...I can live without those specific items....but Rickettsville goes way beyond that......Addison St has been completely transformed ("Rickettized"), the Wrigley rooftops (what's left of them) have lost a lot of their charm, the field itself is gaudy billboards, club boxes, everything has become "cleanup, sanitary, and suburbanized"......just like Times Square
