Dear Uncle Bud and MLB...

Please take over the Cubs. I believe it is a thinly veiled Ponzi scheme. That makes MLB a co-conspirator. Bud, you don’t want to end up as a cell mate of Barry Bonds. Please step in and stop this madness before innocent future generations are sucked inti the great whirling blades of Cub fandome,
