I saw like 5 seconds of the game last night. Nick said I needed to get used to paying attention to the Cubs. Some guy had to duck because the ball would've hit him in the head. Then they showed him ducking from like 7 different angles. It was funny.

Yeah, actually, I completely forgot about the game situation for a brief instant while we were applauding Wood.
AT WRIGLEY. KERRY WOOD EXITS.
Me: (clapping head off) KERRY! WE LOVE YOU!Me: (to friend) Why is he hanging his head down like that? Friend: I think he's upset about the 3 runs he just gave up.Me: Oh.

It kind of cracked me up when I realized how deluded that was.

Ha ha, so true.
I myself have these weird Yanc3ylike feelings of possessiveness over a guy at my tennis club for no reason. The poor guy goes there with his girlfriend and I have these irrational angry feelings towards her, that she is not worthy of being his girlfriend (even though I don't know either of them at all), so seeing them together makes me livid with rage, even though I have no connection to them whatsoever.
x-post: Oh come on, Darren Baker is like 4 years old! It's cute when he cries. Like when the college basketball cheerleaders cry, I love that.

"The Cubs are it for me. The other sports I love, but this would be the greatest. ... I don't need it anymore. I have a son; he's 1-year-old. That's my joy. I don't need the Cubs anymore. But, you know, life will go on and we'll get through this."
Does this mean he didn't pay attention to his child before the Cubs lost? Weel, shit... Go Marlins!

this kind of squares w/ my opinion of suburban cubs fans. (speaking as someone who grew up around wrigley and had to put up with them.)
