In a really weird way, this makes perfect sense to me, a Chicago Sports Fan.
If horrible, talentless Jerry Angelo can keep his job... if monotonous and red-flag throwing Lovie Smith can as well... then it should mean that deserving and overlooked Andre Dawson will actually be elected to the Hall Of Fame today.
Right?
Something awful happens in the world of Chicago Sports, then it should be balanced out with something... nice.
In other words, if a million pigeons shit on me at Soldier Field, then my feet shall not step in the dog crap on the sidewalks of Wrigley.
That's karma, dude.
Good luck, Andre!
Next: Cards sign 30 year old Matt Holliday for one hundred and twenty mil for 7 seasons.
Back in November of '06 when 30 year old Alfonso Soriano signed his one hundred and thirty six mil for 8 years contract, remember how awesome that was?
I know, I know...
But I wonder if Cardinal fans were thinking, "Damn, we're gonna have to play that guy for the next 8 years!"
'Cause that's what I'm thinking about Matty boy.
