Not dirt cheap...



The Tribune Company which owns the Chicago cubs was sold this week to Sam Zell (a billionaire Chicago real estate magnate). The Cubs will remain with the Tribune Company until the end of the season at which point they will be sold to the highest bidder...unless the highest bidder is Mark Cuban. That said, the cubs apparently are already up on eBay for a whopping $650,000,000. I tried to find the actual posting to include and link here, but it looks like it was already taken down. So, I've included a link to the article on ESPN.com that discusses the posting. If you roll-over the big flashing dots on the article on ESPN.com, you can read some of the hilarious comments the seller included. Check it out by clicking here.
