About	I am a Chicago Cub fan. Yes, I know... our back's are up against the wall. I went into work a few days back and while doing my little bit this and little bit that before getting on with the night's chores... I looked up and saw a cupcake sitting on my shelf. I pulled it down and actually laughed out-loud. I do not laugh out-loud very often. I smile and nod and maybe chuckle a tad... but the cupcake made me laugh out-loud. The St. Louis Cardinals are hated rivals of the Chicago Cubs. The Cubs v. Cardinal games verge on bloodshed every time they play. This year the Cubs made it to post season and the Cardinals did not. This year, I won $2.00 Yank betting Cardinal fans the Cubs would win the season series. We did. Of the 16 games we played against the nutty St. Louis Cardinals we won 11. That is a .686 winning percentage. Over the years/decades/centuries the Cubs have defeated the Cardinals 1,137 times with the Redbirds winning 1,072 encounters. All this adds up to what I am posting: I do not know who gave me the cupcake. I do not care. There are 2 VERY determined and aggressive Cardinal fans in the workplace... there is only 1 bleeding Cubbie blue. I don't know where the cake came from... I do know the person got the sentiment dead-on. And yes, the chocolate icing was edible....

Nice dissertation here. before i read yer about i almost thought that the chocolate icing was dog poo and that u were dissin the Cardinals. But, i guess in yer own unique way u were dissin the Cards. Maybe next year them O's will wake up and I'll have somethin to swak about.
I'm still pullin for my Ravens, we're 3 and 2 now, yea yea I know the Packers went 5 and 0 yesterday, but to me the Ravens ROCK.
