New Era at Wrigley Field

So the Boy Wonder drops into Chicago, his heroic cape flapping in the Lake Michigan breeze.

That's a good thing.

Theo Epstein officially took over yesterday as the Chicago Cubs president, with good intentions to bring a World Series championship to Wrigley Field for the first time since 1908.

Epstein's resume includes two World Series titles with the Boston Red Sox, exorcising demons and curses that had plagued the ballpark under the Citgo sign since 1918.

Can he create that magic in Chicago?

Epstein made Bill Buckner irrelevant. Let's see if he can do the same to Steve Bartman.

With all the emphasis of a Jack Brickhouse home run call, here's hoping.

Go Cubs.
