Cubs Show Some Love



Today the Cubs did a good deed and signed Joe Borowski to 2 years at $4.3 million. I consider him our team MVP for last year. No other pitcher in baseball has done more with less. Its not a knock on Joe, its more to do with heart and determination. I have seen far more gifted athletes throw away their talent because they believe everything should be handed to them on a silver platter. That they dont need to earn anything, or to try their best.

Joe Borowski is a player who kids can look up to and see themselves. Not the best pitcher by most standards but he more than makes up for it with a never give up attitude. Any thing is possible if you just try your best.
