Looks like Murray [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/headbang.gif[/img] , Belushi [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/puke.gif[/img] , and Cusack [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/explode.gif[/img] among others were approached by the Ricketts to invest $25 mil each in the Cubs as part of the preferred stock deal. 1/3 ain't bad I guess.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
I heard this in the AM on the way into work and was wondering what people's takes would be on these guys.
I really don't like Belushi. If he wasn't related to the comic genius that was John Belushi, he's be relatively unknown.
Murray is a great sports fan - and a good representative of the Cubs fanbase. I hope he doesn't spend too much time in front of the cameras, but he's tolerable.
I'm no fan of Cusack. He reminds me of lots of New Treir kids I knew. That said, there are few people who are bigger Cubs fans than he is. I know he sported a Sox hat and I know he showed up at the WS. But he'd be a great asset to ownership.
