My question is why own a team and refuse to put money into it until fans show up? You are starting the downward spiral into mediocrity, yourself.

I agree.........that had actually been Reinsdorf's excuse here in Chicago for a long time. Fortunately, through deft moves by Kenny Williams to get quality men as well as players, and Ozzie instilling a team spirit that guys actually bought into, we were able to succeed despite it. Now I'm hoping Reinsdorf loosens the purse strings enough to hang on to Konerko.
