The 2008 Cubs

I didn't watch. Not even one pitch. The outcome was all too familiar to me. Cubs lose.

I almost got excited, but I contained myself. I knew if I became too involved, followed too closely, cared too much, I would feel pain.

I have had enough of this kind of pain in my life. No it is not about family, friends, or life or death issues like the economy.

Besides, I have kind of gotten used to it. Like that back pain I have had for forty years.

I won't point fingers or play the blame game.

Thanks for an exciting year Cubbies.

Wait til' next year!
