Cubs 2017. The Experienced Optimist Version

[Chuck to Chuck]

I love that I posted this for two reasons:

1) In case I need to be humbled a little bit. I was wrong. Chuck has never been wronger than I was above.
2) Ironically, "next year" isn't a pie in the sky, empty hope thing. But this year is still here. And we're 61 days from Christmas Eve, which is about 50 days from pitchers and catchers reporting.

Hannukah is Christmas Eve this year. Everything is coming up together.

Do Chinese restaurants make good Latkes?

Scallion pancakes are close enough for jazz.

Probably a 3 hour wait this year.

I like the Cubs. And I like baseball. They should win many games in the regular season, before kicking us in the nuts in October.

Four months until pitchers and catchers report.

Are you like this in real life or is this a thing you do for our entertainment? Choose your answer carefully...it depends on if I continue enjoying your existence.

I was definitely like that during the eighth inning or seventh inning or whenever I posted that on October 11.

He and Bruce Levine have about the same reaction time.
