Bring it on Breen!

You and Barack and your fellow Democrats can have the White Sox and their success.  But, the truly Catholic (and catholic, BTW) baseball team in Chicago is the Cubbies.  With our crucifixes, Catholics remember and embrace Good Friday everyday in our homes and sanctuaries as we contemplate Jesus up on the cross.  And, Cub's fans have experienced one long Good Friday.  John, don't you know that World Series championships and such are for the next life, not this.  Psalm 146 (from morning prayer this morning) puts it perfectly:

Put no trust in baseball franchises,

in mortal players in whom there is only disappointment.

Take there breath, they return to clay

and there plans that century come to nothing.
