Go Cubs Go!

this weekend is huge. probably the most important weekend of the year. it's the much anticipated rival teams of the summer White Sox versus Chicago Cubs going at it. Chicago looks forward to this series every year. sale prices for tickets soar and the city goes crazy for three days. no one really cares about anything and focuses their entire attention on this one question: Who's going to win the best out of three?

i'm, naturally, a Cubs fan. the roots run deep. for years and years and years my family have always cheered for the Cubs. we've been with them through it all. the ups and downs. set backs and near triumphs. and this year just might be the year. never have the Cubs done this good this far into the season. well, not since 1908, 100 years ago, the last time they won the World Series. before they had an awful curse put on them, due to some stinky goat and a cantankorous old man who owned a restuarant called, "Billy Goats" that sells really greasy, but good burgers and charges you a pretty penny for it. but i just learned that the letter "C" is the Roman numeral for 100. so there you go. it's their year.

Lou Pinella is an amazing manager and has everything organized and planned to a tee. despite one of our best hitters Soriano breaking his hand last week, due to a bad pitch from a Braves pitcher, we're still good. we have the best pitching and batting line-up in both leagues, i believe. i think Ryan Dempster is an amazing picher. and despite Derek Lee not batting as well as he has in the past, i'm still his #1 fan. Fukudome is the cutest, best player on the team.
