November 5, 200916 yr FWIW Even though they "spent" so much money in the off season, I believe their payroll this year might actually be less than it was last year.
November 5, 200916 yr As a Yankee fan, not only am I delighted by this win because it restores the Natural Order of Things, but I also believe that I, as a native New Yorker, am entitled to multiple World Series Championships. The rest of you should, of course, continue to root for your silly little teams. They sometimes win it all, too! EDIT: Well, except for the Cubs, they don't win it all, poor bastards.
November 5, 200916 yr ..... EDIT: Well, except for the Cubs, they don't win it all, poor bastards. Rub it in why don't you.
November 5, 200916 yr another year goes by where my preferred outcome doesn't happen. One of these days a meteor will fall from space and kill both teams.
November 5, 200916 yr Rub it in why don't you. Heh, sorry about that. My father, brother, and I are trying to plan a pilgrimage to Wrigley next summer.
November 5, 200916 yr Heh, sorry about that. My father, brother, and I are trying to plan a pilgrimage to Wrigley next summer. <cough>CanJam'10<cough>
November 5, 200916 yr <cough>CanJam'10<cough> Sorry Jim... they play @ Houston on those dates. I blame the organizers for picking an Away weekend. **BRENT**
November 5, 200916 yr You are incorrect sir, the most enjoyable time to visit Wrigley is when the Cubs are playing away. You could always come in the weekend before and see them play St. Louis on 5/29 or 5/30 if you were actually interested in seeing an actual game for some strange reason.

November 5, 200916 yr EDIT: Well, except for the Cubs, they don't win it all, poor bastards. 2003 was painful. And since then we've ridden a wave of mediocrity as I watched the Red Sox (second longest winless streak to that point), White Sox, and Cardinals take a world series consecutively. Baseball is not kind for Cubs fans. Maybe we're just fools.
November 5, 200916 yr Are you referring to the cubs with that comment? If they are a 'baseball' team, then yes
November 5, 200916 yr As a White Sox fan growing up, about the only thing I ever liked about the Cubs was that they always sucked. Of course, the same could be said about the Sox, but at least they eventually won a World Series. Getting back to Al's topic, I don't like what money has done to professional sports, but that's now the way of life. What really sucks is that it has crept into the collegiate sports (especially men's football and basketball) as well, although thankfully, it's less painfully obvious at that level.
November 5, 200916 yr Author Sorry Jim... they play @ Houston on those dates. I blame the organizers for picking an Away weekend. **BRENT** Indeed. Very weak.
November 5, 200916 yr I plan on boycotting CJ'10 b/c of no cubbies. But what I was saying about not going to Wrigley... they sold it, right? Probably won't be Wrigley anymore. Google Park, maybe? Who bought them again? **BRENT**
