Dear Uncle Lou,
What on God’s green earth is happening with the Cubs?! They are self-destructing! Less than a week to go in the season, with a two game lead in the division, is not a good time to start slacking! And I’ll be real honest, Unc: the way this team has been playing lately, they don’t deserve to make the playoffs.
Yours in frustration,
Francesca
The Cubs won to maintain their hold on first place in the National League Central and my Michigan State Spartans stomped on the so-called “Fighting” Irish of Notre Dame to keep them winless this season. And just when I thought the day couldn’t get any better, the Milwaukee Brewers lost to the Atlanta Braves, thereby increasing the first place Cubs’ lead over the Brewers to 2 1/2 games. Ah, yes, October is nearing… my favorite time of year.
Oh, just one more thing about my Spartans beating up on the Irish… as I’ve said before, now that MSU has won against Notre Dame, my Spartans can lose the rest of their games this season and it wouldn’t upset me one bit. I don’t care what their record is so long as they beat Notre Dame.
EDIT: I received this “joke” via email. It is related to the topic of this post so I had to share it… mwahahahaha!
A seven-year-old boy was at the center of a courtroom drama
today when he challenged a court ruling over who should have custody of
him. The boy has a history of being beaten by his parents and the
judge initially awarded custody to his aunt, in keeping with child
custody law and regulations requiring that family unity be maintained
to the degree possible.The boy surprised the court when he proclaimed that his aunt
beat him more than his parents and he adamantly refused to live with her.
When the judge then suggested that he live with his
grandparents, the boy cried out that they also beat him.After considering the remainder of the immediate family and
learning that domestic violence was apparently a way of life among
them, the judge took the unprecedented step of allowing the boy to
propose who should have custody of him. After two recesses to check legal
references and confer with child welfare officials, the judge granted
temporary custody to the University of Notre Dame, whom the boy firmly
believes is not capable of beating anyone.
