Cubs are from Mars

Add comment May 8th, 2008

People won’t be uttering that phrase if the state swings a deal to buy Wrigley Field, the Chicago Tribune said today.

The name likely will remain Wrigley Field and won’t take on the name of the chewing gum-maker’s new owner, Mars, the story seems to say.

Just think: We’ll be spared the “Men (in other words, ‘Cubs’) are from Mars, Women (in other words, girls/Sox) are from Venus” kind of thinking.
