Business Week posted a really cool feature looking at the smartest spending teams in the four major sports.

LOL Cubs (Part 2)
Remember that 400-pound replica cake of Wrigley Field the Cubs brought out yesterday to mark the 100th anniversary of their beloved ballpark? The one that took four workers six full days to complete? It ended up in a dumpster, instead of on display at the Cubs' annual charity event as planned.
