Graffitti on the Wall of the Wrigley Graveyard
Graffitti on the Wall of the Wrigley Graveyard
where the blues and country rocks
we have the pride of the City
we call them YOUR Chicago White Sox.
When we win, we win with honor
when we lose, we take it like a man
We don't blame our defeats on curses
and we never curse out a fan.
Our fans don't need Zoloft
They're all brothers of the sod
not like those north side whiners
who are just children of a lesser god.
Someone replied:
Home sweet home, Chicago. Hey, I LOVE the Blues Brothers.
Since there was a reference to Wrigley Field in the movie,
I guess Jake and Elwood were on a mission from a lesser god.
To wit, I replied:
Jake and Elwood are typical Chicago Cub fans. They lack gainful
employment, live in squalor, have done time in the slammer, drink
fortified wine, e.g., Thunderbird, Night Train, T.J. Swan, etc.,
and have relationship skills so suboptimal that women go after
them with guns.
For the record:
I lived in Durham, North Carolina for 8 years. Living in Durham
is much like living on the north side of Chicago. You get to
watch minor league Baseball.
