Kendall Boo Boy

capte984e695021f4d369bc4629059ce85c7athletics_cubs_trade_fx105.jpgIt didn’t take long for the Chubby faithful to boo their new starting catcher.  While they cheered him during his first at bat – just 4 innings into the game when Kendall couldn’t make a tough play at the plate – they booed him.  Then when he came up in the 4th – they booed him.  Fans booed again in the 8th when he lost a ball in the lights.  Way to welcome your new catcher Cub fans.  I’m sure he is real excited to be in trash-ville.  He DID just get off a plane from another team and jump right into your ugly uniforms.  No excuses though – keep on booeing and drive another guy out of town!

And by the way.  The almighty Cubs lost the game and fell 4.5 out of first place.  What happened to 20 in a row?  It’s fun to be back!

Cub Fans on High

Luckily for us Cub haters – we know the ending to this story – and it’s not a happy one for Cub fans.  It feels like one of those years for a historic ‘choke job’ to occur once again.

So Cub fans, do yourselves a favor, and just shut up now before you are saying -

“well… wait til next year!”
