How does this even happen?

1. Not only did we fall to last place in the entire NL they also messed up Billy Williams bobble head…is the whole organization just being ran by some intern this year?

2. “We can’t fix our mistake until next year” isn’t a great look either. If it’s going to take that long, just take the PR hit now and move on. No need to throw away more money just to remind us of this crap again next year.

3. Intern approved the design. /s

4. Asking $100 for it on ebay yet?

5. Incompetence and laziness

6. “They just didn’t care.”

7. Keep it. It’ll probably be more valuable.

8. A regrettable error – pretty much sums up the FO

9. Billy “kosuke fukudome” Williams bobble head day was a success.

   Next year they can have a Ernie “Ryan Theriot” Banks day, and make it a tradition.

10. How do they possibly go through design, prototype, shipping, arrival, and distribution without a SINGLE person in the organization realizing they have the wrong number for a player who has a damn flag flying in your stadium?!

    The layers of incompetence here are staggering.

11. Can they apologize for signing Michael Fulmer now?

12. Added to the list for the “Next great cubs giveaway”

13. Because the cubs have terrible ownership which begets terrible management.

14. “If you were one of the 10,000 fans who received tonight’s giveaway, you will be contacted,”

    How exactly? It’s not like they take your name, address and phone number when you get your bobble head. They just hand it to you when you walk in. They have no clue who got the bobblehead and who didn’t.

15. I got that email while I was drinking at HVAC following the loss. I was like wtf lol. I’m keeping the bobblehead tho

16. Maybe they had some parts left over from Larry Bowa Bobblehead Day.

17. Crane Kenney needs to go, the business operations are a joke. No matter how bad things used to be in the field, the business side used to be decent.
