Wednesday Morning Quarterback: Whoa, What?

You’ve probably heard the saying that hindsight is 20/20 on Monday morning, so just imagine how well I can call ’em two days later on Wednesday. That’s right, it’s time for Wednesday Morning Quarterback, your weekly sports round-up.

I know I talk about how insane this is to begin with all the time, but how about those Tampa Bay Rays tied for the best record in the MLB with the Chicago Cubs. Who could have ever expected this last year? The Rays have been an under 0.500 team for their entire history. Maybe that name change wasn’t as stupid an idea as I initially thought it was…

Florida continues to hold on to first place mostly thanks to an amazing sweep of the Arizona Diamondbacks. Another challenge is upon us as we take on the slumping Mets (they did just win one against us though), the NL East second place Phillies, and the dominant-at-home Braves before coming back home to take on the anemic Reds. Go Fish, stay strong.

    The Cubbies are celebrating the 100th year of not winning a World Series this year. It’s not that they don’t have good seasons, they just haven’t been to a World Series in something like 60 or 70 years and haven’t won one in 100. The last year the Marlins won, 2003, was the year that fan caught the foul ball in a game vs. the Marlins that they came back to win and eventually win the series.

    Poor Chicago and Cubs fans, but I kind of want the streak to continue.

    It sure would be a shame to break such a long-standing tradition….
