There's a bit of talk going around that the NBA's Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban may buy the Chicago Cubs, but if given the chance, it seems he'd prefer the Pirates.

I'd like to see him get one or the other; he's done a fantastic job with the Mavs, and both Chicago and Pittsburgh have been mired in the pits a long time, it'd be nice to see them turned around.

Can you imagine a return to the glory days of Clemente, Stargell, and Parker? I've always like the Pirates; I'd love to see them do well. I can't remember if I told you, Katy, my employer's daughter and hubby just went to PA, and they went to PNC to see a game, they raved about the stadium.

It is nice. Especially if you are a guest in a luxury box. I don't love baseball and won't pretend to understand it, but I do enjoy the atmosphere of baseball games....and the food.
