It's only baseball games.

I've decided that if my Chicago Cubs can't finish in first place, I'd just as soon have them end up in last place. Yes, I wouldn't mind if they had the worst record in baseball. Maybe it's that I like extremes. Being the best. Or the worst at something. At least, if you are the worst, things are likely to get better. Next season. And if you are the best, on top of the heap, it can only get worse. The Cubs are teaching me acceptance. That it's all right to lose. Because it's only baseball games. I'd rather keep my sense of humor. And perspective. --Jim Broede
