I have pulled over to the side of the road and shut off the fasten seatbelt lights. I am not asking anyone to exit yet but it is getting close.

Someone still has to be here with me... Anyone????

Hey Hey Holy Mackeral!!

Hank, God bless you for sticking it out.

This is a bad, bad situation. The longer Hendry is allowed to make personnel decisions, the worse it's going to be.

The "pay no mind" bandwagon is going to be full.

Quade showed me DA FIRE AND DA PASHIN when he went out to complain on the game being called. He knew, like all of us, that we were going to see "the tony campana game" but powerful forces conspired to deprive us of that,

Well we had some laughs and had a lot of fun but if anyone is still left you can please exit immediately. I am going to sit in the dark and silence until interleague play is offically over and then I am going to light the bandwagon on fire with myself strapped in it. Give it the old Viking funeral, if you will. In lieu of flowers please send donations to the 'Fire Jim Hendry for the Love of God Foundation'.

Just remember those first few glorious weeks when Castro and Barney were batting 1 and 2 and it looked like the middle infield and top of the order were going to be set for a while. Werent those good times, we were all laughing about the errors and justifing it since Castro was hitting the cover off the ball... Good times friends, good times indeed.

For shame. Now is the time to get on the bandwagon.

Cubs will go 22-7 in June.

I am still giving it thru interleague play but I have no faith that anything worthwhile will happen.

I could find one of my quotes from then but I am far too lazy. To recap:

I thought Aramis would play well in a contract season
I was excited about the starting pitching staff
I thought that Pena would rebound from his subpar season, feasting on bad NL central pitching.
A full season of Castro
A new manager that was awake for games.

Hey they set a major lead record for being average. 1-1, 2-2, 3-3, 4-4, 5-5, 6-6, 7-7, 8-8, 9-9, 10-10. Yes, good times I will fondly look back upon.

A story to tell the grandkids!
