I had burgers and beers with my friend Stuart (seen in the photograph above) at the Old Chicago Restaurant on South Colorado Boulevard here in Denver yesterday evening. As luck would have it, the Colorado Rockies and Chicago Cubs were both on the television screens there. The Rockies have the best record in the major leagues right now, and people are already beginning to talk playoffs. Stuart and I both agreed that since the baseball season was barely three weeks old, that might very well be a bit of a stretch. As if to validate our point, the Rockies were losing 5 to nothing to the Washington Nationals when we left. As for the Cubs, they were losing 6 to 5 to the Pittsburgh Pirates in the bottom of the 8th inning, with at least a fighting chance to win. As for my team, the South Side Chicago White Sox, they had already won a tremendous victory over the always tough Kansas City Royals. Now THAT is the team to watch, in my humble opinion.
