A letter from Mr. Ricketts

[leonardsipes]

I hate to steer away from hot dogs, but one improvement I would like to see, is the end of the celebrity seventh inning stretch. I thought the Rickets family did a fine job. If a Rickets is there, they can do it. I don't really care who sings it, but having the guest in the booth can be a real drag. I don't mind a Cubs fan like Bill Murray, or even Bob Ueker, or Tommy Lasorda once a year, but I do not want to listen to some low level non Cubs fan knuckle head celeb. A guest conductor should be someone special, otherwise just have Len or Bob or Santo.
