There Is Still Time For The Cubs To Lose


The Really: It looks like the Cubs have their division locked up again and the team is so balanced they have a shot at the World Series FINALLY!

There is still time.
The smell of cigars and stale beer.
The ghost of Royko taunting.
The Billy Goat.
The Bartman.
The Hey! Hey! Holy Mackeral.
There is still time.
Time enough to dream, to hope, to bleed Cub blue.
To hear Banks say, "Let's play two!"
At least this year we have Sweet Lou.
I don't know.
There is still time, for the Cubs to lose.
Update: Sunday September 14, 2008: Carlos Zambrano threw the Cubs' first no-hitter in 36 years, beating the Astros 5-0 on Sunday.
Update: Cubs hold a 7 1/2 game lead in their division.
