Why?

Let's be realistic. I'm a Cubs fan. I've accepted the fact that they might make a playoff run every odd year, but they are what they are - a mediocre team that rakes in the cash from the Wrigley experience. I'm okay with the whole billy goat, Bartman, been-waiting-since-1908 deal. But why, tell me, do I have to put up with this?

First, October 2005:

And now, October 2006:

It could only be worse if...shoot, it couldn't be worse. Oh well, only ten more weeks until the Bears yak it up in the playoffs.

And another thing...Why in the world is Fox playing the Mary J. Blige butchering of "One?" Was there something wrong with the original? Was it not transcedent enough?

What a night - the Cards win the world series, and MJB has ruined my favorite rock song. blah....
