    An interesting fact I read about the Cubbies and their curses. "Take Me Out to the Ballgame" is most popular at Wrigley, namely because of Harry Carey's renditions of it during the 7th inning of a game. The interesting fact is the year in which that song was written......1908!!!!!!

    Woooooooo!

    Like Jason, I am riding the tide while it lasts. Hopefully all the way to October... but I know September comes first.

    Take me out to the ballgame! Wooooooo! Holy Cow!

    RIP my hero Harry Caray! Hey at least I heard him live once, in 1996.
