Lines: 14 I'm not one of the people who claimed the Cubs "bought" themselves a team. No more than did the Mets or any other team in this crazy market. Nor am I gloating: the season hasn't started yet, so far as I know, and I'm not going to say much in the way of "Tee-hee" until the Mets have a 24-game lead going into mid-September. If they do. I mean, I'm a fan, but I'm not crazy either! As for the "puny offense": come on, ChiFan, be fair. Yes, the Cubs were better than the Mets: you beat the hell out of us. In fact, the only team that kept us out of first place was the Cubs because of those beatings. I suspect it will be a bit different this year. Ken Wolman whuxi!ktw
