Mixed Emotions From a Cardinals Fan: Cubs World Series Drought Hits 100

And I haven't even mentioned Ryan Dempster being an All-Star, Kerry Wood staying healthy, etc. So if you're banking on all that to happen again, I'll start laughing right now.

4) The window is closing. Fast.

The Brewers probably won't be as good next year, but the Astros and Cardinals should be better. Plus, you gotta figure the Diamondbacks, Mets, Braves, and Padres are all on their way to rebounding. Again, this was the year to win it. Atta baby Cubs!

3) All that hype for nothing

I have never seen so much hype over the beginning of the playoffs ever. And to hear so many Cubs fans talking crap about it, I love to see them shut up. People acted like the streak would inevitably end, and they just had to figure out how to celebrate.

2) Big Z Sucks

I hate Carlos Zambrano with everything that I am. Just to see him lose alone is worth my time. But to watch him get hit around for most of September, AND run into bad luck? Priceless. Nothing makes me happier then a Big Z tantrum, and he never fails to deliver.

1) HAPPY 100!!!

I will always have this on the Cubs. I'll admit it: the Cubs are better then the Cards right now. They are more talented, more healthy, and have more money.

But guess what? The two teams have won THE SAME amount of playoff games in the last two years. NONE. So it makes all those regular season wins sorta irrelevant.

So this is what is going on through my head. Do I point and laugh, or give my condolences? It's like watching a rival fall on their ass. Yeah, it's awesome at first, but then you kinda go over and offer help.

I decided I'm not going to offer help or condolences. Know why? Because I don't think Cubs fans need it. They're a strong bunch obviously, and I know they'll be back next year. And the year after that.

So with that, I tip my hat to Cubs fans, for coming back for more each spring.

But under my hat, I'm still laughing.
