One Curse Down, One to Go

October 28, 2004

Congrats to the BoSox. I am pretty shocked that they were able to win eight straight and sweep the Cardinals. My only complaint is that baseball is over. Before the game last night I became a Cardinals fan just so that we'd get to see some more baseball. Alas, I will have to wait until April now.

In Cubs news, it looks like we'll be without Moises Alou next year. I love Moises as he's been great for us the last two years, but $11 million is too much money. Hopefully this will mean we can either hold onto Nomar or take a shot at getting Carlos Beltran. I'd prefer Beltran, as he's got a much better bat than Nomar, but then we'd lose that great fielding at shortstop. It's a tossup. No matter what, it should be an exciting offseason.

Now, I get to root for my cities two crappiest teams: the Bears and the Bulls. God, I love the Bears but I wish they'd get their act together. Hopefully Craig Krenzel can give us a spark this week.
