but I just have to see the Toddster. I usually hate reality shows, and even worse if they’re thinly-veiled PR stunts, but I have to see how the Cubs manage to embarrass themselves off the field once again.

I got the feeling that despite the excuse that Tom was more well known, there was no way Tom was going to do that. I mean really Tom and Todd look very much alike….

It would have been fun to hear one employee bitching about having their trailer taken away so they could pay Soriano to jog down to first base on a grounder. But I assume the Cubs have final say on what gets broadcast.

My guess is he didn’t want try Hendry’s job. it would be too hard getting out from all the damage that has already been done!

to some, like the kid getting swim lessons, offering one a paid internship in marketing (lucky SOB) and paying for the others classes, but i wonder if those were done as much to be kind and considerate as they were for PR since on tv. Either way, it was enjoyable and i am jealous, I want to raise the W flag once, that had to be the highlight for him

But none of what “changes” that are made are going to make the actual CUBS better.

But it’s nice to see that they are trying to make life for the workers better.

Screwed up my dvr royally. Any chance of a re-air since I didn’t get to see a second of it?

I liked the “insiders” look behind the scenes and it does give me some appreciation for what those people do. There is more to the Cubs than just the guys on the field (though I know many will disagree with that). I like the fact that he took the time to say thank you to the guy who cleaned the bathrooms. Maybe we all ought to do that more often.

Wonder how much the Brady Bunch paid the producers to feature them on this show? If this was some feeble attempt to show them in a good light, they’ve failed. These people have the personalities of zombies. I have loved this team for over 45 years, but I honestly don’t know whose worse, Zell or the The Brady Bunch. Brother Todd can’t clean a bathroom, sell a hot dog, park a car or throw sand on the infield, it’s no wonder Hendry is still wandering around the front office looking for his roladex! Let’s see they’ve dumped almost a million bucks into a crazy woman’s campaign for senate, who lost, ran one of the most beloved Cubs out of the organization and Hendry is still GM. Look, I love this organization, but seeing the Brady Bunch sitting around a table speaking in a monotone, while Todd can’t even sell a few hot dogs at a baseball game, then lie straight face about it, is not encourging to a Cub fan. Not to mention all theses emails I’m getting from all my Sox buddies, who also just saw it, and aren’t as kind as I am.
