We should wait until we get down to about eight games or so. Then like in Major Leagues, we can get a poster of Ron Santo and remove a body part every time the number goes down.

I saw them earlier on the Chicago Tribune website but now they are gone? Maybe because they had the Cubs at 25 and Sox at 29. They must have been wrong and went back to the abacus to recalculate.

When it gets down to 3, they could have the real mccoy in the locker room. Once he's bald and legless, Cubs clinch!

Suntimes had the Cubs magic number in the paper the other day at 27 (I think). That is "to win the division" number I assume. If my math is correct...2 Cubs wins since then...and 1 Brewers loss puts the magic number at 24.

I'll be a little more comfortable when it is ZERO!

I'm not feeling great about that right now, thanks.

You show class at every chance you get frank.

I dont know whats more pathetic, your attmepts at humor or the fact that a fat ass like you making fun of anyones appearance.

I cannot fathom how someone could find any kind of humor in another person's disability, illness or physical challenge. For someone to be able to do so, even on a message board, there must be something inherently wrong with them.

Holy fucking hell. Its all toungue in cheek. Its a goddam message board, the CSFMB at that. If you don't have a sense of humor and realize that my comments about Santo are sarcastic, either don't fucking post here or put me on ignore. Jesus fucking Christ you Cub fans are uptight.

Take a look at Josh Blue. He is a decently well known comedian with CP and regularly makes fun of the condition. How about freak shows? Its a part of life, whether you like it or not.

I can't believe you Darkside. Why don't you show some class! Making fun of a legless mascot in the radio booth. Have you no decency?

Ok now they are back on chicagotribune.com front page, under the scuffle of sports writer and movie critic. Cubs at 23 Sox at 28
Edit: Now Bruce just said 19 to clinch the playoffs. I'm confused and I never got Magic anyways.

... In my opinion.

In the end, the magic number countdown is just one step on the road I have been predicting since April-THE CUBS END THE WAIT IN 2008!!! Only that road has been replaced by a railroad track, and the big blue party train, is steaming along. Dan Pleasac is out front, conductor hat on...I hear a CHUGGA, CHUGGA ,CHUGGA, CHUGGA, WOO, WOO....Oh, its a beautiful thing!!!

I have asked Danny Mac, to inquire with Dan Pleasac as to whether they might consider taking the lead of the Cubs and having a "Guest Conductor" on the post game show.
