Good? Yay! Bad? Dammit! Mediocre? Kill me.
Here's to hoping that the Cubs either have a great year or a piss poor year, but nothing in between.I remember good Cubs teams, I remember bad Cubs teams, but I always seem to tune out when the Cubs are playing .500 ball. It's boring. You can't get excited, but you can't really bitch a whole lot either.
When August rolls around and your team is in last, you get to make the requisite "can't wait for football" and "my slow-pitch team could take 2 out of 3 from these guys" comments. Those are always fun.
When your team is perpetually about 8 to 12 games from the playoffs, there isn't a more painful existence. Personally, I stop checking box scores, stop watching Baseball tonight until the playoffs fire up, and start concentrating on my fantasy football draft.
That's why, a month before the season fires up. I'm hoping for either 102-60 or 60-102, but nothing that deviates too far from either end.

You know, I actually have to agree with this.
Besides the maddening nature to a Cub fan's psyche, it also leads to retarded decisions...such as letting Kerry Wood throw out of the bullpen, while knowing if you get that shoulder surgery done in August, he's ready at the beginning of Spring Training.
Such is life, I guess.
