My comment is less than 200 words. In fact, it’s 183 words. Now do you want to know how long your comment is? OK, it’s 119 words.
So let me get this straight. It’s not OK for me to write 183 words about a comic strip. But it is OK for you to write 119 words about me writing 183 words about a comic strip.
This calls to mind the old saying, “Who is more foolish? The fool or the fool who follows him?”
A Cubs fan responds: Bill and Jeff, I understand what you’re trying to do here, but I really think you took the lazy way out on this one. If you want to poke fun at the Cubs organization for 100 years and counting of failure, fine. Whatever.
But you’re essentially taking a cheap and easy shot at Cubs fans, lumping us all together as a bunch of sheep so blinded by the many accoutrements of “Cubbie” culture that we can’t see the reality of the situation.
And that’s just wrong: There are many, many knowledge baseball fans who continue to support the Chicago Cubs without resorting to curses or drunken lunacy to explain the team’s sad fate. The Cubs have won their division two years in a row and three times in the last five years. They won 97 games this season. Carlos Zambrano threw a no-hitter.
The point is: They’re a good baseball team. Just because we Cubs fans haven’t given up and bought Tampa Bay Rays caps doesn’t make us pathetic or “hypnotized” or whatever else it is that you’re implying.
