Admit it, folks. We all have dreams. Actors have them about winning an Emmy on TV or an Oscar in the movies. Singers have dreams about winning a Grammy. Basketball players have dreams about hitting a buzzer beater to win a game. A baseball player has dreams of hitting a walk off home run. I think you get the picture.

For Marquee's Cole Wright, he's living a dream as well. After attending Cubs' games at Wrigley Field with his family growing up, he's now living the dream as pregame & postgame host for Cubs' baseball broadcasts since Marquee signed on the air in the pandemic-shortened 2020 MLB season.

Now about to start his 7th season at Marquee, Wright shares his own dream story with former 670 AM The SCORE producer/host & Barrett Media's John "Rock" Mamola in quite a profile.

Wright shares how retired NBC 5 anchor/reporter Art Norman took him under his wing and helped lead him to his first opportunity in sports media. After working in much smaller markets in San Angelo & Tyler, TX, Wright was hired in 2011 by ESPN. Then, stints at FOX Sports & NFL Network followed.

Wright also discussed the phone call in 2019 prior to Marquee's launch that would change his professional career forever...And working at a place whose offices & studios are right across the street from Wrigley Field.
