CUBAN WANTS CUBS
Tuesday, December 4 2007

Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban insists that he's dead serious about making an attempt to buy the Chicago Cubs from Sam Zell once the sale of Tribune Co., which owns the baseball team, is concluded. In an interview with the Chicago Sun-Times, Cuban pooh-poohed published speculation that baseball owners would not allow him into their club. "Why would I be involved in something if I didn't think I can be successful?" he remarked. "It's a passion project, it makes great business sense for me." Cuban suggested that the team might open opportunities for his other ventures, including his Landmark Theaters chain, which, he said, could present live high-definition big-screen presentations of Cubs away games, presumably at its theaters in Chicago and Highland Park.
