The Cubs reached .500 Saturday for the first time since June 5, and if I had to offer one word to describe the emotion that accompanied the news, it would be, “yay,’’ but without a perky exclamation point.
Much better: Yay?
As in, what does it really mean?
Or, what do you take us for?
Then, predictably, the Cubs lost Sunday to fall to 65-66. Back to the drawing-even board.
If you’re a Cubs fan, or even an unbiased observer, you have to ask yourself if there’s anything about this team that suggests they have a late-season run in them.
