Addicted To a Team

Going to the ballpark with someone you met... Or just planning to watch on TV? Can't seem to make up your mind yet... Under this sky, so blue? Bet you will make the right choice though Seemly, as it will be true. Giving a look at the TV Guide's version... Out of town is where they'll be. Casting difficulty on going to see them in person... Under that domeless roof at Wrigley. But, think not of that now as your team will Soon be home for you to watch in the breeze. Guess which team I like the best... Or are you still in denial? Cubbie blue in my veins will not rest... Up until the day I die. Because I am one of those die hard fans So often remarked about and criticized. Groaning sometimes, they give me the joys of those... Of watching the team where my memories grew. Curses I never have wished for the Pale Hose... Unusual yes, but it's true. Both teams play for Chicago you see So I say, "Hey...Hey; Holy Cow; and Go...Go!!"

As a die hard Phillies fan, I still want to see Wrigley. By the way, one of my all time favs was Mr. Cub, Ernie Banks. He could give an attitude lesson to today's pampered cry babies. We used to be your farm team, giving away Ferguson Jenkins and Ryne Sandburg. Thanks for reading my stuff. Vince

Hey, I feel your pain, I am an Orioles fan. I remember when they used to play major league baseball. Joe

Ah yes, the boys of summer from the eyes of the long suffering Cub fan. You know I heard there was one of you left, I guess you're it. lol Go back and read Franklin Pierce Adams' "Tinkers to Evers to Chance" - the last Cubs romance. Or look up the book, "Best Team Ever" by Alop and Noel
