If only this meant something.

Just saw a piece on ESPN that one of many trade deadline rumors going around is that Aramis Ramirez is going to be traded. I guess we will know by 4:00PM tomorrow.

Oh god, I gave up on the Cubs in May. But it does feel kind of good that as much as we suck, we can still beat the Cardinals. If they trade Aramis I am going to be very upset.

Cardinals are in 1st place, 15 1/2 games in front of the Cubbies as I write this.

Enjoy your moment

What's that Emily Dickinson poem, "better to fail with land in sight/then gain my blue peninsula/to perish of delight"? That was from my memory and not checked, so cut me some slack if I'm off.

To be honest, I hadn't checked the standings for a couple of weeks before this thread sent me scurrying off to sportsline.com.

Reaching the 11th hour - that is worth something .

Now Roni, you and I both know that in my lifetime I will never know what reaching the 11th hour is like. *sigh* we all have our crosses to bear.
