Official: Wrigley Sells to Mars
Oct 2nd
Although announced in April, the sale was finally approved today. This merger concerns me mostly because Wrigley is based in Chicago and has a long history with the city, and most notably, Wrigley Field. But also, both Mars and Wrigley have sponsorship deals in Nascar. Always curious to see what will happen to those sponsorships now that the two companies are one.

Go Cubs Go!
Oct 1st
And so begins the first step in the road to the World Series for the Cubs, an opening round matchup with the Dodgers. I’m confident that our team is much better and should take this series in 4 games. That’s my prediction- Go Cubbies!
