almost halfway there

Here's a random fact that anyone paying attention to baseball (anyone?) is well aware of. We're almost to the All-Star Break and the Cubs are still treating the rest of the league like their footstool. Should we be surprised? Of course not, it's not like the Cubs haven't been the best team in the league since the start of the season. In fact, I'm beginning to think I should go ahead and give my supervisor a heads-up that I'll be missing some days in the early November time frame. After squandering chances to see the Bears in the Stupid Bowl and see an NBA Finals game right in my backyard, only if I'm dead will I miss out on seeing the Cubs crush the first opponent to visit Wrigley for a World Series game in 63 years.
