[michael returns home from work, checks his phone messages, email, browses web, etc]
"ooh, I wonder how the cardinals did.."
[checks mlb.com]
"oh wow, its still on.  3 to 1 cubs in the 6th.  I should watch."
[michael turns on television, changes to fox sports.]
"make that 3 to 2 cubs in the 7th.  hmm, bases are loaded, I hope we are at bat.  damn, no, its the cubs.  how many outs?  1.  okay, well, we can get out of this."
[pitcher pitches]
[batter hits it]
"oh..  this could be bad.  please be caught"
[ball goes out of the park.]
"...damn."

Im sorry everyone.  at first I thought it was just coincidence.  I mean, I know I never seem to see them win, but I didnt realize that it was my fault.  I think maybe I really should just stop watching.  except I am actually going to be at the game on sunday; weve already got the tickets, so I wouldnt bet on that game if I were you.  just thought it would be fair to warn you.
