Well, my second son was born Tuesday, the night of the freaky stuff happening at Wrigley Field. I was in the recovery room with my new son and my wife while I watched the Cubs completely derail. I knew right then and there the Cubs weren't going to the World Series this season, despite there still being a Game 7 the next night.

Two nights after that, Grady Little ensured that the World Series would appeal to only a small fraction of folks in Florida and New York. I'm not a major league manager, nor do I know Pedro Martinez's normal duration in a game. But, I'd generally pull a guy out of the game when he's been out there for 120+ pitches and is giving up hits.

I've been joking that Andrew Joseph is a bad luck charm for the Cubs; their 0-2 since he was born. He'll probably be 7-8 months old before the Cubs win a game. It's all true! But, I am joking. All of it is just unfortunate timing for the little fella.

The Cubs losing was SO depressing. It was only followed by the Red Sox losing. I have absolutely no interest in the World Series. I think I heard that the Marlins won last night: BFD.
