It seems like the Wrigley faithful have been all over the booing this year. If any Cub does anything wrong, BOOM it rains boobirds. We even gave Todd Hundley some time before we booed the hell out of him. We gave LaTroy the benefit of the doubt. I know people paid the money and within reason should be able to yell and do whatever they want, but give them a little more time. We’re not in a pennant race yet.
