Their management finally got their heads out of their asses.

They did? Jason Marquis? Alfonso Soriano? Eric Patterson? Jason Kendall?

The Soriano deal was that bad? Obv Kendall was really bad. I am not familiar with the Patterson thing, he was called up from the minors? What was the mistake there (honestly asking, not familiar)?
I'm not a huge Cubs fan or anything but it seemed like this year they finally decided to stop openly robbing all of their ridiculous fans who sell out the stadium and actually enjoy losing. This seemed like a good thing to me.

The Soriano deal looks great now, but recall that he is a lot older than most people think and you guys inked him to a long-term deal.
The fact that you are unaware of Eric Patterson is the reason that the Cubs are embarassing. He is tearing the [censored] out of the ball in the minors.
There's also the Trachsel trade and the fact that you guys had an effective lefty pitcher to replace Ohman/Eyre... but now he's pitching for the Oakland A's.
