I sat at work today, occasionally looking at the score of today’s Cubs vs. Rockies game. After a 4 run deficit in the 1st inning and a 8 run deficit by the middle of the 4th inning, I had all but written off this game. At least we can take care of them tomorrow and salvage the [...]

As I laid in bed last night, satisfied with the Cubs extra-inning win and delighted with the fact that Soriano slapped a base hit, I created the following scenerio in the form of a lucid dream:
I imagined pausing the world after Fontenot touched homeplate to win the game. Soriano and I
