+pcpilot 181 Posted October 15, 2003 My mother was born 1919 in Illinois in a small town called Danville a ways south from Chi-town. She was a fan of the Cubs since her childhood. You couldnt help but grin when you watched her watching a cubs game. I never saw anyone offer so many comments or get so excited, hehe. I had the pleasure of taking her to a Padres game here in San Diego that hosted the Cubs back in 1994 I think it was. I still wear her Padres hat I bought her. (The Cubs lost...) She never got to see them win a series before she passed away in 1998. Now that the Cubs are finally going somewhere, I couldnt help but think about her and how pleased she would be to see how well they are doing. Even if they didnt take the series, she, like all true Cubs fans, would still feel mighty good about their team. Im gonna watch the next game they play and toast the Cubs for ma... This ones for you Mom... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Seawolf 0 Posted October 15, 2003 Dude is that kid who messed up the foul ball catch gonna get messed up after the game or what.LMAO I'm not a big baseball fan, but if its my home team and the guy is making a play the last thing I want to do is screw him up on the play. What a complete idiot. Cubs deserve to lose that game after letting the marlins score 8 runs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
