BCG, except for MLB, I think we'd get along quite well.

And I get along with everyone (or try to, anyway), no matter what their MLB loyalties, though I am required by the practice of my religion to give you an extra ration of shit if you're a Cubs fan. But even that only goes so far; I was actively rooting for the Cubs in '08 (other than in their head-to-head games with the Cardinals); having a team go exactly a century between World Series wins was just too
right not to. Of course the Cubs shit all over our hopes because, hey, that's what the Cubs do, it's their job, you've got to respect them for it.
Cheers,
