Off To The Park

Kerry Wood and this writer each make their first Wrigley Field appearence today. Ironically, had the Cubs been smarter, both could have happened earlier. If the Cubs hadn't wasted time throwing Wood in relief last year for a dead team in August, he'd likely have been ready 4 or 5 weeks ago.

And, had this team done a better job in the offseason, there might have been some tickets purchased by this household.

And rumors continue that Mark Prior will throw 45 pitches in the minors tomorrow. Gee. So exciting.

Well, the one thing to be certain of, no matter how bad the Cubs are, and they are really bad, the Nats are worse. On the plus side, we don't hear crap from Frank Robinson about how he feels down. Frank's a class act. He deserves better.
