I'm not sure if you're being serious or not. "Bad luck" is a term used by losers to justify their incompetence. Winners aren't lucky, they simply put themselves in positions to win. This organization's insisting on using ever imaginable excuse they can for their ineptitude makes them very difficult to remain loyal to. I remain a fan anyway, mostly because I'm an idiot. typically teams that win it all have almost everything go right. that involves luck. you can't tell me the white sox had a great team last year or the marlins were great in 04. or that anaheim was great the year they won the world series. the cubs messed up by hanging onto wood too long and not dealing off prior for tejada. the cub messed up by not wanting to spend on guys like beltran, vlad, colon and pedro. the nefster & rusch signings sucked too.
