    bad karma

    The Cubs were swept because of bad karma. When Bud Selig awarded them two extra home games in Milwaukee against Houston after Hurricane Ike, the Cub fans booed the handful of Astros fans in attendance. Sure, Zambrano got a no-hitter against a team of players who had two hours of sleep following the hurricane, but that was their last celebration of the season.

    Sometimes justice does prevail.
