I don’t give a crap about baseball either. But yeah, I live in the Chicago burbs, and they were cursed by the famous owner of The Billy Goat Tavern, who, many many years earlier was refused entry into Wrigley Field with his goat. And yeah, we all know what happened the very next week.
And then? President Obama, from the very city whose team won the Series, invited the team to the White House on his last Friday in office, in January 2017. Most of them were there. But wait! There’s more! Because the owner of the Cubs, the Ricketts family are famous trump supporters, they made a repeat visit to meet shitler ( minus about 10 players who refused) at the White House. I’m not a Cubs fan.
I love baseball, so a little painful at first. Then, when the whole t-rump thing was added, it began another super essay on that horrible time in our nation’s history.

Owners are not the players. Only the temporary caretakers of the dream.

I personally think Comey earned some $$$$ to do what he did. That mofo move on his part cost her the election.
Baseball is just about religion here. We travel to cooperstown like others might journey to a holy city.
Reject or embrace the occasional misfits. Accept the curses and the blessings.
You’ll enjoy the city state battles more.
Comey fucked up. In a big way.
