Check Please

I had my fill two-fold Tuesday night.

Bella Luna Cafe, one of my favorite hangouts, offered up the perfect chaser to Big Z’s and Aaron Heilman’s ghastly performances: linguini and mussels covered in a spicy marinara sauce, yum!

The Cubs were cooked, of course, before dinner was served. And my dish couldn’t have tasted any better unless garnished with Aaron Heilman’s meatball to Elijah Dukes.

By the time Washington opened a 9-1 lead the Cubs were trumped on the cafe’s television in favor of the Little League World Series, and that’s what this season has come to, watching little twerps compete in Williamsport, PA.

We know the Cubs’ season is over, besides its nine-game deficit in the Central, because they’re playing like it.

Losing this badly to the Nationals can only mean one thing: our Cubbies have quit, or at least it appears this way.

Whatever the case, I’ve had my fill…check please.
