It is time to state the obvious. You can’t give up 24 runs to the Cubs in three games. For all of you math majors out there, that’s eight runs a game.
Putrid. Even in the only win of the series, Dillon Gee allowed four runs in an inning.
Look, I’m not going to go on a big rant here. The weather sucked, your owner kicked you in the mommy-daddy button, and somehow last year’s best starter hurt his heel in the third inning just when it looked like he had turned a corner. It’s a rough combination to deal with.
This is the only pass I am giving you this season. It’s time to man up and give us a better effort.

Hey dummy,
Don’t you know how many cool things the number 24 has going for it? Allow me.
- It is an even number divisible by 1,2,3,4,6,8, 12, and….24! > most of which are pretty sweet numbers I’d say.
- the shot clock in the NBA is 24 seconds. Do you not appreciate Kevin Durant and Dirk Nowitzki? Psht.
- 24 is the number of wins the Mets will have some time in the future.
- 24 hours in a day. Do you not like days? Are you an anti-dayist?
I await your email response.

My email is broken sir so I will have to respond here.
You forgot that it is also 3 touchdowns and a field goal in football.
With all due respect, it is also the age you will be when you get your GED.

You may win this time, but it’s only 2 hours, 12 minutes until Friday!
