5 years ago today Theo signed with the Cubs, WOW! They just played his opening statement from that PC on ESPN 1000, sounded somewhat prophetic. 5 years to rebuild a team, is the goal accomplished or do they need to win the WS?

It's been accomplished. In the NLCS and World Series and years 4&5, I'd say a playoff team for the foreseeable future. Not winning a World Series would be heartbreaking, but I'd says it's up to the coaching and players.

I would love for someone to go through old posts of the people here who were trashing Theo.

I didn't care for the bad teams and working on Wrigley originally. It wasnt going to stop me from being a Cubs fan, but I wssnt about to go to Wrigley. I came up with the restaurant analysis. That wasn't just on Theo, though. That was about the Cubs. He made very few moves you could look back on and say they weren't good moves. Wrigley has been getting changed for the better and the team is built to be competitive for many years. I can't complain about ownership, FO, the team or Wrigley. This isn't your father's Cubs organization. In the end, Theo & Co have worked his plan, as he originally discussed and stayed true, and turned it around faster than anticipated.
