Sean Parnell, who wrote our Top Ten Chicago Bars list, and runs the indispensable Chicago Bar Project, has the complete f'in text of the famous Lee Elia rant here. Elia uttered every word of it on April 13, 1983 when he was the Chicago Cubs manager. Next week will mark the tirade's 26th anniversary. Not hard to see why it's lasted so long. I laugh every time I read it.
