Thanks to all of you for your nice comments. My focus on that great 1929 Cub season stands in contrast to today. The Chicago Tribune and the Cubs were flush with cash and at the pinnacle. Today, they're in bankruptcy court.

But one thing remains constant -- still waiting on that World Series flag.
