Usually this takes until some time in August, or in a “good” year on the North Side we may get to an even more painful collapse in October, but for 2010, its official!
The Chicago Cubs are dead. They are as of today 11 games out of first place, they have as good a chance of catching the Wild Card as Osama Bin Laden does of joining the B’nai Brith, Lou Piniella is retiring so that he doesn’t get fired, Derrek Lee is rumored to be on the trading block, and their 90-million dollar pitcher is a major league headcase.
In other words, 2010 just becomes another typical year of Wrigley-based failure; the 102nd consecutive year the World Series remains thankfully Cub-free.
