so funny.  i'm originally from wisconsin... so i grew
up saying FIB.  but, i live in chicago now, and
consider it my home.  and had to give up the brewers
for the cubs back when selig made the move.  

i didn't know michiganders also said FIB, but i have
resentment against them for having the 'stolen land'
of the U.P.  it's really WI, you know?

glad SOMEONE's cursed team won!!!!

jocelyn, who hasn't forgiven the cards for game 7
against the brewers in '82.
