A Season Ends Badly
I’ve only been following Major League Baseball with any kind of close interest for the last few years. It started really with the Sosa/McGuire home run chase in 1998 (which in hindsight was likely a steroid fueled cheat), and has grown year by year as we follow the Cubs and see them when we can. This season, they sucked. And their win in today’s season-ender put them securely in last place in their division, without even the lowly Pirates to look down upon.
Yup, the Cubs really stunk it up this year. But at least they we’re not 100-game losers like the Royals!
<p>I totally understand. The only consolation for a loser team is to point out that someone else lost more. (So don’t forget that Tampa Bay lost 101 games, way more than the Royals did at a respectable 100.)</p><p>Also, it’s worth noting that last year the Cubs lost 83 and the Royals lost 106, so apparently one team is on the way up and the other is moving down to take its place at the bottom of the barrel. Enjoy.</p>
