The Cardinals just snuck in to the 2nd wildcard spot, we’ll see if they can hold on to it.

The magic number is 16. Opening day of bow season.

When the Magic Number gets below the average offensive production of the Bears, it’s time to start celebrating.

And the Cardinals, with their season of unbridled mediocrity, have moved into the second WC spot.

Sox fans. Great. Ohtani comes up to bat after getting struck out twice, no hits on the night. Jace Fry is pitching to him. Fans chant:
0 fer tani. Fry strikes him out. Epic.

The number question got me thinking of a couple of numbers.
The Town Out index of over 27,000 voters picked Sweet Home Chicago as the 2nd most beautiful city in the world and the most beautiful city in the USA.
Prague came in 1st in the world. To paraphrase a political statement from years ago “I have been to Prague and it is a beautiful city, but it’s not Chicago”.
Not sure who the Town Out Index folks are, but am certain Chicago is really a beautiful city.
