Anyway, here's just one example of the type of stuff these latest emails revealed about Joe Ricketts and his pals.
And of course, if you're playing the right-wing playbook, you just have to hate Islam and fear Muslims.
Here's Tom Ricketts response to his dad's emails via The Athletic.
“WE ARE AWARE OF THE RACIALLY INSENSITIVE EMAILS IN MY FATHER’S ACCOUNT THAT WERE PUBLISHED BY AN ONLINE MEDIA OUTLET. LET ME BE CLEAR: THE LANGUAGE AND VIEWS EXPRESSED IN THOSE EMAILS HAVE NO PLACE IN OUR SOCIETY. “MY FATHER IS NOT INVOLVED WITH THE OPERATION OF THE CHICAGO CUBS IN ANY WAY. I AM TRUSTED WITH REPRESENTING THIS ORGANIZATION AND OUR FANS WITH A RESPECT FOR PEOPLE FROM ALL BACKGROUNDS. THESE EMAILS DO NOT REFLECT THE CULTURE WE’VE WORKED SO HARD TO BUILD AT THE CHICAGO CUBS SINCE 2009.”Joe Ricketts has also released a statement, apologizing.
You can see all the emails here. One more.
And in case you missed the last set of leaked emails from Joe Ricketts.

Hey, Tom, it might be a good time to get some good PR for a change this winter and give the green light to Theo to go out and sign a certain free agent.Comments
