Now, I Am REALLY Disillusioned

This is a post about the Chicago Cubs. You don't have to read it.

I grew up watching the Chicago Cubs on WGN. I grew up with Harry Caray and Steve Stone. Sometime after he stopped making sense to people, Harry died. WGN replaced him with his grandson - Chip Caray. So for the first 20 years of my life, there was one constant - Steve Stone would provide color commentary for Cubs games. No matter what happened, I could count on that. Except on Jewish holidays. Steve took Jewish holidays off.

Some things happened a few years ago, and now Mr. Stone is the radio announcer for the Chicago White Sox. I heard him today, encouraging people to join the official White Sox fan club.

I would have been less mortified if Big Bird told me to smoke crack.
