The Best Record In Baseball

Yep, Chicago Cubbies are up on top.  Woo hoo!  It's almost the All Break and the Cubs have a better record than any other team in baseball.  How did this happen?  WHO CARES?  Well, really, I care.  And so do Cubs' fans everywhere.

But we still don't talk about what it might mean.  Superstitious?  Us?  Nah!  We just want to maintain a calm enjoyment of the remainder of the season.  No need to get excited.  No, this is just a wonderful sport with a bunch of fun loving guys.  

OMG! The Cubs have the best record in baseball!!!!!

Sorry, couldn't help myself.

Favre Wants to "Unretire"...

...again.  Who didn't see this one coming?  This is a guy who just doesn't know how to give it a rest.  But this time, instead of welcoming him back with open arms, the Green Bay Packers response has been to ignore, and then politely decline, Favre's pleas...and phone calls...and text messages.  Yep, they have let him know they have made their decision to move forward, and that they will not jump when he calls any longer.  Move along, nothing to see here folks.  EXCEPT...

Except that now there is the possibility they may say "okay", reactivate him and then trade his sorry old butt to another team. 

Wait, did you just say Brett Favre might be available?  I mean, so what if he retires again in another year.  So what if he's old.  I mean, he's Brett Favre.  How do you think you'd look in blue and orange, Brett?  And why not?  I mean, McMahon went to Green Bay after he left the Bears, turnabout is fair play.  Besides, anything has to be better than having Rex Grossman, right?  Right?
