Cubs owner Tom Ricketts wants to build on World Series title (Yahoo Sports)

Now that his Chicago Cubs are champions for the first time in 108 years, owner Tom Ricketts is thinking far bigger: He wants to be the best organization globally. A recent trip to Monaco to accept an award for top sports team in the world reminded Ricketts just how many people love the Cubs and are overjoyed to see them end a drought dating to 1908. Ricketts addressed the defending World Series champs on Saturday, when their scheduled first full-squad workout of spring was rained out.
