Do you hear that? The delightful birdsong floating on the wind? Do you smell that? The aromatic bliss of freshly-brewed coffee and delectably baked cakes?
And do you see that? It’s the FIRST DAMN PLACE CHICAGO CUBS:
Say hello to your FIRST PLACE CHICAGO CUBS.

To accomplish that feat, the Cubs not only had to beat the Cardinals last night, they had to sweep the Cardinals this weekend. And they did, with Kyle Hendricks pitching a Maddux on Friday, Taylor Davis and Javy Baez playing hero on Saturday, and the Cubs bludgeoning the Cardinals last night on a national broadcast.
Too sweet. Too sweet. Let’s enjoy:
The #Cubs are 16-4 in our last 20 games! #EverybodyIn
