Daley To Meeks: Don't Go To Wrigley Field

AP:
Chicago Mayor Richard Daley is urging state Sen. James Meeks not to bring his protest against the disparity in funding of rich and poor public school districts to the streets outside Wrigley Field.

Meeks, who led a two-day boycott of Chicago Public Schools to highlight the funding disparity, is promising to have 6,000 protesters ringing Wrigley Field during next week's opening playoff game.

Daley, who happens to be a die-hard White Sox fan, says the city has waited a long time for the Cubs to become good enough to contend for a spot in the World Series. He said Meeks shouldn't disturb the team.
Yeah I think Meeks should listen to the Mayor, yes!
