Historic series at Fenway

So the Cubs lost 2 out of 3.  It was still a historic weekend series at Fenway.  I enjoyed Friday's game from the outfield with my brother-in-law.  Thanks Mike!  The Cubs were drubbed 15-5, but it was fun.  Too bad a decent beer costs $8.50.  That's a little crazy, but we each had a couple.  This was the first time the Cubs
had played at Fenway since September 11, 1918.  That was game 6 of the World Series which surprisingly
enough the Cubs lost.  If there is anything the Cubs are good at it is losing.  I still love 'em!!

Cubs Suck!!

It may seem a bit harsh, but true.  The Cubs suck!  17-22.  6 games out of first place.  I shouldn't be disappointed.  This seems to be shaping up to be another typical Cubs year.  In better news, in 2004 four Cubs players hit over 30 home runs:  Moises Alou(39), Derrek Lee(32), Aramis Ramirez(36), and Sammy Sosa(35).

"All the Way" - Eddie Vedder Cubs Tribute

Spring Hopes Eternal

The Cubs have a .429 winning percentage as of today.  That's not so good.  But, they are only 3.5 games out of first place.  Fortunately the NL Central is pretty weak this year.  Maybe Ryan Dempster can get something going tonight against the Dodgers.  103 years since their last World Series Championship, the Cubs appear to be in no hurry to change things.
