Bye Bye Bartman Ball

Only Cubs fans can think up of something like this:

'Cursed' Foul Ball to Be Blown Up on TV

""That ball's gotta go," said DePorter, managing partner of the restaurant group, which organized the event as part of its annual tribute to Caray, the beloved Cubs broadcaster who died six years ago Thursday. "It's like the ring from 'The Lord of the Rings' and we're kind of like Frodo, trying to get it over with.""

I would watch if I could. Can someone tape it for me?

As it blows up, I shall make the sign of the cross, turn around 3 times and spit on the ground, just for good measure.

..they're airing it live on CLTV tonight. Can you believe this?

As a Cubs fan of over 30 years, I cannot believe the hype this year. I don't like it. It's much easier rooting for the Cubs when they're the underdogs.

Let's not forget the Cubs have not had 2 back-to-back winning seasons since 1971, and had not had 2 back-to-back playoff seasons since 1908.

Single game tickets go on sale tomorrow morning at 10AM!

I'm sure MSNBC (they aired it live on Keith Olbermann's show) and other assorted networks have played the video clip to death, but if you happened to miss it, I have it taped. You'll just have to wait until Dan goes out there to visit you before you get to watch it.
