Cedar Point just posted their bet video on Facebook and Twitter and it's great! Wish I knew how to link to it or embed it. FWIW, the Twitter one is cut short a bit, but Facebook has the whole song!
Also, TTD will be renamed Top Thrill Cubster for opening weekend!!!
We've been saying it was going to be Cubs related! Lol Great America went right for their biggest, I love it. I'm actually really excited to see the entrance sign redone cause CP will make a nice one. Go Topthrill Cubs-ter. ;D

Go WHITE SOX!! Give them 5 years!! (just like the Cubs got under The Great Theo)
Unfortunately we don't have the front office the Cubs have. It's going to be a long time before the Sox are good again.
Are you a Sox fan also? I think Renteria hiring is a step in the right direction at least. He was handpicked by The Great Theo (and Theo has a great track record)! Also, Kenny Williams can go. I don't see why he's still around.
For the record, I don't hate the Cubs. I used to root for both teams until 2003 when the Bartman saga happened! I saw how some lunatic fans wanted to seriously kill the poor guy, and how many kept talking about "the curse" of the Cubs. Also, there was no guarantee that the 2003 Cubs would have beaten NYY, but fans insisted it was all Bartman's fault and not the shortstop's misplay of that grounder, or Kerry Wood giving up too many runs in game 7. I said enough is enough and divorced myself forever from the Cubs at that point. I am happy for the true, dedicated, lifetime Cub fans though.

Yes Im a Sox fan and both Hahn and Williams need to go.
It's not that Renteria was a bad pick but the process in which he was picked shows how broke our front office is. We didn't interview ANYONE. How often are we taking the lazy way out on scouts and other positions? Our farm system is worthless, we draft poorly and trade even worse. Renteria can work all the magic he has but he'll never have the talent Theo built for Joe Madison.

Very true. I guess I didn't even take all that into account. I am still amazed at how Cub basically 'dump' Renteria to get the Great Joe Maddon! Kind of like dumping a pretty girl when the prom queen becomes available and likes you! Nobody (ie. Cubs fans) seemed to be bothered by this.
I was not thrilled when Sox signed Ventura. He never seemed "all in" . He never said "yeah, this is a dream job for me..." or anything like that. He said something like "We'll see how this works out....".
Hang in there. We're going to get better! I wouldn't say our farm system is worthless. Sale, Q, Rodon all came up through it and Anderson as well. We need some run-producing players.
Predictions 1) Joe Maddon retires soon. He'll be 63 when spring training starts in 2017. He's reached his goal. Remember, Tony La Russa retired after winning WS with STL (his 2nd WS with STL) 2) The Great Theo moves on to another reclamation/rebuild project! He's a driven guy and now that it's "mission accomplished" here, he'll want another challenge. Yes I realized he just re-signed for 5 more years but I'm sure he can get out of it if a team is wiling to pay him!

Joe madden isn't really that old the oldest MLB player ever was 69 when he retired he also seems happy where he's at I predict he'll be around for another 5-8 years. as for Theo unless they give him part ownership I can't see him being around for much longer he'll go back to Boston.
For the record, I do offer congrats to the Cubs and all their lifelong/dedicated fans. The Cubs won the WS fair and square. It wasn't a cakewalk in the WS, but they managed to come out victorious in 2016. Great job to Theo, Maddon, and the players.
