Kinda funny and sad story --
A co-worker of mine (didn't like baseball last year, but now is a big Cub fan), was all hyped up yesterday (Monday).
I heard him repeatedly asking people if they were "gonna watch the Cubbies tonight".
Kinda funny no matter what - but especially funny because they DIDN'T EVEN HAVE A GAME THAT NIGHT!
I made sure not to say anything. Then later, I heard him ask yet another person (over the phone) if they were gonna watch the Cubbies. There was a breif silence, then I heard him go 'uuugh'.
*******
I'm pretty sure that the Cubs haven't won more then 3 in a row since before they came to Comisky in June. But every time they notch a win, lots of Cub fans think everything is straightened out.
