You were pathetic.

This is even worse than last year's first round sweep in so many ways.

The regular season team deserved to win the World Series.

This post-season team did not.

You sucked.

Hit the showers.

Does that make sense? It does to me. Kinda ( Read more... )

Wow. So, we had DSTW in Arlington Heights tonight. They opened the show there last Saturday and reports say that it went pretty well. Good laughs, positive response. Tonight, however ( Read more... )

I was just telling my friends how I was starting to grow weary of the routine my daily life is turning into. Get up, go to work (either drive or bus depending on how much time I have), start counting down the minutes the moment I arrive at work, have a Lean Pocket for lunch, talk on the phone to people I don't want to deal with and leave work. The ( Read more... )

So, the rain ruined two of my fun events I had planned for this weekend. Of course, Faire was the first. That rain was not progressive and, to anyone who found it possible to get the energy to continue performing in it near closing time, I commend you. I certainly did not want to risk getting sick, especially considering the lack of sleep I was ( Read more... )

There is a statue of John Logan in Grant Park. His statue is one of my stops on my Segway tour, but I never had much to say about him other than he was a Civil War General. Now I also know it was his call to start a "memorial day" in the United States ( Read more... )

The Red Sox broke their 86 year World Series draught in 2004. The White Sox broke their 88 year skid in 2005. And in 2006... well, it looks like the Chicago Cubs will ( Read more... )

So, "Harry Caray's" restaurant in Chicago bought "The Ball" for $106,000. They plan on destroying it, which is great... in a sense. I mean, it was the history changing ball that escalated our demise in the NLCS. And it's better than destroying Steve Bartman, the guy that touched it ( Read more... )

Whatever will be, will be. The pressure is off. Yes, it's a TREMENDOUS disappointment and a lesson to never think things are over. When the game was entering the ninth inning, I thought about what poem the Cubs' situation reminded me of. And it's actually a ballad. A famous ballad by Keats. The Cubs became the Knight-at-Arms.
