Newsflash: Old people don't like change

Well gee, if some old guy who is going to die soon doesn't want the name of Wrigley Field to change, I guess to the press he's got absolute moral authority to reject it:

At 99, Johnson has a hard time summoning some long-buried memories. But he's certain about this: He doesn't want Cubs owner Sam Zell to sell the Wrigley Field name to the highest bidder.

"I don't like the idea," Johnson says during a bedside chat this week. "It's been Wrigley all these years. Why change it? It would be a terrible mistake."

In other news, he then complained about these damn kids today.
