How do you figure Wrigley would get torn down? Tom and the team have absolutely no legal grounds to do this.
If you're creative about the ballpark's adaptive reuse without baseball (say the team sells the ballpark back to the city), you quickly discover that you can actually create a pretty exciting experience that mixes open space uses with other revenue generating streams (i.e. football games, concerts...). Could become one of the more interesting public spaces in the continent if done well.
