Meigs Curse: Year #1.

The curse works like a charm... the Cubs were beautifully defeated. This
pilot is happy.

That whole episode was a tragic expose of Chicago citizens though. I cannot
believe those people are this upset and willing to literally kill this guy
over a stupid ****ing BASEBALL GAME. What a bunch of morons.

I worked for (and with) the Chicago Tribune from '88 to '94. I can believe
this, and more.

Remember, Chicagoans are people that allow an elected official to destroy
public property -- and DON'T recall him.

Chicagoans rant and rave about horrendous traffic, while continuing to
support and allow toll-ways. (Imagine -- they stop 16 lanes of traffic to
collect forty cents -- and wonder why they have traffic jams!)

Chicagoans routinely sit in their cars for 90 minutes, in order to commute
20 miles.

Chicagoans are not the "best and brightest". The smart ones leave.

If I remember correctly, many years ago a Colombian goalie was killed
when he missed stopping a goal and they lost in the World Cup.

Go Red Soxs! (That ought to start a OT thread)

It wasn't that long ago, it was when the men's World Cup was held here
in the states, and his "transgression" for which he paid with his
life, was that he caused an "own goal", and the Columbian team lost to
the US. An own goal means that by accident, a defender puts the ball
in his own goal. It can be a deflection from a shot or a shanked
clearance kick or whatever. It doesn't matter how the ball gets in
the goal, it still counts.

Supposedly the man's assailant said to him "thanks for the own goal,"
and shot him.

yea, it was an "own goal".

I'm a Chicagoan.............(so)
I don't want to persecute that fan (yeah, right).
This whole tiff was made by the media...(oh boy).
Most of us would have done the same thing..........(my son included).
So let's lay off this guy and worry about more important stuff........(maybe).
