I really wish I had TWEETED THAT about my predicted headline for Gordo's recap, because I swear to God I said to my wife he was going to use this exact headline:

http://chicago.suntimes.com/baseball/7/71/501638/0h-155-million-cubs-new-ace-jon-lester-fall-cards-opener

Quote0-for-$155 million: Cubs, new ace Jon Lester fall to Cards in opener

Of course, the Cubs aren't going to go 0-162.

But after nearly four months of buildup and more than three hours of the stuff that counts, they're 0h-for-155 million.



What is 0-for-$155 million even supposed to mean?

It means the Cubs spent too much on the elite free agent pitcher that Gordo said they were too cheap and broke to sign anyway, stupid.

Also, if I remember my lessons from the Paul Sullivan School of Ace-Defining from the days when he went after Carlos Zambrano every week, Opening Day starts count as "big games" and the kind of games aces are supposed to win, so by failing at this, Lester gets disqualified from ace status, thereby making the Cubs $155 million investment a total loss.
I will vow, for the sake of peace, not to complain about David Ross between now and his first start next year- 10/26/2015

It means they're batting $.000. But if they get a hit in their next AB, they'll be batting $.000000006.

Every time Lester pitches, he's nearly 100 percent of the way to not being able to throw the ball to first base. Absolutely staggering.

That was 10+ years ago. Jesus...

On a related note, I can't figure this out:
QuoteFans lined up for many hours to buy the hot new video game "Halo 2." The game is pretty wild, if you're able to get Tara Reid to flash, you get an obscene call from Bill O'Reilly and Martha Stewart goes to prison.

And I still laugh that, of the teams on his "Seven teams most likely to underachieve" list, BC simultaneously picked four of them for the Final Four and the #1 most likely to underachieve team to win the title.
