An Irish Wake for the 2015 Cubs

Today we gather not to mourn the loss of the 2015 Chicago Cubs, but to celebrate their life. We knew you for a far-too-short 199 days. I remember watching your birth on a chilly Sunday night in Chicago. Even though it wasn’t that long ago, it felt like a lifetime. I remember the giddy anticipation and the subsequent frustration of losing to the Cardinals. It felt so long ago, Adam Wainwright made the start for the Cardinals. It felt so long ago, Phil Coke struck out two batters. It felt so long ago, Mike Olt started at third base.
