Yes, I'm Still On That...

So my new found infatuation with my old MySpace page has continued thru today.  This time I'm reading the comments from people I used to hang out with constantly 4 years ago, now I never see.  Is four years really that long?  Well some people are obvious leave behinds, like people from Cali, but some of these people live a town over and I never see.  What happened?  Did you get scared that I was gonna blog about...that's a random bullet, nobody's safe from that.  Did I piss you off?  I'm an asshole and you knew that, so getting pissed at me is part of the relationship.  So here is my mission today, I am gonna find all these people on Facebook and ask them why we don't kick it anymore, and all I want is a simple answer ("I don't know" is not an acceptable answer).  Ready, set, go.  Oh yeah, I'm gonna tag you in this blog link too so you understand why the hell I am contacting you after all of this time.  It's partially my fault, but mostly yours.  I'm still here.  In the meantime, enjoy another classic MySpace blog from October 4, 2007 directed towards Cubs fans after another tragic playoff loss.  Judging from the comments the previously anonymous text message responses are from Josh Burrell and Susie Karas (yes, I name names now, bitches).

Misery Cures Writer’s Block

Current mood:aggravated

Wow, I really had trouble this week thinking about something interesting to write this week for all of my fans (all zero of you...basically me). I was blocked. Two weeks and this asshole already has writer's block, can you believe it? Then at around 9:06 PM Central time last night it hit me...THE CUBBIES. Not even the Cubs, but their ignorant fans. It would be a lengthy feat to accomplish, that would require a mass amount of research (not really, but I don't just want to talk out of my ass, I would like some actual factuals thrown in there), so I talked shit to all my Cub fan friends via text message during the game last night to get the material I needed.

Now a lot of them didn't respond to my foolishness, but those that did, ha ha, it was like taking candy from a baby. I could talk shit about Cub fans for the next ten years based on the responses I got back last night. As most of you can tell, I am a White Sox fan. The Sox had a rough go at it this season, but aren't they allowed one since they won a World Series Championship in 2005. Technically, they have won more championships than the Yankees in the last five years, but I digress. I was skeptical of the Cubs making the playoffs this year, and rightfully so because they are "cursed," "jinxed," or my personal favorite, they just have miserably sucked the last two centuries. Once it was clear the Cubs were in the post season, I was fairly congratulatory towards Cubs' fans...until I congratulated a certain nameless manager at my job and he replied "...yeah and the best part about it is that we can throw it in the Sox fans' faces!!" Wow, was that really necessary? As a fan you should be more worried about the next team you play in the playoffs, not a team that is near the bottom of their division in a whole other league. Which goes into my first point, most Cub fans would rather hate the Sox than know what is going on with their own team. Ask a Cub fan to name last night's batting order, I bet they can't do it. Better yet, ask my girlfriend (sorry again, Julie) to name the Cubs' second baseman, or even what race is he...blank stare, or a "shut up Jon!" I know what you're saying right now, "but Jon isn't that what your doing right now?" My answer to that is no, this is completely different...no time to explain now...back to blogging.

One text I received was "how does your team go from being the best to damn near the worst in just two years? At least the Cubs have maintained a level of consistency." Exactly, a level of consistent shittiness. Team go from champs to chumps all the time, just look at the Bears this years. Some examples in baseball:  the 1998 Florida Marlins, the 2003 Anaheim Angels, the 2004 Florida Marlins, and even this seasons' St. Louis Cardinals. All teams have a cycle to go through (except the damn Yankees and Red Sox), the Cubs don't move in circular motion, just a straight line of shit-tacular proportions.

Another response I received is "...I don't see your team playing now." No you don't. You know why, cause they sucked this season. Nothing more nothing less. No excuses, they didn't perform, so they lost. Cub fans have more excuses for sucking than Monica Lewinsky and Bill Clinton. The Goat, the '69 Mets, Steve Garvey, and Steve Bartman. How about using you played like shit so you lost as an excuse. It works, trust me, and it's easier to let go of, which I know is hard for Cubs fans to do (when is Ryno, Mad Dog, and Gracie coming back?). You guys have nobody to blame but yourselves. You have created these so-called curses, and now everyone to ever put on a Cubs jersey believes in them. Once they get in pressure situations, they will hope the curse doesn't affect them and try to do everything in their power to not be jinxed , then they overplay a little bit, and BAM

Other response I got were "you're a fag," "fuck you," "I hate you," "whatever," and etc... Those pretty much speak for themselves. So to end, I would like to say with the sincerest of all meanings...GO ARIZONA!!! Fuck The Cubs. I'm out.
