Grieving fans left candles, flowers, cans of Old Style and some nasty notes to the Cubbies at a makeshift memorial to the 2008 season outside Wrigley Field. The shrine, at Waveland and Sheffield, was started by Murphy's Bleachers workers upset at getting drummed out of the playoffs. One letter, short and to the point, stood out: 'Dear Cubs,' it began...'Thanks for nothing.'Me? Really, i'm only upset at myself. I allowed myself to get legitimately excited before they made it out of the first round. I should have known better. Ah well, everybody is upset now...but come next Spring, 101 years ain't nothing but a number. Please God, just don't let the flipping White Sox go all the way...salt, wound, you get what i'm saying. GO BEARS!
