A 2007 Cubs April in Haiku:
Batter Interfered.
Home losses and rising stars
with base over slid.
argh
Our star crossed April shows promise in the name of Felix, Theriot, Lilly, and Hill yet reminds us of our frailty with Blanco, Cedeno, and our record in 1 run games (now being reported in the standings as 1RG for no other reason than to taunt our tortured fan base.
As I write this, our May record and seemingly our fate for the rest of the season hinges on whether the Cubs can hold their slim lead against the Pirates in the bottom of the seventh.
This only further proves the existence of our fickle baseball gods and their cruel indifference to our fate.
