\"Sammy<\/p>\n

Cubs legend\u00a0Sammy Sosa\u00a0made his long-awaited return to Chicago on Friday.<\/p>\n

It marked the first time Sosa has visited the city in years.<\/p>\n

Sammy Sosa appeared on \u201cThe Steve Cochran Show,\u201d before a few events Sosa attended around the city.<\/p>\n

Sosa said he hasn\u2019t been in Chicago in so long that he hasn\u2019t seen the Wrigley Field renovations. Which renovations, 2014 or 2019?<\/p>\n

Either way, Sosa hasn\u2019t been in Chicago for a long time. Many Cubs fans would love to see Sosa and the Cubs reconcile. That way Sosa could get his number retired and the legend could be given the flowers he deserves.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Sammy Sosa was the first player in MLB history to hit 60 home runs in three seasons. That is more than worthy of retiring the mans jersey number. The disagreements and misunderstandings between Sosa and the Cubs are things of the past and should be left there.<\/p>\n

Sosa\u2019s newest media comments suggests that he agrees with letting the past be the past.<\/p>\n

Sosa speaks on his found \u201cmaturity\u201d to the press<\/h2>\n

Sammy Sosa made it clear to the media on Friday that he is a changed man. Sosa said he takes responsibility for his actions and is open to talking with Tom Ricketts. The Ball is in Ricketts court on if this potential reunion is going to happen or not.<\/p>\n

Here is what Sosa had to say when asked about potentially sitting down with Tom Ricketts and repairing the relationship between the MLB legend and the Cubs.<\/p>\n

\u201cWell like I have said, I am a mature man, I think it is a possibility that we can do that,\u201d Sosa said.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m open, I don\u2019t have any problem with that. You know, there was a lot of misunderstanding in the past, but now I\u2019m a real man, I feel great, so I recognize my mistake, so hey why not.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
