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.
