  Cubs The Cubs are out. I did so want them to make it... WGN was in the first cable tv package we ever had, and I spent many summers watching the Cubs, singing with crazy drunk old urlLink Harry Caray in the 7th inning stretch. My high school sweetheart was a baseball nut and a Cubs fan, and my post-high school sweetie was from Chicago and cheered for the Cubs as well. When the Atlanta Braves started their domination of the 90s, they did so with some former Cubs on their roster.
Oh, don't get me wrong, as a Minnesota girl, I got swept up in the urlLink Twins run to the World Series , but those cute Cubs, those scrappy underdogs, won my girlish heart. ( urlLink Ryne Sandburg helped. ) Which is why I so totally agree with Wil Wheaton's comments to urlLink That Guy . Now, all that's left is to watch and see if the Red Sox can finally make Chris's dad a happy man.
