Curry may end up accepting Chicago's qualifying offer of $5.2 million for this season on the hopes that he will have no other episodes of the irregular heatbeat that sidelined him from March 30, which would allow him to be an unrestricted free agent after the season.
If he is able to get private insurance, it could prompt a team to offer him a long-term contract, with the view that if he was hurt, they could recoup their investment from the insurance proceeds paid to Curry.

On January 3 the Tribune ran the story on page one, under the headline "Macy's learning it's what's in a name." The backdrop to the change, the Tribune told its readers, was a weak Christmas, an estranged public, and a critical Wall Street.
