but he won't be the only money in this thing. With the kind of $ we are talking about, if it includes both the team and the stadium, I don't see how Ricketts would choose to go at it alone (or with just family money).
Has anyone heard if/who is part of a Ricketts team?

heres the problem cherp-a-roo: when you were on the original iti, i hated you. then you joined us at soi and you grew on me, partly because you toned it down a bit, and partly because of the way you were treated.
now that i know you're a dirty white sox fan and a cub hater, i don't know how to respond to your posts anymore. i'm sure you're a decent guy in real life and i sympathize with your family tragedy. (i really do too - my heart goes out to your family) but i don't feel like i can ever trust you again. your posts confuse me. i don't know how to react knowing that you hate the cubs and cub fans.
just thought i'd share my feelings.
