Quick Hits: Cubs News


Yesterday, Mark Cuban was in Chicago participating in the Kerry Wood Bowling charity event. He talked about his visit but dodged question about the sale of the Cubs or that he was currently the top bidder.

He said he was there to bowl and to support a good organization and did not comment on his intentions of buying the Cubs.

In other news the Cubs traded Scott Eyre to the Phillies in exchange for Brian Schlitter who is a right-hander that was playing with the Class-A affiliate of the Phillies.

Joe Willett

Hi there Cubbie faithful. My name is Joe Willett and I’m here to give you every piece of Chicago Cub information that you could ever want.

I started to take journalism in high school as a way to pass the time and as something that seemed interesting.

I tried news journalism but it just wasn’t for me, so I went to my passion, sports journalism and I am now the Sports Editor for my high school paper.

I have been writing for Bleacher Report and have achieved Senior Writer status along with 83 fans to date.

I have tried but failed to blog in the past, but am going to stick with this one because of more discipline.

I hope that everybody here can enjoy your Daily Cub.

Bob Warja

I am a lifelong Chicagoan who roots for all of the Chicago sports teams, not surprisingly, but the Cubs in particular. I am a sports fan in general, but I gravitate toward all things baseball, and as a Cubs fan, am no stranger to suffering. I am a Senior Writer for BR who has a passion for writing, but I must warn you: I am not shy when it comes to expressing my opinions. But the good thing is I’m always willing to hear another side of the story, so feel free to challenge me if you do not agree with something I’ve written. I enjoy friendly debate.

If you want to know more about me, Sam Wenk was kind enough to do a brief profile on me for BR:

I am the Chicago Cubs Community Leader, and we’re always looking for fresh Cubbie talent, so drop me a line on my Bulletin Board below, or via my personal e-mail at rememberthecoop@yahoo.com – I’d be happy to help you in any way possible.

Katelyn Grabarek

I am a diehard Cubs fan, from South Bend Indiana (near Notre Dame). I am a college student studying communications, with a passion for journalism. I love sports in general, and I’m a tennis player.

I am a soon to be college sophomore at Saint Mary’s College, and I write for Notre Dame’s newspaper and get to cover a lot of their sports. It’s been a great experience covering Notre Dame, but my real passions are baseball and football.

I have more than a few quirks about stats I keep track of especially when it comes to the Cubs. I guess when you live and die every year with them, you become superstitious and an eternal optimist, or in my case pessimist who dreads the worst. Go Cubs!

Pat DeMarco

My favorite sports are baseball, football, and basketball. Baseball is clearly my favorite sport. Growing up in Chicago, I have always been a huge Cubs fan. I love watching and analyzing Chicago Cubs baseball. I’m also a huge Chicago Bears fan. It’s not to difficult to find me on Sunday. You will find me watching the NFL.

I graduated from Southern Illinois University with a degree in Communications. I love following SIU basketball. I hope you enjoy my articles. I’m going to try and mix things up a little writing about baseball, football, basketball, and sometimes a few random articles.

Prior to working in the Transportation/Logistics industry, I spent a few years working in the Radio and TV industry. I’ve been fortunate to have had the opportunity to cover numerous sporting events and teams. I covered the 2001 Chicago Cubs, and Chicago White Sox. I’ve also covered the Western Open Golf Tournament, and numerous high school, and college sporting events.

While attending Southern Illinois University, I worked at a local NPR station and PBS station covering soft news, hard news, Illinois politics, and local sports.

Hope you enjoy all articles.
