Nah.  In fact, nahnahnahnah.

It's about an old Wrigley Field tradition: you expect it to snow on the
day of the first Cubs home game.  (As it did, this year.)  Season hopes
for the Cubs usually die while they're still wearing their winter
underwear.

Not that my spellcheck would know the difference.  (It does tell me that
it doesn't accept the spelling "spellcheck", but what does a dumb
program know?)

P.S.:  There are two educational benefits to being a Cubs fan.
First, it teaches you the triumph of hope in the face of adversity.
Second, it teaches you that if you can't win the game you can at least
learn to make the best excuses.
