what is the score? what is going on?

 

 

Score:

Universe 8 million, Cubs -2

Going on:

Another disappointing Cubs season

 

only an 88% chance of making the playoffs, WE'RE SCREWED

 

Don't put it past the Cubs to make even the seemingly surest of things an impossibility.

Yep. Losing is what this team does best!

 

Now you're learning.

Another disappointing Cubs season

 

only an 88% chance of making the playoffs, WE'RE SCREWED

 

12% chance of wiping and missing the playoffs

44% chance of repeating the disappointments of 2007 and 1998

22% chance of repeating the disappointments of 2003 and 1984

 

Odds of disappointment: Extremely high.

 

so 22% chance of making it to the World Series? I'll take it

well it really shouldn't be disappointing to you guys, since you're already sure that the cubs will flop.

Surely this is the final straw for Howry

 

No, it's not.

 

How many times have we thought it would be the final straw for Marquis and he's still around.

 

But cutting Marquis is a huge financial blow. That is not the case for Howry.

So if this is your outlook, why are you a Cubs fan? Actually, why do you root for any teams in general? Because coming into the season, there's a really, really good chance your team isn't going to win the championship which, according to you, means you'll be disappointed.

(quoted from memory, so probably off)

 

Slartibartfast: At my age, you begin to realize the odds of understanding what's really going on are almost nil, so just hang the sense of it and do what makes you happy.

Arthur: Do you?

S: Do I what?

A: Do what makes you happy?

S: No. That's where it falls apart. Nice in theory, though.

This is why I cheer for death.
