JJ - this logo looks a lot like MY Cubbies logo - my grandpa played catcher with the Cubs farm team. Joke in our family was that my grandfather didn't die of a clot in his heart but from listening to the Cubs on the radio for 20 some odd years! Two days ago I saw a guy at the store with a t-shirt that said "1908 - Well, Maybe Next Year!" I so cracked up! I said, "Cubs fan"? He smiled and shook his head. (I thought it was 1948 they last one but hey 08 or 48, doesn't make much difference!

Since my "family's university" is Purdue, and live in Sacramento, home of the Sacramento Kings basketball team, I'm used to rooting for LOSING TEAMS! I've told Char I think I'm bad luck, so maybe I SHOULD root for the Canadiens! That way, the Leafs would have a fighting chance!
