Cubs sale: Down to three, Ricketts and Zell partners?

A well placed source has updated Chi-ball on the Cubs sale:

The bidding is down to three prospective owners.

The deal is being offered as a “partnership” with Sam Zell.

According to the source, there are not many people in the current economical environment that can be fluid enough with their funds to make a deal like this work.

Tom Ricketts is still the leader at this time, and does not see any obstacles for him presently.

There is a group still alive that hasn’t been mentioned by the media.

We should know more by the weekend.
