“Whose turn is it tomorrow?” —Jim Deshaies”
Sometimes it gets old having to deal with the sideshows that come with the circus always being in town. The Cubs aren’t yet in Yankees/Oakland A’s territory yet, let alone the North Dallas Forty-Five, but there always something there to remind me that this ain’t my sainted grampa’s Cubs. Or are they? He had Hack Wilson and guys like that in his past. Hell, grampa worked part-time as a bagman. He used to take me on his rounds.
Just think if there had been 24/7 paparazzo coverage of Wilson, let alone the Babe or that old Georgia Peach.
