GO CUBS GOOOO, GO CUBS GOOO

My first trip to Wrigley Field to see the CUBS was Labor Day week end of

1967. A fun week end to see the family before I headed out to college......

It was tough for years, until we finally acquired cable TV and became

afternoon baseball junkies. Before the postal service started messing

around with starting times (today it is 8 am or later), I could get my

job done and get home in time to see the last inning or two. Eventually, it evolved into summer trips to see AJ and UGH, my aunt and uncle, and into Chicago for games. One year we were able to see a double header, the day before was rained out. Uncle Gale (UGH) didn't move out of his seat for

almost 8 hours! So now, we celebrate. The first step is done, division

champs. We have all of the parts to win, along with the naysayers and the

ad men.......100 years since the last title! At least I will have some fun

for a few weeks and I signed up to hopefully win the chance to BUY

playoff tickets. I won one time, when KC beat the Cards, same as today!

Cubs beat the Cards........we went to KC for the first round vs Toronto, KC

won that game 2-1........Carry on all ya'll CUB fans..........

GO CUBS GO, GO CUBS GO, HEY CHICAGO WHAT DO YOU SAY??????

CUBS DID WIN TODAY............LET'S PLAY TWO...............
