Give me an upside down world.

Apparently, I’m very old. Because I can still remember listening on the radio. The last time the Chicago Cubs were in a World Series. In 1945. There’s only one player from that team still living. Shortstop Lenny Murullo. He’s 97. Anyway, the Cubs lost that World Series. To the Detroit Tigers. In 7 games.  And imagine this. Murullo wasn’t even born yet the last time the Cubs won a World Series. Yes, 1908 was a good year. For Cubs fans. Anyway, as a Cubs fan, I’ve learned to take life a day at a time. Tonight, the Cubs beat the New York Yankees, 6-1, for their third straight win. A nice consolation. Because the Cubs are in last place. Oh, if only there were a way to turn the world and the standings upside down. – Jim Broede
