Quick Post: Everyone gets a Trophy!

The Cubs and Sox have announced that, come their 6 games this summer, the two teams will be playing for the BP Crosstown Cup. How frickin lame is that.

They're mid-season baseball games, and while they do hold added importance for the fans, the players couldn't give two shits about the "rivalry." (Well except for A.J. who got punched that one time, and Ozzie who has repeatedly referred to Wrigley as a rat-infested toilet.) Trophies are for champions, not mid-season inter-league series.

(Michael Barrett is a jackass)

Oh look, they even got a sponsor! How completely awful.

Quick Post: Cubs Tax is dead

The much derided "Cubs Tax" that would've made fans of other teams pay a tax on tickets for the cubs to stay in Arizona is dead. "Support has died for funding a new Chicago Cubs complex in Mesa by charging a ticket surcharge at every Valley stadium that hosts Cactus League games."

As always, Fuck the Cubs
