Friday Morning Diversion

Crap, it's been an ugly week to be a Cubs fan (especially surrounded by Sox fans here at the Chicagoist office). First, the Cubs crapped the bed against the Dodgers. Then, someone threw a hissy-fit at Dodger Stadium, damaging a water pipe and the Cubs reputation. Then, a Cub fan gave the rest of us a bad rap by selling his soul allegiance on eBay. THEN, Jon Stewart and his Daily Show cohorts took pot-shots at the Lovable Losers. So someone had to stand up for us, right? While Sarah Palin didn't appear on last night's SNL Weekend Update Thursday show, Cub-lover Bill Murray did in the middle of another great debate sketch and...well, it didn't get any better for Cubs fans.
