pain, continued

i have a hangover. my head hurts. a nice physical manifestation of the pain of the cubs getting swept.

i feel stupid for having been optimistic this whole season.

winning the division looked like barely a struggle for the team. scoring a run was beyond difficult once oct 1 hit.

i dont get it. was it the pressure, the expectation of 100 years? it didnt seem to bother the guys all year. i spent enough time this week yelling at the team for playing poorly. there is no point in reaming them after the fact.

there is not going to be a logical explanation for their collapse. larry hagman asked me this morning, "why don't you just find a new team?"

if only it was that easy.
