Three brothers, who grew up in Cicero, Illinois, live together in a Chicago apartment: middle brother Harry is an ambitious young architect who has an ongoing flirtation with Lindsay, his partner at work; youngest brother Billy is a college drop-out who constantly is trying to hatch get-rich-quick-schemes; and Mike, the oldest, is a construction worker separated from his wife. Their apartment overlooks Wrigley Field and the brothers often watch Cubs games and discuss the mysteries of life and love.
