Z no no - to asterisk or not?

by Joe Doyle on September 15, 2008

Sometimes lady luck swings your way, sometimes not so much. But she is crucial to winning everything – those die-hard Chubs fans will tell you that the WHITE SOX were “lucky” in 2005.

So was lady luck looking down on the little teddy bear Cubs when the league somehow managed to persuade Houston management to move the game to Wrigley North?

I think so.

I also think there should be an asterisk next to Zambrano’s name in the history books. In a more hostile playing environment, his chances for no-no would have been just so-so. Especially since the ‘Stros looked more than just a little fatigued from the last-minute trip.

I don’t think Z’s no-hitter should get an asterisk…

I think the entire Cubs team should get an asterisk…just because THEY SUCK!

The Cubs still suck.
The Cubs still suck.

They really really really really really really suck.

The Cubs. Still. Suck.

I thought it was a thing of beauty. And I thought “Ozzy” musta loved it too. ;

Zambrano is on HGH.
