As a die hard Cubs fan living down in Reds country in OH, I'm yelling at the top of my lungs every time a different Cubby steps up and wins the game. My wife married into life w/ an "experienced" Cubs fan as I grew up with the same 3 idols as you did of Grace, Ryno and The Hawk and lived the pain of the post season losses.

In order to beat the Cubs, the Brewers will need to go 21-8 over the same stretch - that's .724. <BR/><BR/>The Cubs do play the majority of their games on the road, however. <BR/><BR/>One day at time...just keep winning!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4884680044445124885.post-69737278180894446332008-08-28T13:57:00.000-05:002008-08-28T13:57:00.000-05:00Great Post...
