Disappointment hurts, but abject failure can be far worse. At least Cubs fans have seen their team
in the playoffs four times in the past 10 years. Try being a Pirates fan. The last time they had a
winning season, George H. W. Bush was president, Nirvana was a new band and Barry Bonds was thin.

Sox, 2004) to Michael Jordan (1997), Kirk Gibson (1998), Willis Reed (1970), Ben Hogan (1950), a lot

Performance venues love blockbuster events, but not the kind that are currently affecting their
naming-rights partners. The stunning takeovers of big banks like Washington Mutual (WaMu) and
