Goat's head delivered to Chicago Cubs owner Tom Ricketts at Wrigley Field - ESPN Chicago



Wow, it sounds like they're taking this a little too seriously. An intimidating package? Really!?!

from ESPN:
Goat's head delivered to Chicago Cubs owner Tom Ricketts at Wrigley Field - ESPN Chicago:

A goat's head was delivered to Wrigley Field on Wednesday addressed to Chicago Cubs owner Tom Ricketts, a team spokesman confirmed.
No note was included, and it was turned over to Chicago police.
"We got a call at 2:30 p.m., responding to 1060 West Addison, Wrigley Field," a Chicago Police Department spokesman said. "We're investigating it as an intimidating package."

It's not like we're talking about a scene from The Godfather are we?




Call me crazy. But if I'm Tom Ricketts, I'm embracing the whole goat thing.


You know, like a Reverse the Curse II. Don't let these crazy fans push you around. 



You know like when someone sends you a Goat's Head you gotta turn it Goat's Head cheese, man!!

Just think of the marketing opportunities.....


Well, OK that's one.

But I was thinking more about maybe a stuffed goat's head on the fence or the scoreboard, that kids could get their picture taken next to.

Maybe a Rally Goat? 

God knows they need help scoring runs. I mean, you obviously can't get a decent hitting coach, sooo....


Hey, it worked for the Angels. World Champions 2001.


It's not like this team hasn't had other issues over the years. Blaming it all on a little goat? C'mon!!



Besides, things have got to turn around eventually, right?



And when it does, it's going to be REALLY GOOD!!

At least, that's the story Pete Rose tells:
