This season the Cubbies are ghastly.
The team’s overpaid something vastly.
.    Against ne’er -do-well clubs,
.    these error-prone schlubs
are beaten so bad they’ll end lastly.
The Cub fan deserves our attention.
Their club’s always out of contention.
.    Yet they patiently cheer
.    as they wait til next year.
What they need is a team intervention.

Oh, they hit rock bottom decades ago … and since then, I hear, jackhammers have been lowered into the hole to allow more effective digging.
There is a 12 step program–and it leads away from Wrigley.
