remember george carlin had a great rif about baseball, wanted to go home, said wanted to go to the park, and that's what the cubs did. >> charlie: is it a metaphor for life in a way, that life is cruel? >> no. life involves a lot of losing. baseball is the great sport for democracy because it's the sport of a half loaf, not everyone gets everything they want. you go to spring training, every team knows basically it's going to lose 60 games. every team knows it's going to win 60 games. so the vaccines you play the whole marathon to sort out the middle 42. the you win 10, you're mediocre, if you win 11, you're apt to play in october. the difference between good, mediocre and no good is small in baseball. >> charlie: you didn't like harry caray. >> i did not. he was the cardinals broadcaster when i became a cub fan and one of the reasons i chose the cubs (laughter) he goes to chicago and becomes a door. there's a statue outside the ballpark. >> charlie: he leads the singing. >> a tradition he started and lasted. >> charlie: what's the difference between a cubs an white sox fan? >> the cubs
