Cubs Win! Cubs Win!

The Cubs are heading back to the postseason!  Not only that, but this is the first time in 100 years that they've made it in back-to-back years to boot.  AND, just to make it a little bit sweeter, they clinched today by beating the hated Cardinals, 5-4, at Wrigley.

It's a big first step, but it's just a first step... next, they've got to win the first round of the playoffs.  Then the league championship series.  THEN the World Series.

But boy, it was nice to see 'em win today!


...I hope.

UPDATE:  The view outside Wrigley Field just after today's game:

I was going to post something about "Give in to the dark side! The White Sox!" But then I looked it up, and they're American League.

So forget about that. The Designated Hitter rule is the work of the devil.

3 Root for the White Sox?  What sort of duck do you think I am?
