Of course I've heard the song, Greg - why would I comment otherwise? Sheesh,
can't I get a little baseball smack in here w/o someone taking it so
literally? Did I (ahem) "get your goat"? :)
I'm a Steve Goodman fan so I know the lore, I was just saying that even the
pity you might feel for that fan (and Goodman's honest sympathy) won't help
change things in a karmatic way...*all* Cubs fans are going to go to their
grave w/o seeing the team with the series.
