...not even worth praying to god.

The Chicago Cubs keep losing. Shutout by Houston tonight. It's 5 straight losses. All of them at home. For a Cubs fan, this should start to trigger memories of 1969. When the Cubs blew a big lead in September and succumbed to the New York Mets. Funny. Many Cubs fans just figure that something will go wrong. High hopes. And then failure. Something like what the Mets did last season. New York blew a 7 1/2 game lead with only 17 games remaining. That's pretty hard to do. Anyway, I've learned over the years to accept fate. What happens, happens. And I don't lose sleep over it. Because the outcome is out of my control. It's not even worth praying to god. --Jim Broede
