That said, I like Chulk Hogan...a lot.<BR/><BR/>Susi,<BR/>I feel better about DeRosa every time I read something about him or talk to a Cubs' fan about him. No, I'm not an "Opener" kind of guy, as (for some reason) I prefer freezing my tail off with under 10,000 of my closest friends for game #2 or #3.<BR/>Sorry to be the bearer of bad news...but, yes, pack the winter gear.Paul Cousineauhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03490622970961409253noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11805401.post-7333502551562967172009-03-31T10:20:00.000-04:002009-03-31T10:20:00.000-04:00good piece PC. i loved the derosa part. its funny,...good piece PC. i loved the derosa part. its funny, its seems that i grow more in love with that pickup the more i hear cubs fans talk about it. i walked into chik-fil-a the other morning to grab some breakfast before work. a cop who already placed his order notices my tribe hat and ask, "are you an indians fan, or just like the hat". i told him, "true fan. i dont think the indians fall under the umbrella of team hats you wear for style points" he laughed and i wondered if i had just popped an attitude with a cop. he then went on to talk about how much us taking derosa from his beloved cubbies broke this heart. this is in birmingham alabama of all places. but he went on for a good 3 minutes, expressing the torment in his soul at the loss of derosa. i left there feeling all the greater about having derosa on our team. and for the chicken biscuit i was about put in my face. <BR/><BR/>love your stuff pc. you gonna be there for opening day? im making the trip from alabama. please tell me i dont need to pack the winter wear.csusihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02575419830013173006noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11805401.post-14113492350274732312009-03-31T09:58:00.000-04:002009-03-31T09:58:00.000-04:00Might I suggest...
