Well, the baseball season is over--the regular season anyway. I like baseball, but I think this was a dull year. Maybe the playoffs will be better. There was a lot of consistency in the regular season, though. The Yankees and the Red Sox made the playoffs; they usually do. And the Washington Nationals--you remember the old saying: "Washington, first in war, first in peace, last in the American (well, the National now) League. Consistent, though--this was their second straight season with more than a hundred losses. For true consistency, though, you can't beat the Chicago Cubs. They last won the World Series in 1908. And this year, again, they didn't contend for the championship. So could they have a second century without a Series title? Seems perfectly possible to me, though of course I won't be here to see it. But maybe consistency isn't a virtue. What do you think? Ralph Waldo Emerson, a genuine smart cookie, wrote: "A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds." Suppose he'd like to manage the Cubbies?
