This morning, the chirpy sportscaster on my radio announced with pride that the Cubs' 14-6 start was "their best since 1975."
Sounds great...except the chirpy sportscaster neglected to mention that in 1975, the Cubs finished 75-87, tied for last in what was then the Eastern Division of the National League with the the Montreal Expos (now the Washington Nationals).
Hi. I'm Johnny Buzzkill. Nice to meet you.

The average Cubs fans' optimism springs eternal, dude. I guess I'm not the average fan because I refuse to get excited about Cubs victories this early in the season. Life presents enough disappointment without me setting myslf up for it.
I agree. It's nice that they're doing well and all, but...it's April. If they were sucking harder than an industrial-strength Hoover at this point, I'd say the same thing.
meh.
