Congrats to the Mets. That 7 NLCS game losses in a row for the Cubs and 4 in row at Wrigley.

Did you see the AWFUL baseball movie “Rookie of the Year”? In it some kid falls on his arm and suddenly has a 150MPH fastball so he becomes the Cubs closer (they don’t even teach him how to throw a strike first). And at the end they show him with a Cubs World series ring on. I think the NLCS in the film was even against the Mets.

The C-list actor who starred, on his own apparently, decided to show up today to cheer on the Cubs, wearing a jersey with his character’s name on it. That’s bad juju. What they needed was Michael J. Fox or at least the guy that played Biff.

The good news: CHC’s going to get over the hump soon, they’re built to be perennially in the mix.

The bad news: I don’t see the MYM repeating; this is a truly incredible streak they’re on.

I did not see that flick, it looked bad in the previews.

This whole “Back To The Future” stuff is ehhh.
