NO!!MARY!!! Posted October 12, 2003 Share Posted October 12, 2003 If the Cubs win tomorrow, look for the bleating sheep of the media to repeat the following phrases ad naseum: "Armageddon!" "The world is coming to an end!" "The goat is slain!" "Curse lifted!" "Long-suffering Cub fans..." "America Cheers!" "DUSTINY!" All of these quotes will probably appear in Jay Mariotti's column alone. I'm willing to say that one or more will pronounce the White Sox' death sentence, probably Snide Rosenbloom will pronounce them ready to be contracted in 2006. Look for Jay M. to do the same once he's done having multiple fits of ecstasy over our Cubbies. Me, I have imposed a total media blackout, in effect until the end of the World Series.

aboz56 Posted October 12, 2003 Share Posted October 12, 2003 Maybe this will convince JR to get his head out of his a$$ and spend some money on something besides William Koch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al Lopez Ghost (old) Posted October 12, 2003 Share Posted October 12, 2003 I agree on all counts. One thing though: can you imagine how bad it would be to be in a ballpark full of Cub and Yankee fans? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperSteve Posted October 12, 2003 Share Posted October 12, 2003 I agree on all counts. One thing though: can you imagine how bad it would be to be in a ballpark full of Cub and Yankee fans? I have been in a ballpark full of Cubs fans, and I have been in a ballpark decently filled with Yankees fans, that would be bloody awful.

Media blackout is what I have done, for the most part. It's the sole reason why I have retained my sanity. But for The Goat to be slain, the Cubs still need to win the WS..... if they make it there.
